The present volume explores the sometimes-ambivalent attitude of Dominicans - individually or as a group - towards the ideologies that have dominated Europe in the "short" twentieth century, such as nationalism, fascism, Nazism and communism. Did Dominicans propose strategies of resistance, accommodation or collaboration, and what was their underlying motivation for doing so? How did their stance affect the position of the order and the church, both on the local and the general level? How did this influence their self-understanding ( ad intra ) and their public image ( ad extra )? Did this generate conflicts within the order? Were there long-term consequences, perhaps even until today? In short, how did they live up to the motto of the order, Veritas , in a context of diverse ideological claims to truth?

The file format PDF always displays a book page identically on any hardware. This makes PDF suitable for complex layouts such as those used in textbooks and reference books (images, tables, columns, footnotes). Unfortunately, on the small screens of e-readers or smartphones, PDFs are rather annoying, requiring too much scrolling.
This eBook uses Watermark-DRM, a „soft” copy protection. This means that there are no technical restrictions to prevent illegal distribution. However, there is a personalised watermark embedded in the eBook that can be used to identify the purchaser of the eBook in the event of misuse and to provide evidence for legal purposes.
