Foreign Labor in Nazi Germany (2015)
(p.4) The Nazi party's philosophy and policies regarding labor were fundamentally shaped by the circumstances of its maturation, especially the German inflation and depression. Therefore, it is necessary to examine the legislative actions of the Nazi party after it assumed power in 1933 to show the type and degree of controls that the Nazis established over the German workers prior to the war and subsequently extended to the foreign workers, and to illuminate some of the later inconsistencies in the foreign labor program.

(p.5) In the labor field, the initial actions of the new Nazi government in 1933 reflected the primacy of political goals over all others.

(p.22) The general war plans of the Nazis, the partial mobilization of the economy, the Nazis' unwillingness to demand a heavier sacrifice from their own people, the lack of coordination and organization of the party and government, and the Nazi reluctance to draft women all pointed to one solution. The immediate manpower shortage had to be solved with foreign labor.
