He received his Ph.D. from the University of Tubingen, Germany in 1994, and has taught and researched there as well as at the Universities of Konstanz, Weingarten and Bielefeld before moving to the U.S. in 2003. He is committed to an integrative understanding of cultural history. Awarded major prizes and fellowships from the German Bundestag, the German Research Council, the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton and the John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation, he has authored four monographs and edited or co-edited six volumes, among other on electoral culture and suffrage reform in pre-1914 Prussia (1994), on the history of masculinity in modern Germany (1996), on the new military history (2000), on discourses and practices of mass killing (2004), on male bonding and the ideal of comradeship among German soldiers in the twentieth century (2006), and on the local history of the Holocaust (2011). His most recent monograph Belonging and Genocide: Hitler's Community, 1918-1945 (2010) reveals how the longing for community turned a civilian society turned into a genocidal society. While continuing his studies in the connection of collective violence and collective identity as well as on the perpetrators of genocides, he is also engaged in a book project on Body Aesthetics and Social Identity in Modern Global History.
