Abstract
This chapter applies transnational insights regarding urban and regional space to what appears at first sight to be a diametrically opposed context: Nazi German exterminatory policies of supranational expansion across central and Eastern Europe.1 The space+race planning activities of Nazi Germany are of particular importance for understanding why transnationalism, while apparently functioning in German cities today much as it does in other European metropolitan environments, has nonetheless emerged out of a rather different earlier set of contexts than can be found in (say) Milan, Madrid or London. Anthropologist Ruth Mandel, for example, has demonstrated the legacy of Naziera citizenship ideologies for Turkish-German urban identities in Berlin today.2.
