The underlying belief informing the German utopian novel in the first half of the 20th century was that technological progress would create a strong Germany and a better world. The genre-typological investigation undertaken in this study indicates that despite partial proximity on the content plane the authors of these novels hoped to bring this about by different means from those advocated by the National Socialists. The fact that their visions were not completely suppressed in the Third Reich has to do with the surprising liberality of the book market. Accordingly, the German utopian novel was able to ensconce itself in a niche and lay the foundations for postwar German science fiction.
