Biography
After graduation, he studied law, economics, philosophy and musicology. In 1921 he received a doctorate, after which he worked as a journalist in various Vienna newspapers, as well as in the German-language press of Prague .
In 1933, Deutsch's book, Das Räderwerk des Roten Betriebes, was among the books burned by the Nazis .
Being an opponent of Nazism, after the Anschluss, Deutsch immigrated through Switzerland to the UK and settled in London. In the following years, he published there under the pseudonym Oswald Dutch a series of popular science books about current political events - in particular, a book on the Anschluss, a critical biography of Franz von Papen , and also a collection of Hitler's Twelve Apostles, which included biographical essays about as they were described by Dutch, "12 Apostles of Hitler." The last of these books also attracted attention from the party office of the NSDAP , led by Martin Bormann [2] .
After World War II, Dutch worked as an economic observer, including in partnership with BBD and ORF .
