Live and act
After attending school, von Hoven studied law . He then completed the legal preparatory service. In 1928 he presented his dissertation , supervised by Friedrich Oetker , in Würzburg , which dealt with the subject of pimping . In the 1930s he joined the Flick Group , where he held management positions.
During the Second World War, von Hoven, as authorized signatory and head of the social economy department at Maxhütte, was responsible for the recruitment and deployment of prisoners of war and foreign workers, including numerous forced laborers , in this branch of the Flick Group.
At the end of the war, von Hoven became an American prisoner of war. In the following years he was interned in Nuremberg and used as a witness in the Nuremberg trials . In 1946, because of his role in the use of forced labor in the Maxhütte, he was considered as one of the possible candidates for the Flick trial, which was then in preparation , in which the use of "slave labor" was a main charge.
In the paperback of public life, von Hoven is listed in the post-war period up to 1960 as managing director of the Bavarian Mining and Hüttenmännischer Verein eV.
