President Hindenburg designated the infamous Adolf Hitler as a legal official of Germany in 1933 without knowing the consequences would be deadly. Manipulative and deceiving, Hitler ruled an era filled with hate, horror, and history for today’s generations. Magazines and scholars such as: Thomas Grant, Nathan Stoltzfus, Benjamin C. Sax, and Time focus on Hitler’s regime, and how the evil dictator took over an entire country, regardless of how people felt. With this idea in mind, President Hindenburg foolishly elected Hitler as Chancellor, stemming …show more content…

As the Chancellor of Germany, Hitler would have the ability to make mass decisions affecting the lives of more than just his country. Hitler’s deceiving front fooled a large portion of Germany due to his many friends and vibrant personality. Nevertheless, this did not fool Hindenburg, but he allowed him as Chancellor anyway. The President decided against his initial decision to refrain from allowing Hitler to be in charge, which changed the course of history while affecting the lives of millions. Benjamin C.

Germany, left with practically one voting option if they wished to live, faithfully stood by Hitler’s side. Allied with not only the military and government, Hitler drew in additional back up and attention from the famous, such as, “Alfred ‘Hugenberg, a multimillionaire press and film baron often described as a rabid nationalist, seized the party's reins in 1928 and led it to a fateful alliance with Hitler” (Grant, 26). Hitler excelled in popularity and sweet talking, making the task of finding a union practically effortless. Nathan Stoltzfus’ ‘Hitler’s Compromises’ deliberates more on this topic by analyzing how the autocrat made settlements with people, leaving him to seem as though he was compromising. Stoltzfus continues to back up Grant’s support theory regarding Hitler when he discusses how the Nazi party preached for Hitler; they followed his dictatorship no questions asked, especially when it came to speaking to the Jews. “They are calling for you out there. They want you to come back- this is German Loyalty” (Stoltzfus 88). So involved in their dictator Hitler, the Nazi party not only killed, but degraded millions of Jewish people, proving their loyalty to Hitler. The man known for his way with words was also feared for them. Time Magazine’s ‘Hitler, Man of the Year’ portrays the harsh truth of people walking on eggshells when stating, “His shadow fell

Keegan offers a fresh and perspective on Hitler's strengths and deficiencies as a military leader. The figure that emerges from this analysis is more soldier and front-fighter than politician. Hitler politics was war, at least the preparation for war, and his unswerving goal was to realize the victory that seemed near in 1918. While stubbornness epitomized his larger strategy, meddling with details increasingly substituted for professional tactics. This, Keegan argues, was superficial generalship, haphazard, amateurish.

In the wake of the second world war, the consensus amongst historians was that the power of Hitler in the third Reich was that of omnipotent and outright, and his control over such was definitive. This has been reason of debate following the emergence of interpretation through revisionist Historians such as Martin Broszat. Broszat argues that Hitler was a weak and indecisive leader dependent upon the actions of his subordinates through which manipulated him by way of their competing and overlapping power structures. This has found its way to the conclusive ‘structuralist’ vs ‘intentionalist’ debate for which historians such as Karl Dietrich Bracher take acceptance to the fact of competition amongst rival power structures however lays greater

Sebastian Haffner, in his memoir Defying Hitler, describes the rise of National Socialism within Germany during the interwar years that were plagued with thoughts of war, poverty and defeat. Lives that previously had purpose and were connected through mass culture surrounding the ‘Great War’, were now barren. This war-ravaged void left behind from World War One, that had been previously placated by political headlines, war reports, stock quotes and sport statistics, left the German people deprived of any personal fulfilment and balance within their private lives. This deprivation allowed Hitler’s nationalist message, and propaganda for the Nazi regime, to pervade German thoughts, winning a battle over the German minds. This battle, as Haffner

For a brief timeframe in 1932, the general population trusted that Hitler's ascent to power would bomb because of the quantity of seats in the Reichstag that diminished from two-hundred thirty seats to one-hundred and ninety-six seats between July 1932 and November 1932. In this arrangement, Hitler could be chancellor of Germany in return of him supporting Hindenburg politically. Amid the twentieth century, the Germans confronted a ghastly monetary sorrow amid which time the general population lost trust in their administration, and exploiting this open door, Hitler rose to control.

Save AS History – Examination Question on The Domestic policies of the Nazi state How successful were Nazi methods to indoctrinate and control the German people? (30 marks) From the moment the Enabling Act has been passed, the Nazi regime has effectively been turned into a dictatorial one. Indeed, at the beginning of Hitler’s rise to power a vast population of Germany was engaged with nationalist politics believing it would reshape and revolutionarise the country. However, Hitler knew that in order to reach his ultimate goal in creating the “Thousand Year Reich”; he could not depend on the sudden yet temporary surge of excitement of the German public; but rather, he had to convince the Germans of the Fuehrer leadership and make the Nazi ideology an unquestionable existence.

Hitler’s Germany: Origins, Interpretations, Legacies Second Edition by Roderick Stackelberg, aims to go where no other historian has gone. In the author’s own words, the purposes of his book include, “to provide an accurate and reasonably complete narrative of the period of Nazi Rule, the events leading up to it, and its aftermath; and equally important, to provide an interpretive framework that makes some sense out of this extraordinary episode in German and European history.” (iv) This is a tough goal to achieve given the all of the relevant events and the chronology of them.

In this source analysis, I will look into the speech given by German Social Democrat, Otto Wels on March 23, 1933. It should also be mentioned that Thomas Dunlap translated this speech into English, which will be the primary source for this essay. The speech given by Wells was in protest to Hitler’s Enabling act; a law that would help provide Hitler and his followers with a legal path towards a dictatorship. The vote for the enabling act and the speech given by Wells, were held in the Reichstag on the same day, but as history has shown, Hitler’s Nazi Party prevailed, and the democratic makeup of the Weimer Republic was washed away. The significance of this speech is quite prevalent today, in retrospect to the grisly past of the Third Reich,
