How The Lowenstein Family Affected The Nazi Regime
The Lowenstein family is only one example of the thousands of Jewish family's affected during the Nazi Regime. But through their family's story
one is able to understand some of the conditions people were under during that time period. However, the family was no fully Jewish. Max
Lowenstein was Jewish but Marie Steinberg was from Estonia, as a result their son Henry was half Jewish but their daughter who was from not
born from Marie's marriage with Max was not Jewish. Nevertheless, the family still received tremendous persecution. His father was a doctor and
his mother an artist. But both were very artistic, as Henry Lowenstein mentions in the video. He remembers growing up in an apartment where there
were always performers in their home; the place was decorated with art, his parents always went to the theater, and his mother would take him to
different museums in Berlin. They were also a family who practiced both Christian and Jewish traditions. His sister, who wasn't even Jewish knew
more Hebrew than him and could recite the bible. They were a very happy and united family until the Nazi's grew in power and they were forced to

This provided an alternative to emigration, which had proven to be very expensive. They would be "eliminated by natural causes," death by a

they would be exterminated. Luckily, the Lowenstein family was relieved from this notice through the efforts of Marie and out of pure luck in their

The Nazis And The Nazi Regime
The Nazis, who came to power with the leader Adolf Hitler in Germany in January 1933, believed in a radical "genetic" restricting of society where
ethnic cleansing of Jews was the main priority. Nazi regime wanted to make German Aryan race "superior" and the Jews were considered "inferior"
within German racial community. The Holocaust was state–sponsored organized oppression and homicide of six million Jews by the Nazi regime.
During the era of the Holocaust, German authorities also targeted other groups, and the process involved, the sterilization of those thought to be social
misfits, the killing of the disabled, homosexuals and Roma, the enslaving of Slavs and the selective dispensing of welfare according to interpretations
of "genetic worth" (Finaldi, 96). After Nazis took over the government in Germany, their National Socialist government established concentration
camps for their political opponents. However, before the outbreak of war, Nazi officials started using these camps for incarceration of Jews, and other
victims of racial and ethnic hatred. Millions of innocent people were murdered just because of their ethnic or racial differences, however, thousands
were lucky enough to survive from Nazi tyranny.

The Nazi Regime Was Defined By Its Fascism Policies
The Nazi regime was defined by its fascism policies in Germany that had on huge implications on the country 's socio–political and economic settings.
The National sozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei (Nazi) evolved from the German Worker 's Party. Adolf Hitler was the man behind the
establishment of the Nazi party into the German political system as he rose to power in the late 1920s. He was the leader of the Nazi party. The party

Germany as a country was hard hit by the effects of the war with the years to follow seeing the country go through both political and economic
instability. Hitler grew up in this era when Germany was facing many sanctions imposed by the Allied Forces through the Versailles Treaty. After
serving in the First World War I, he resigned his military career to join the German Worker 's Party where he rose through the ranks to be the party
leader, and he changed the party 's name to the famously known National sozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei (Nazi). Hitler took this as the right
platform to get more power in Germany to oppose the influence of the Allied Forces in Germany. He underwent a lot of power struggles as he tried
to mobilize popular support for the Nazi party. It was until 1932 when the party gunned a total of 37% of the votes in the election which was largest
share of votes in the election. This meant Hitler was a leader of unimaginable power within the Nazi party and Germany and by 1933, he was the
chancellor of Germany. After the death of President Hindenburg in 1934, Hitler became 'Der Fuhrer ' and he assumed the presidential powers including
those of the supreme commander of the armed forces. This marked the onset fascism and destruction of democracy in Germany. From the mysterious

The Totalitarian Regime In Nazi Germany
The totalitarian regime in the Nazi State from 1933 to 1945 bestowed Hitler incredible status and power, most of which was manipulated into the
ubiquitous representations of the Nazi state who cemented fear and acquiescence among the German populace. However, despite the terror instilled
within Hitler's established regime, allegiance to the Furher dwindled as groups successfully resisted the ideology of Nazism. Thence, his monolithic
totalitarianism continued to idolize fear as a weapon which played a vital role in the Third Reich as resistance occurred from social democrats and

The Nazi Regime: A Literary Analysis
The world was at its breaking point, with Nazi Germany controlling much of Europe and Hitler with no plans of stopping. Many people in Nazi
controlled countries were looking for ways to rebel. One way to do just that was by owning and reading books. For that reason, literature played a big
role in the shaping of the world during that harsh time.
The Nazi Regime saw reading as a sign of resistance. Because of this they burned books to show their power. They tried to establish that the only
thing you should fill your mind with was their ideology. The books that were burned were said to be "un–German". One of the most famous book
burnings took place in Berlin, Germany on May 10, 1933. There were an estimated 25,000 books burned that day. Of the many authors whose books
were never able to be read again, noticeable ones include: Ernest Hemingway, Karl Marx, and Helen Keller. Although it did not take place during the

In Pre–Modern Europe, Jews would be the largest minority. Jews would follow their own law of Judaism (which had rules such as how to dress and
when to work) that would differ from the Christian way. Because of this difference, there was a little tension between the Christians and Jews, but they
did co–exist. However, Jews did sometimes get expelled from certain regions. Furthermore, Jews would not be treated as people who practiced a
different religion but as people of a separate biological race. Now as countries and borders became more and more apparent, nationalism came on the
rise. In order to be nationalistic and band together with others of the same nationality, one must have something or someone to band together against,
and unfortunately but predictably, Jews were the target of this newfound nationalism. This resentment of the Jews in Europe had been instilled in their
mindset going into the interwar period ("Racism, Anti–В‐Semitism, Colonialism").
For example, in Protocols of the Elders of Zion, written in 1902, someone who had anti–Semitic views forges a document and writes from the point of
view of a Jew about all the terrible ideas the Jews believe (363–367). Protocols was used as anti–Semitic propaganda, such describing Jews as being
bent on world domination and having the ability to control the masses through medicine, finance, politics, and the media. In other words, Jews were

Intolerance During The Nazi Regime
Intolerance
The definition of intolerance is "the unwillingness to accept views, beliefs, or behavior that differ from one's own". There have been many times in
history when people have been unwilling to accept things that are different than what they belief. There has been the Nazi regime, whites segregating
blacks, people who disagree with people who are homesexual, and Donald Trump.
One example of intolerance is during the Nazi regime. When Hitler came to power in 1933, he tried to imprison and kill all Jews and nobody for the
most part tried to stop him. Hitler didn't stop there though, he still thought that everyone who didn't have blonde hair and blue eyes were not good
enough, because they were not what he thought to be the perfect race. There was the holocaust. There were about 42, 500 facilities in Germany that
were used for slave labor, mass murder, and other human right abuses. It is to be predicted that about 200,000 Jews died during the Holocaust. Jews
were hunted down and were forced to go into hiding. If they were caught, they would be sent to concentration camps where many died. Six million

Why Was There So Little Opposition to the Nazi Regime?
It is very difficult to judge the levels of opposition to the Nazi regime because of the extreme measures that were in place to suppress it. This being the
case therefore, can we conclude that the fact that there was relatively little political resistance meant that the German population were too scared to
speak out, as they knew what the consequences would be? Or was it perhaps that the government had taken measures to ensure that the German
population did not feel the need to air any grievances that they had with the Nazi party, because they didn't have any?

Marriage loans were granted to women who gave up their jobs, and because of the high level of unemployment there was little reaction to men being
given preference to women should the situation arise. As the state wanted families to produce as many healthy Germans as possible, laws were
introduced that made divorce permissible if the relationship was not conducive to contributing to the new master race. However, this would not have
been possible had it not been for the methods taken to educate females about what was expected of them by the state, which was done through various
organisations. Medals were given to prestigious mothers, and other forms of incentives were used as well.
The policies towards women suffered because they tended to contradict other policies. For example, the Hitler Youth took away the children from the
family environment and to challenge any non Nazi opinions from their parents. This somewhat differs from the image of a healthy, happy Aryan
family that the state desired to be commonplace throughout the country. During the Second World War procreation outside marriage was seen as
acceptable, and the Lebensborn programme opened what were essentially state run brothels. The policies also failed to keep women in the home, as a

The Nazi Regime Used Propaganda Posters
The Nazi regime used propaganda posters to primarily expose the German people to a new way of thinking. In charge of distributing and
overseeing the creation of a majority of the propagandist posters was Dr. Paul Joseph Goebbels. Born in Rheydt, Germany he created and ran the
Third Reich Ministry of Public Enlightenment and Propaganda. There, his goal was to play upon the hopes, fears, and frustrations of the German
people. Then, he wished to harness those same emotions to spark a German movement and war. Goebbels believed that the written word, instead
of the spoke word, was responsible or countless great events in history. In his posters he hoped that: "Today every German soldier, worker, and
pleasant knows what we are fighting for. This is not a war for thorn and altar; it is a war for wheat and bread, for a full table three times a day, a
war of achievement of material means necessary for a solution of the social question." There was fire in his blood, and it would end up clearly
manifesting in his work on propaganda posters. Initially Nazi propagandists used niche marketing to connect their posters to all aspects of German life.
Under niche marketing, they concentrated their efforts on smaller, yet influential groups of people. Some examples included woman working in
homes, farmers, factory workers, and war veterans. If the government could get the support of those distinct groups, then they knew they would have a

terror has been argued by historians ever since. The view given by Gellately in Source 4 strongly agrees with that in the question, whereas Evans, in

Because of this, the Nazi government arranged the production of the People's Receiver (a cheaper version of the radio) and by 1939 70% of German
homes had a radio which was the highest national figure in the world. It was benefits like these that gave the German people a genuine reason to
support the regime. This was added to by the reduction in unemployment throughout the period which made many people think that the dictatorship
would, in the long term have a positive impact on the country and the position of Germany on an international scale. A further argument within this
controversy is that the regime relied on the selective nature of terror in the regime between 1933–1939. Johnson in Source 6 says that "Nazi terror lies
in its selective nature". Though it is undoubtedly true that Nazi terror had a selective nature, Johnson goes on to say that the regime "dismissed
expressions of non–conformity and mild disobedience on the part of other citizens". He is therefore implying that the Nazis viewed active opposition
as a threat but didn't see non–conformity as an act of opposition. However, this can be argued as members of the Swing Youth were punished and

explosion of the people. Indescribable!" (Fritzsche, 1998) Even though later in history we see Hitler's ultimate motive to be his own rise in
political hierarchy, his speech introduced himself to the German public as a populist and a "revolutionary political genius." (Grunfield, 1974)

The Holocaust And The Nazi Regime During World War 2
The Holocaust refers to the systematic genocide of over a million Jews perpetrated by the Nazi Regime during World War 2. Since the day it ended,
historians over the world have attempted to uncover the true reasons behind the Holocaust, leading to the prominent debate over the exact date the
Holocaust initially began. However due to a lack of considerable evidence, many opposing interpretations of the evidence has surfaced with the creation
of several schools of thought: the Intentionalist, Functionalist and Opportunistic view. The Intentionalist view focuses complete blame on Hitler as the
evil totalitarian leader of the Third Reich. From their perspective, the Holocaust is dated earlier, for it was always Hitler's intention to implement the
premediated genocide of the Jewish population. In contrast, the Functionalist view argues that Hitler wasn't the driving force behind the Holocaust, but
rather a weak dictator who was a willing slave to circumstance. They propose that the Holocaust was dated later and advocate instead that an
accumulation of structural factors led to the Holocaust. Both these perspectives enhance our insight regarding the date of the Holocaust, they are
however hindered by their reliance on the interpretation of certain pieces of evidence and as such are easily contradicted. As such the Opportunistic
view offers the most comprehensive explanation, for it synthesises both these contributions while addressing their flaws to provide the better outcome.

In 1920, Hitler modified a common ancient symbol to form the swastika, or twisted cross, as a symbol for his party. He then changed the name of the
party to the National Socialist German Worker's Party, or, in the shortened German form, the NAZI party (Keegan 65).
By 1921, the Nazi party had over 3000 members, mostly drawing in large numbers of ultra–conservatives from Munich. In late 1921, Hitler traveled to
Berlin to try and find more members for his party, but quickly returned, for the members of his party had signed a coup, which attempted to try and
overthrow Hitler. Offended, Hitler resigned his position, only to be asked to join again two weeks later. He knew the party was nothing without him

wiped out. As a result, riots broke out. These riots incited extremist political groups into action, quickly bringing Germany to the brink of chaos.
In 1923, the Nazi's had a party population of 55,000 members, far more than any extremist group vying for power. Hitler, knowing this, devised a plan,

It wasn't only through youth groups that the youth were indoctrinated to the Nazi regime. The education system was also completely geared to
spreading the Nazi party propaganda. For example the curriculum was designed around the Nazi ideology. Geography taught the boys map skills and
other skills that would be critical during a war. History taught the Nazi version of History, which was a contrived version of events, which blamed the
Jews for all of Germany's problems in the past. Even subjects such as Maths were used by the Nazis to further their cause with lesson concentrating on
the angles of ballistics and other such material.
The Nazi views towards women were also presented in the educational system with a girls education being divided into a number of different lessons
each one of which encouraged a life at home. Examples of these lessons include Hauswirtschaft. This involved domestic science, cooking, house and

Hitler 's Influence On The Nazi Regime
To assess the popularity of the Nazis one must first establish the meaning of popularity and in what ways it can be assessed. Popularity in this
instance is support and conformity to the Nazi regime. This essay will span from Hitler and the party's early days in the Burgerbraukeller in
Munich up to the death of the regime in 1945. The evidence used will span from Hitler's own words in 'Mein Kampf' to the masses of propaganda
left behind upon the regimes collapse. The biggest historiographical debate in my opinion on this subject is 'resistenz' argued by Martin Broszat and
'Loyal reluctance' argued mainly by Robert Gellately and Ian Kershaw. During this essay both sides will be evaluated with the idea of popularity at
the forefront and how each argument adds or detracts from my argument that the Nazis were mainly a popular regime. Loyal reluctance can be
described in this context as loyalty to the regime but reluctance to change in order to fit the image of the regime. For example a women wearing
make–up does not necessarily mean she is showing resistance or 'resistenz' but is simply unwilling to change although she supports the regime in full.
Up until 1936 conformity had a veneer of legality with the use of the Gestapo and the secret police. Evans used the term 'the sunny side of the regime'
(Kershaw, p. 13) to term 1933 to 1936. This appears to be an accurate estimate of the support for the Nazis up until this point as the organisations put

The National Socialist Party And The Downfall Of The...
From the beginning of the National Socialist Party's rise to power to the downfall of the conquering Nazi regime, the ideology of a racially and
biologically superior Germany was a large motivating force for the actions taken by the regime's leaders and its people. National Socialist supporters
saw the fictitious Aryan race as the pure, master race of Germany, while minority races and religions, namely Jews, as well as any subculture that did
not follow Nazi ideology or social norms, were deemed as inferior sub–humans. Despite the connection of race superiority between Aryan men and
women, however, women, somewhat similarly to racial minorities, were perceived as submissive, lesser humans to the Nazi political leaders when
compared to the supposedly influential and flawless Aryan men. Men, according to Nazi ideology, are who "make history" and will "devote [their]
powers" towards the victory of Germany and the domination of the Aryan race over Europe. Yet, for the Aryan race to successfully rule Europe, a new
and large generation of pure Aryan Germans must come into fruition, thus the need for Aryan women's compliance in bearing many children was
essential.
Great importance was placed on the preservation of traditional gender roles, specifically the role as a mother, and the separation and segregation of the
worlds of men and women. Women were continuously told that they are biologically different from men to rationalize why their worlds, careers, and

To what extent were the Nazis more evil (1933 – 1945) than other genocidal regimes? A.Plan of Investigation The investigation assesses the Nazi
regime from 1933 – 1945 in regards to the totality of their actions. In order to evaluate the Nazi regime on whether or not they were more evil than
other genocidal regimes, the investigation evaluates how the Nazis controlled their country. The investigation will start in the early years of the
Nazi regime in how they set up their totalitarian government and how they expanded their control. Then the Holocaust will be looked at for how
the Nazis treated those they were exterminating. Accounts from soldiers and Jewish people who lived through the Nazi control will be mostly
used to evaluate if the Nazis were more evil than other genocidal regimes. Two of the sources used in this essay, "The Liberation of Dachau" by
Chuck Ferree, and "Fate did not let me go" a letter by Valli Ollendorff are then evaluated for their origins, purposes, values and limitations.
B.Summary of Evidence The whole program to rebuild Germany was based on the idea that Germany had been betrayed and that the only way for
Germany to avenge itself upon its enemies and put an end to the conflict that had begun in 1914 was through military action. (Nelson) Through the bad

The Nazi Regime
The rise of the Nazi regime in Germany in the early part of the 20th century was an impressive, and nearly unforeseen incident that had long–lasting
implications on the rest of the Western world. While the Nazi party was extreme in their ideologies, the circumstances in which they came to power
were dire; Germany had been crippled by a massive depression and was being forced to pay reparations through the "Young Plan" which required
Germany to pay the Allied forces "a series of annual payments extending until 1988"(Bullock, 160). The German people were left without any
leadership in a time of disparity, but naturally, a strong leader filled this vacuum. Even though the actions of the Nazi party were extreme and

At the time that Hitler was appointed Chancellor, Alfred Hugenburg said "'I've just committed the greatest stupidity of my life; I have allied myself
with the greatest demagogue in world history'" (Briggs & Clavin, 254). Even the politician who appointed Hitler was unaware of how radical his
ideology was, and how influential he would be as a leader to the German people. After the Nazi party gained control of the government, there was no
way to make them give up this power. The people were at the mercy of the fascist government, and Hitler had no intention of returning to democracy.
Hitler believed that "'[Germany's] constitution only marks out the arena of battle, not the goal... once we possess the constitutional power, we will
mould the state into the shape we hold suitable'" (Briggs & Clavin, 255). If anyone should shoulder the blame for the rise of this extremist party, it
should be the failed League of Nations; who had put Germany at their mercy by strangling their economy, and Neville Chamberlin who saw the
increasing strength of the German nation under Adolf Hitler, but chose to ignore that Germany was increasing their military strength. One of the

An important topic is being researched, and it concerns the Final Solution of the Nazis concerning the Jews. On January 20th 1942, 15 leading
officials of the Nazi state met at a villa in Wannsee, a suburb of Berlin, to discuss the "Final solution of the Jewish Question" ("The Final Solution,"
2015). They used the term "Final Solution" to refer to their plan to annihilate the Jewish people. It is not known when the leaders of Nazi Germany
definitively decided to implement their plan to eradicate the Jews" ("United States Holocaust Memorial Museum," 2015). Although, the genocide, or
mass destruction, of the Jews was the culmination of a decade of increasingly severe discriminatory measures ("United States Holocaust Memorial

Final Solution, and its effects on Jewish population during the Nazi regime.
Firstly, when Adolf Hitler came into power in Germany on May 8th 1945, one of his main goals was to purify the German race. He believed that all
races were inferior to the German race. As a result, the Jewish people of Europe suffered severe persecution which eventually led to them being

Hitler 's Propaganda For The Nazi Regime
How significant was propaganda for the Nazi regime in 1933–1945?
The definition of propaganda is 'information, especially of a biased or misleading nature, used to promote or publicize a particular political cause or
point of view'. The Nazis used propaganda as a method to spread their views and to encourage the Germans to support Hitler. Some of the main
themes of propaganda was to demonise groups of people (races, religions e.c.t); to portray Hitler as a strong and powerful leader; to emphasise the
values of Nazi Germany and to promote the idea of an Aryan Germany having superiority above all other countries. The person in charge of
propaganda was Josef Goebbels, who Hitler placed in charge of the Ministry of Public Enlightenment and Propaganda. This department used many
methods to 'enlighten' the public for example different art forms including music and cinema, radio, the press, literature, rallies, posters and sports.
The Nazis used various different forms of art to subtly put across their messages to the people and Germany. For example film and theatre which
Goebbels thought was essential for 'influencing the mass'. To do this he made film much more accessible for people so that more people could be
influenced. They did this because they saw the growing interest in film industry, with films growing in both production and audience. As well as this
movies were all regulated by Goebbels which meant that several foreign films were banned from being watched in Germany.

The Killings And Racial Repressions Of Adolf Hitler And...
The mass killings and racial repression brought on by the Nazi regime is abhorrent. The Nazi regime singled out the Jewish community to reconcile the
belief that Germany had been betrayed in World War I. Once the Jewish community had been made the victim, the system of overlapping agencies
pushed institutions to the extreme as they competed for Hitler's attention. The effect of competing to earn consideration created systemic brutality
towards the Jewish people in Germany. From the creation of concentration camps and into the concentration camps created a "gray zone" within where
prisoners competed for special treatment by displaying their harshness towards their own compatriots. The Nazi system of racial repression and mass
murder of the Jewish population in Germany originated in Adolf Hitler's personal shortcomings as a failed artist and as a scapegoat for Germany's
defeat in World War. The system was operated by sycophants acting obsequiously to Hitler in hopes of raising their standing with Hitler to further their
career. The origins of Hitler's anti–Semitism are widely debated by historians. Common theories include: a self–loathing for Hitler's own partial Jewish
identity, reaction from hysterical trauma suffered from mustard gas in World War I, sexual fantasies, and a persecution complex. According to Ian
Kershaw these theories offer "...differing degrees of plausibility but ultimately amount to no more than guesswork." Kershaw argues that the only thing
that can be presumed about the foundations of Hitler's hatred is his low self–esteem, his frustrations of being a drop–out, failed artist, and being an
outsider of society. On top of this, Hitler was reading pan–German anti–Semitic newspapers and admired deeply the Austrian anti–Semite and
pan–German Leader Georg von Schonerer and anti–Semitic demagogue Karl Lueger, mayor of Vienna. All of this coupled with Germany's defeat in
World War I led Hitler to find a justification for the world, as he saw it, falling apart. So, he turned to demonizing the Jewish community while working
for the educational unit in the German army. In this unit, Hitler found his talent for demagoguery. Hitler made a concerted effort at accusing Jewish

Educational curriculum was politicized because of the influence it had on what they taught. Education in Germany was centered around Hitler's

The Nazi Regime
In this essay I will be analyzing the statement; The most important reason why there was little opposition towards the Nazi regime was because of its
use of propaganda. In order to do this I will explain how the Nazis actions and the events leading up to the war prevented opposition.
During the pre ww2 era and particularly in the 1930s Hitler focused a lot of his attention on the propaganda surrounding himself and the policies of
his Nazi party. A massive propaganda campaign was launched which aimed to convince the German people that all the Nazis did was right and good.
The man behind this campaign was Josef Goebbles, a vain, ambitious, anti– Semitic womanizer. Geobbles ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
Of course, Hitler seized on this event and claimed that a bolshevist revolution was underway in Germany and that communist were attempting to seize
power.
The church was also involved in opposing Nazi regimes. An organization called the confessing church was formed. It spoke out against Nazism, how it
infiltrated the church and the Nazi anti Semitic policies. Members of the Confessing Church also helped approximately 2000 Jews escape to freedom.
Probably one of the most significant and blatant acts of opposition towards Nazism occurred during the latter stages of the war in July 1944 when a
bomb plot executed by members of the German army took place. The intent was to kill Hitler and hopefully end his regime, however the plan failed
and Hitler survived despite badly injuring his right arm. The plan was nicknamed the Stauffenberg bomb plot.
Although the opposition instances mentioned caused the Nazis some concern, Goebbles and his Nazi propaganda machine managed to overcome
them. They did this by taking control of the medial and cultural aspects of Germany to win over the German people. They also manipulated events
(e.g. the Reichstag fire) using propaganda to abolish any opponents who were seen as a threat towards the Nazi power struggle. Goebbles fought for
control of newspaper companies and radio stations and hundreds of pro–Nazi films were made. Germany

world war. People during this era were looking for someone or something to grab hold of, and Hitler appeared to the German people as such a
trustworthy and upfront politician, that he became their "Savior." Thus this horrific man wormed his way into the hearts and minds of an entire

"fellow German folk", this boosted national pride for the losers of World War I. The German people never feared Hitler they loved him like a brother

harshly by the Nazi regime; 12 of the Edelweiss Pirates were hanged publicly whilst leading members of the White Rose Movement were executed.
Although the Nazis dealt swiftly and decisively with the opposition of youth groups, the fact that these young people were rejecting the Nazi ideology

The Holocaust And The Nazi Regime During World War II Essay
Introduction
The Second World War is seen by the modern world to be the most famous war that shaped the communities of the world today, but for the Jewish
community in Europe at the time this was the war to fight for their own existence. The Holocaust was the systematic extinction of six million Jews
by the Nazi regime during World War 2. Of the millions of Jewish people that lost their lives there were many that did resist and did escape the
Nazism and Nazi racial policy that was conducted on the Jewish lives throughout the war. There were different ways the Jews did resist through
different dimensions of wellbeing, through uprising in the ghettos and camps in a stretch to revolting against their German captivators whilst secretly
keeping their spiritual and religious beliefs as something that the Nazis could never physically take from them. The Jews showed resistance to German
control also by escaping the camps, and creating Armies and Partisan Groups to fight back. In the findings I was able to establish an understanding of
the different ways during the war the Jews managed to create upheaval and resist German authority and the fact that a percentage were able to resist.

were Jews. What is the percentage of aliens in Germany?"
Hitler also had special school for students in which leading Nazis felt excelled others. These were called "order castles" or "Adolf Hitler schools". These

the proles and paid them no mind with the idea that the proletariats were inferior. Additionally, members of the inner and outer parties shared the same
characteristics as those in power of the Nazi regime: "tall muscular youths and deep–bosomed maidens, blond–haired, vital, sunburnt, carefree" (60). In
addition to the similarities in structure, Oceania also destroyed all books created before Big Brother gained power. Therefore, the structure of
Oceania is a direct parallel to Nazi Germany and conveys Orwell's message that an initial breach of individual liberties will continue until all
originality is destroyed. However, Oceania had slight variations from its predecessor. One example of this is the absence of labor camps orchestrated to

How The Nazi Regime Spread Anti-Semitism

  • 1. How The Lowenstein Family Affected The Nazi Regime The Lowenstein family is only one example of the thousands of Jewish family's affected during the Nazi Regime. But through their family's story one is able to understand some of the conditions people were under during that time period. However, the family was no fully Jewish. Max Lowenstein was Jewish but Marie Steinberg was from Estonia, as a result their son Henry was half Jewish but their daughter who was from not born from Marie's marriage with Max was not Jewish. Nevertheless, the family still received tremendous persecution. His father was a doctor and his mother an artist. But both were very artistic, as Henry Lowenstein mentions in the video. He remembers growing up in an apartment where there were always performers in their home; the place was decorated with art, his parents always went to the theater, and his mother would take him to different museums in Berlin. They were also a family who practiced both Christian and Jewish traditions. His sister, who wasn't even Jewish knew more Hebrew than him and could recite the bible. They were a very happy and united family until the Nazi's grew in power and they were forced to break... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... This provided an alternative to emigration, which had proven to be very expensive. They would be "eliminated by natural causes," death by a combination of hard labor and starvation (The History Place). This was the intended misfortune for the Lowenstein family. The Notice of Eviction discussed earlier demonstrates this. The notice was an intended cover in order to gather up all Jews and take them to the concentration camps where they would be exterminated. Luckily, the Lowenstein family was relieved from this notice through the efforts of Marie and out of pure luck in their ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 2. The Nazis And The Nazi Regime The Nazis, who came to power with the leader Adolf Hitler in Germany in January 1933, believed in a radical "genetic" restricting of society where ethnic cleansing of Jews was the main priority. Nazi regime wanted to make German Aryan race "superior" and the Jews were considered "inferior" within German racial community. The Holocaust was state–sponsored organized oppression and homicide of six million Jews by the Nazi regime. During the era of the Holocaust, German authorities also targeted other groups, and the process involved, the sterilization of those thought to be social misfits, the killing of the disabled, homosexuals and Roma, the enslaving of Slavs and the selective dispensing of welfare according to interpretations of "genetic worth" (Finaldi, 96). After Nazis took over the government in Germany, their National Socialist government established concentration camps for their political opponents. However, before the outbreak of war, Nazi officials started using these camps for incarceration of Jews, and other victims of racial and ethnic hatred. Millions of innocent people were murdered just because of their ethnic or racial differences, however, thousands were lucky enough to survive from Nazi tyranny. Schindler's List by Steven Spielberg is one of the greatest films that has ever been filmed. It emphasizes the characteristics of Nazi regime, and not only portrays the Holocaust, but it also awakens human emotions and gives hope to the humanity. The entire film ...

  • 3. The Nazi Regime Was Defined By Its Fascism Policies The Nazi regime was defined by its fascism policies in Germany that had on huge implications on the country 's socio–political and economic settings. The National sozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei (Nazi) evolved from the German Worker 's Party. Adolf Hitler was the man behind the establishment of the Nazi party into the German political system as he rose to power in the late 1920s. He was the leader of the Nazi party. The party came to being from the Weimar Republic, which came about after Germany was defeated in the First World War. The defeat of Germany in World War I paved the way for the formation of a democratic nation of Germany with a democratic constitution and federal structure. The Versailles Treaty seemed to oppress Germany ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Germany as a country was hard hit by the effects of the war with the years to follow seeing the country go through both political and economic instability. Hitler grew up in this era when Germany was facing many sanctions imposed by the Allied Forces through the Versailles Treaty. After serving in the First World War I, he resigned his military career to join the German Worker 's Party where he rose through the ranks to be the party leader, and he changed the party 's name to the famously known National sozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei (Nazi). Hitler took this as the right platform to get more power in Germany to oppose the influence of the Allied Forces in Germany. He underwent a lot of power struggles as he tried to mobilize popular support for the Nazi party. It was until 1932 when the party gunned a total of 37% of the votes in the election which was largest share of votes in the election. This meant Hitler was a leader of unimaginable power within the Nazi party and Germany and by 1933, he was the chancellor of Germany. After the death of President Hindenburg in 1934, Hitler became 'Der Fuhrer ' and he assumed the presidential powers including those of the supreme commander of the armed forces. This marked the onset fascism and destruction of democracy in Germany. From the mysterious fire in the German Parliament which gave Hitler an excuse to assume all the powers in Germany.

  • 4. The Totalitarian Regime In Nazi Germany The totalitarian regime in the Nazi State from 1933 to 1945 bestowed Hitler incredible status and power, most of which was manipulated into the ubiquitous representations of the Nazi state who cemented fear and acquiescence among the German populace. However, despite the terror instilled within Hitler's established regime, allegiance to the Furher dwindled as groups successfully resisted the ideology of Nazism. Thence, his monolithic totalitarianism continued to idolize fear as a weapon which played a vital role in the Third Reich as resistance occurred from social democrats and communists, the youth, Christian churches and conservative military groups. Authoritarianism was the driving force behind the terror that encompassed the German nation ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Thus, during the Nazi era, the Edelweiss Pirates had "no distinctive political ideology but great antipathy towards," ( ) Hitler's totalitarian government. Notwithstanding Hitler's movement, the youth sought to release their free–spirited and natural desire for rebellion against totalitarian regimes – they "[hated] all discipline and thereby place themselves in opposition to the community," (J. Noakes, Nazism 1919–1945, Volume 4, The German Home Front in World War II, Exeter, 1998, pp. 450 –52). Congregating on the street, their continuous behavior made it difficult for any authoritarian or forceful (such as the Gestapo or SS) figures to decide if their actions were merely less advanced forms of juvenile delinquency. It was apparent that the youth did adverse the lack of freedom and opposed Hitler's "pseudo–science of eugenics that claimed society could be improved [by] sterilization or euthanasia," (J. Llewellyn et al, Nazi Ideology, Alpha History). Despite the terrors from indoctrination and the Police State, the youth still continued to resist the ideology of Nazism. Henceforth, towards the end of Hitler's regime the adolescence participated in battles with members of the Hitler Youth whilst parading in subways with anti–Nazi protests ...

  • 5. The Nazi Regime: A Literary Analysis The world was at its breaking point, with Nazi Germany controlling much of Europe and Hitler with no plans of stopping. Many people in Nazi controlled countries were looking for ways to rebel. One way to do just that was by owning and reading books. For that reason, literature played a big role in the shaping of the world during that harsh time. The Nazi Regime saw reading as a sign of resistance. Because of this they burned books to show their power. They tried to establish that the only thing you should fill your mind with was their ideology. The books that were burned were said to be "un–German". One of the most famous book burnings took place in Berlin, Germany on May 10, 1933. There were an estimated 25,000 books burned that day. Of the many authors whose books were never able to be read again, noticeable ones include: Ernest Hemingway, Karl Marx, and Helen Keller. Although it did not take place during the war it showed the oppression in which the German people were going through. And the extent at what the Nazi Regime would do to keep power....

In his book, Mein Kampf, Hitler tells how he came to dislike Judaism and the future plans he had for Germany. Another author who made an impact was Anne Frank. Anne wrote in her diary, given to her shortly before she went into hiding, and described her life hiding in a "secret annex" in Amsterdam. In her diary she wrote about the day to day life of living in the annex and stories to pass the time.

  • 6. How Anti Semitism Is Put Forward As The Nazi Regime Gains... Andy Huang Juan Pablo Mercado History 5 Section 1I 3 February 2015 How Anti–Semitism Is Put Forward as the Nazi Regime Gains Power When we look back onto the origins of the Holocaust, we immediately have ideas of what the Nazis might have done, though it might not be exactly correct. We probably think that it was explicitly Nazi hating and targeting Jewish people from the start kind of thing, but there were many layers and events that happened before that point. The Nationalist Socialist German Workers' Party (NSDAP for short, or theNazi Party), led by Adolf Hitler, was not even an important entity or political force in Germany until about ten to fifteen years before the war, so how did they become so popular and powerful in ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... In Pre–Modern Europe, Jews would be the largest minority. Jews would follow their own law of Judaism (which had rules such as how to dress and when to work) that would differ from the Christian way. Because of this difference, there was a little tension between the Christians and Jews, but they did co–exist. However, Jews did sometimes get expelled from certain regions. Furthermore, Jews would not be treated as people who practiced a different religion but as people of a separate biological race. Now as countries and borders became more and more apparent, nationalism came on the rise. In order to be nationalistic and band together with others of the same nationality, one must have something or someone to band together against, and unfortunately but predictably, Jews were the target of this newfound nationalism. This resentment of the Jews in Europe had been instilled in their mindset going into the interwar period ("Racism, Anti–В‐Semitism, Colonialism"). For example, in Protocols of the Elders of Zion, written in 1902, someone who had anti–Semitic views forges a document and writes from the point of view of a Jew about all the terrible ideas the Jews believe (363–367). Protocols was used as anti–Semitic propaganda, such describing Jews as being bent on world domination and having the ability to control the masses through medicine, finance, politics, and the media. In other words, Jews were seen as vile and evil in the eyes of ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 7. How Effective Was Opposition To The Nazi Regime Between... How effective was opposition to the Nazi regime between 1933 and 1945? Hitler's dictatorship of Germany reformed it into a totalisation state, which meant that the Nazi party were the only party that held political importance and therefore other opposing parties were banned. Opposition consisted of Germany's general public, Churches and religious followings, such as Christian and Protestant, and anti–Nazi groups. The control the Nazi party had in Germany made it difficult for any opposition to be able to have an effect on the Nazi regime safely. That was because anybody who tried to speak out against the regime and its policies or Hitler was arrested and sent to concentration camps to be used as slaves of labour or executed, which is stated ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Hitler was able to influence the media in Germany so assigned Nazi members to broadcast and report to the public. But they would then only feed stories and news to the people about matters that showed the Nazi regime in a positive and biased way to give the false pretence to the German people the regime is effective and the best thing for the country to improve. Opposition however couldn't compete with the broad scale that the Nazis were able to report on, so they lacked having the proper resources to reach the public audience and to educate them on different political matters that would allow them to be able to form and develop their own opinions. People also wouldn't take any physical items that explained their views and opinions because if they were caught with anything that opposes the Nazi party or regime they could be arrested and taken to a concentration camp. That meant that they had to rely on reaching people verbally and being able to express themselves in a way that's effective for people to be interested by and has an impact that it'll stay in their ...

  • 8. The Nazi Regime Of Adolf Hitler At Auschwitz Birkenau... 1.1 million. That is the number of people exterminated by the Nazi regime of Adolph Hitler at Auschwitz–Birkenau death camp between 1940–45. (Auschwitz–Birkenau museum online) The raw number itself absolutely staggering, too large for any human being to wrap their minds around. It is a large enough number to inspire skepticism, disbelief, and outrage. To this day, decades after the fact, there are still those who deny that any of it ever happened because the numbers are just too big. It is better to think of this tragedy in more personal terms: as in 1.1 million families physically ripped apart, 1.1 million dreams snuffed out, and untold numbers of survivors left scared forever. Human faces need to be attached to the raw numbers, or else the numbers become a point of data, something which can be spun to serve up moral or political advantage in today 's society. We must remember what happened in Auschwitz–Birkenau, and the other Nazi concentration camps. All of humanity must remember or we are surely doomed to one–day repeat this dark chapter in our history. The history of the Jewish people is littered with tales of religious based violence, state organized pogroms, and forced evictions. American jewish parents have taken the old rhyme: "Columbus sailed the Ocean Blue in 1492", and added the words "and the Jews were kicked out too!" in order to memorialize the Jews exile from Spain during the Catholic Church 's Inquisition. Jews were accused of all manner of crimes, both ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 9. Intolerance During The Nazi Regime Intolerance The definition of intolerance is "the unwillingness to accept views, beliefs, or behavior that differ from one's own". There have been many times in history when people have been unwilling to accept things that are different than what they belief. There has been the Nazi regime, whites segregating blacks, people who disagree with people who are homesexual, and Donald Trump. One example of intolerance is during the Nazi regime. When Hitler came to power in 1933, he tried to imprison and kill all Jews and nobody for the most part tried to stop him. Hitler didn't stop there though, he still thought that everyone who didn't have blonde hair and blue eyes were not good enough, because they were not what he thought to be the perfect race. There was the holocaust. There were about 42, 500 facilities in Germany that were used for slave labor, mass murder, and other human right abuses. It is to be predicted that about 200,000 Jews died during the Holocaust. Jews were hunted down and were forced to go into hiding. If they were caught, they would be sent to concentration camps where many died. Six million Jews died, including 1.5 million children during the Nazi regime. Five million ...

Some people refuse to marry two of the same sex because it goes outside of their beliefs. There are some people dislike people who are gay and lesbians, so much that they feel like they need to kill them.

  • 10. Why Was There so Little Opposition to the Nazi Regime? Why Was There So Little Opposition to the Nazi Regime? It is very difficult to judge the levels of opposition to the Nazi regime because of the extreme measures that were in place to suppress it. This being the case therefore, can we conclude that the fact that there was relatively little political resistance meant that the German population were too scared to speak out, as they knew what the consequences would be? Or was it perhaps that the government had taken measures to ensure that the German population did not feel the need to air any grievances that they had with the Nazi party, because they didn't have any? Adolf Hitler, when appointed Chancellor in 1933, wanted to use his newly acquired power base to create a new Volksgemeinschaft... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Marriage loans were granted to women who gave up their jobs, and because of the high level of unemployment there was little reaction to men being given preference to women should the situation arise. As the state wanted families to produce as many healthy Germans as possible, laws were introduced that made divorce permissible if the relationship was not conducive to contributing to the new master race. However, this would not have been possible had it not been for the methods taken to educate females about what was expected of them by the state, which was done through various organisations. Medals were given to prestigious mothers, and other forms of incentives were used as well. The policies towards women suffered because they tended to contradict other policies. For example, the Hitler Youth took away the children from the family environment and to challenge any non Nazi opinions from their parents. This somewhat differs from the image of a healthy, happy Aryan family that the state desired to be commonplace throughout the country. During the Second World War procreation outside marriage was seen as acceptable, and the Lebensborn programme opened what were essentially state run brothels. The policies also failed to keep women in the home, as a result of the economic recovery. As the need for workers grew, a conflict between ideology and economic ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 11. The Nazi Regime Used Propaganda Posters The Nazi regime used propaganda posters to primarily expose the German people to a new way of thinking. In charge of distributing and overseeing the creation of a majority of the propagandist posters was Dr. Paul Joseph Goebbels. Born in Rheydt, Germany he created and ran the Third Reich Ministry of Public Enlightenment and Propaganda. There, his goal was to play upon the hopes, fears, and frustrations of the German people. Then, he wished to harness those same emotions to spark a German movement and war. Goebbels believed that the written word, instead of the spoke word, was responsible or countless great events in history. In his posters he hoped that: "Today every German soldier, worker, and pleasant knows what we are fighting for. This is not a war for thorn and altar; it is a war for wheat and bread, for a full table three times a day, a war of achievement of material means necessary for a solution of the social question." There was fire in his blood, and it would end up clearly manifesting in his work on propaganda posters. Initially Nazi propagandists used niche marketing to connect their posters to all aspects of German life. Under niche marketing, they concentrated their efforts on smaller, yet influential groups of people. Some examples included woman working in homes, farmers, factory workers, and war veterans. If the government could get the support of those distinct groups, then they knew they would have a strong support base to rely and rally on for ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 12. Revolutionary Threshold A revolutionary threshold is the notion of when an individual is willing to participate (if at all) within a protest based on the amount of people already involved. An individual's revolutionary threshold may decrease or increase based on a variety of reasons. Clark, Golder, and Golder explained, "As you might expect, people's thresholds are likely to depend on many different factors, such as whether they have benefitted or suffered under the regime, whether they have much to lose from participating in protests, and whether they believe that the regime is fragile or stable" (Clark, Golder, & Golder, 2012, p. 284).

The opposition had implemented a new strategy in order to beat Milosavljevic, despite the curve ball that Milosavljevic had thrown by calling for the election to be held early. Mladjan Dinkic explained, "The advantage of the opposition in this campaign was that the campaign was dispersed.

  • 13. The Nazi Regime Depended More on Broad Popularity Than... 'The Nazi regime depended more on broad popularity than terror in the years 1933–39.' Throughout the years 1933–1939, the Nazis consolidated and strengthened their power over the German people in a number of ways. The debate as to whether they depended on their broad popularity or on terror has been argued by historians ever since. The view given by Gellately in Source 4 strongly agrees with that in the question, whereas Evans, in Source 5 combines the terror and popularity aspects of the regime and says that the German people perceived terror as being popular. Johnson presents the view that the selective nature of Nazi terror created a sense of security for German citizens who should have nothing to worry about. However, on any level it...

Because of this, the Nazi government arranged the production of the People's Receiver (a cheaper version of the radio) and by 1939 70% of German homes had a radio which was the highest national figure in the world. It was benefits like these that gave the German people a genuine reason to support the regime. This was added to by the reduction in unemployment throughout the period which made many people think that the dictatorship would, in the long term have a positive impact on the country and the position of Germany on an international scale. A further argument within this controversy is that the regime relied on the selective nature of terror in the regime between 1933–1939. Johnson in Source 6 says that "Nazi terror lies in its selective nature". Though it is undoubtedly true that Nazi terror had a selective nature, Johnson goes on to say that the regime "dismissed expressions of non–conformity and mild disobedience on the part of other citizens". He is therefore implying that the Nazis viewed active opposition as a threat but didn't see non–conformity as an act of opposition. However, this can be argued as members of the Swing Youth were punished and Himmler and Heinrich actually wanted to put the ringleaders into concentration camps.

The use of oratory skills, in conjunction with his knowledge and use of propaganda and his suppression of details of the Holocaust, created a vibe of "electric excitement" for Germany.

  • 15. The Holocaust And The Nazi Regime During World War 2 The Holocaust refers to the systematic genocide of over a million Jews perpetrated by the Nazi Regime during World War 2. Since the day it ended, historians over the world have attempted to uncover the true reasons behind the Holocaust, leading to the prominent debate over the exact date the Holocaust initially began. However due to a lack of considerable evidence, many opposing interpretations of the evidence has surfaced with the creation of several schools of thought: the Intentionalist, Functionalist and Opportunistic view. The Intentionalist view focuses complete blame on Hitler as the evil totalitarian leader of the Third Reich. From their perspective, the Holocaust is dated earlier, for it was always Hitler's intention to implement the premediated genocide of the Jewish population. In contrast, the Functionalist view argues that Hitler wasn't the driving force behind the Holocaust, but rather a weak dictator who was a willing slave to circumstance. They propose that the Holocaust was dated later and advocate instead that an accumulation of structural factors led to the Holocaust. Both these perspectives enhance our insight regarding the date of the Holocaust, they are however hindered by their reliance on the interpretation of certain pieces of evidence and as such are easily contradicted. As such the Opportunistic view offers the most comprehensive explanation, for it synthesises both these contributions while addressing their flaws to provide the better outcome. ...

From guarding the stricken land of Poland against Soviet advancement, to making sure the western shores of the Atlantic Ocean in France were closely guarded, Hitler had much to worry about. Unfortunately, it was during Hitler's reign when a most horrible atrocity took place. Adolph Hitler was born on April 20th, 1889 in a small hamlet named Braunau Am Inn, just across the border from German Bavaria. Hitler's childhood was often riddled with abuse and physical beatings.

In 1920, Hitler modified a common ancient symbol to form the swastika, or twisted cross, as a symbol for his party. He then changed the name of the party to the National Socialist German Worker's Party, or, in the shortened German form, the NAZI party (Keegan 65). By 1921, the Nazi party had over 3000 members, mostly drawing in large numbers of ultra–conservatives from Munich. In late 1921, Hitler traveled to Berlin to try and find more members for his party, but quickly returned, for the members of his party had signed a coup, which attempted to try and overthrow Hitler. Offended, Hitler resigned his position, only to be asked to join again two weeks later. He knew the party was nothing without him (Gilber 54). Between 1921 and 1923, Germany had collapsed into financial ruin. Germany was presented with a 33 billion dollar bill, as reparations as a result of World War I. Inflation hit the roof, and the economy was finished. It took 4 billion marks to buy a loaf of bread. Life savings were completely wiped out. As a result, riots broke out. These riots incited extremist political groups into action, quickly bringing Germany to the brink of chaos. In 1923, the Nazi's had a party population of 55,000 members, far more than any extremist group vying for power.

  • 20. Hitler 's Influence On The Nazi Regime To assess the popularity of the Nazis one must first establish the meaning of popularity and in what ways it can be assessed. Popularity in this instance is support and conformity to the Nazi regime. This essay will span from Hitler and the party's early days in the Burgerbraukeller in Munich up to the death of the regime in 1945. The evidence used will span from Hitler's own words in 'Mein Kampf' to the masses of propaganda left behind upon the regimes collapse. The biggest historiographical debate in my opinion on this subject is 'resistenz' argued by Martin Broszat and 'Loyal reluctance' argued mainly by Robert Gellately and Ian Kershaw. During this essay both sides will be evaluated with the idea of popularity at the forefront and how each argument adds or detracts from my argument that the Nazis were mainly a popular regime. Loyal reluctance can be described in this context as loyalty to the regime but reluctance to change in order to fit the image of the regime. For example a women wearing make–up does not necessarily mean she is showing resistance or 'resistenz' but is simply unwilling to change although she supports the regime in full. Up until 1936 conformity had a veneer of legality with the use of the Gestapo and the secret police. Evans used the term 'the sunny side of the regime' (Kershaw, p. 13) to term 1933 to 1936.

From the beginning of the National Socialist Party's rise to power to the downfall of the conquering Nazi regime, the ideology of a racially and biologically superior Germany was a large motivating force for the actions taken by the regime's leaders and its people. National Socialist supporters saw the fictitious Aryan race as the pure, master race of Germany, while minority races and religions, namely Jews, as well as any subculture that did not follow Nazi ideology or social norms, were deemed as inferior sub–humans. Despite the connection of race superiority between Aryan men and women, however, women, somewhat similarly to racial minorities, were perceived as submissive, lesser humans to the Nazi political leaders when compared to the supposedly influential and flawless Aryan men. Men, according to Nazi ideology, are who "make history" and will "devote [their] powers" towards the victory of Germany and the domination of the Aryan race over Europe. Yet, for the Aryan race to successfully rule Europe, a new and large generation of pure Aryan Germans must come into fruition, thus the need for Aryan women's compliance in bearing many children was essential.

A.Plan of Investigation The investigation assesses the Nazi regime from 1933 – 1945 in regards to the totality of their actions. In order to evaluate the Nazi regime on whether or not they were more evil than other genocidal regimes, the investigation evaluates how the Nazis controlled their country. The investigation will start in the early years of the Nazi regime in how they set up their totalitarian government and how they expanded their control. Then the Holocaust will be looked at for how the Nazis treated those they were exterminating. Accounts from soldiers and Jewish people who lived through the Nazi control will be mostly used to evaluate if the Nazis were more evil than other genocidal regimes.

After the Nazi party gained control of the government, there was no way to make them give up this power.

On January 20th 1942, 15 leading officials of the Nazi state met at a villa in Wannsee, a suburb of Berlin, to discuss the "Final solution of the Jewish Question" ("The Final Solution," 2015). They used the term "Final Solution" to refer to their plan to annihilate the Jewish people. It is not known when the leaders of Nazi Germany definitively decided to implement their plan to eradicate the Jews" ("United States Holocaust Memorial Museum," 2015).

  • 26. Hitler 's Propaganda For The Nazi Regime How significant was propaganda for the Nazi regime in 1933–1945? The definition of propaganda is 'information, especially of a biased or misleading nature, used to promote or publicize a particular political cause or point of view'. The Nazis used propaganda as a method to spread their views and to encourage the Germans to support Hitler. Some of the main themes of propaganda was to demonise groups of people (races, religions e.c.t); to portray Hitler as a strong and powerful leader; to emphasise the values of Nazi Germany and to promote the idea of an Aryan Germany having superiority above all other countries. The person in charge of propaganda was Josef Goebbels, who Hitler placed in charge of the Ministry of Public Enlightenment and Propaganda. This department used many methods to 'enlighten' the public for example different art forms including music and cinema, radio, the press, literature, rallies, posters and sports. The Nazis used various different forms of art to subtly put across their messages to the people and Germany. For example film and theatre which Goebbels thought was essential for 'influencing the mass'. To do this he made film much more accessible for people so that more people could be influenced. They did this because they saw the growing interest in film industry, with films growing in both production and audience. As well as this movies were all regulated by Goebbels which meant that several foreign films were banned from being watched in Germany. ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 27. The Killings And Racial Repressions Of Adolf Hitler And... The mass killings and racial repression brought on by the Nazi regime is abhorrent. The Nazi regime singled out the Jewish community to reconcile the belief that Germany had been betrayed in World War I. Once the Jewish community had been made the victim, the system of overlapping agencies pushed institutions to the extreme as they competed for Hitler's attention. The effect of competing to earn consideration created systemic brutality towards the Jewish people in Germany. From the creation of concentration camps and into the concentration camps created a "gray zone" within where prisoners competed for special treatment by displaying their harshness towards their own compatriots. The Nazi system of racial repression and mass murder of the Jewish population in Germany originated in Adolf Hitler's personal shortcomings as a failed artist and as a scapegoat for Germany's defeat in World War. The system was operated by sycophants acting obsequiously to Hitler in hopes of raising their standing with Hitler to further their career. The origins of Hitler's anti–Semitism are widely debated by historians. Common theories include: a self–loathing for Hitler's own partial Jewish identity, reaction from hysterical trauma suffered from mustard gas in World War I, sexual fantasies, and a persecution complex. According to Ian Kershaw these theories offer "...differing degrees of plausibility but ultimately amount to no more than guesswork." Kershaw argues that the only thing that can be presumed about the foundations of Hitler's hatred is his low self–esteem, his frustrations of being a drop–out, failed artist, and being an outsider of society. On top of this, Hitler was reading pan–German anti–Semitic newspapers and admired deeply the Austrian anti–Semite and pan–German Leader Georg von Schonerer and anti–Semitic demagogue Karl Lueger, mayor of Vienna. All of this coupled with Germany's defeat in World War I led Hitler to find a justification for the world, as he saw it, falling apart.

Probably one of the most significant and blatant acts of opposition towards Nazism occurred during the latter stages of the war in July 1944 when a bomb plot executed by members of the German army took place. The intent was to kill Hitler and hopefully end his regime, however the plan failed and Hitler survived despite badly injuring his right arm. The plan was nicknamed the Stauffenberg bomb plot. Although the opposition instances mentioned caused the Nazis some concern, Goebbles and his Nazi propaganda machine managed to overcome them. They did this by taking control of the medial and cultural aspects of Germany to win over the German people.

The source highlights the "considerable deprivation of political rights" which is a key theme within this question, the overall feeling from source z is that the system which Hitler installed was not successful, however, it can be strongly argued that is was, as seen in source y, his manipulation of the lower classes provided Hitler with what can only be described as a mass following. Both source y and z suggest that Hitler understood workers' mentality; in contrast source aa suggests that the regime believed 'Strength through Joy' could have an ideological impact. What this source, written by Richard Evans, shows is that the workers had no understanding, nor did they care for politics, which is a strong contradiction to the theme in source z. It is suggested that the working classes just saw the holidays as an escape from everyday life. However, where this source is lacking is its lack of content over the cultural aspects of the holidays. It states that they were "appreciated", but is not conclusive as to whether the workers were won over by Nazism via the programme. The general consensus as the end of this source is reached is that the programme was ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 33. How Successful Was the Nazi Regime in Dealing with... How successful was the Nazi regime in dealing with opposition? Explain your answer. The Nazi regime dealt with opposition through a combination of persuasion and force. Nazi propaganda was so effective at portraying Hitler and the Nazi ideals in a positive light that many German people believed Hitler was a good leader and genuinely supported him. Others were too intimidated by potential consequences if they spoke against the regime that they did nothing. However, there were some who openly opposed Hitler and had to be dealt with. As Hitler came to power his biggest opponents were political ones and were the first opposition group that Hitler began to deal with. After the Enabling Law he banned all other political parties.

Youth movements such as the Edelweiss Pirates, The Swing Youth and The White Rose Movement opposed the Nazi regime, rejected their values and produced anti–Nazi propaganda in defiance. They were more prominent in the later part of the 1930s and into the war years and were dealt with very harshly by the Nazi regime; 12 of the Edelweiss Pirates were hanged publicly whilst leading members of the White Rose Movement were executed. Although the Nazis dealt swiftly and decisively with the opposition of youth groups, the fact that these young people were rejecting the Nazi ideology they had grown up with suggests that the Nazi attempt to remove opposition by encouraging the loyalty of future generations was not as successful as it may have seemed. The regime also faced opposition from Church leaders. The Protestant Church, and particularly Pastor Martin Niemoller, opposed Hitler's Reich Church whilst members of the Catholic Church were against some of the Nazi's policies such as the Euthanasia Campaign. The Pope spoke out against Hitler and his ideals. Although some leaders were dealt with harshly – Niemoller was sent to a concentration camp and some Catholic priests were executed – the Nazis did not appear to be so effective in dealing with the Church's opposition; most remained open even though leaders ...

The German military was able to acknowledge Konrad Zuse's talent, and dismiss him from solider to engineer. Thus laying a foundation for the future of technology to advance.

The Holocaust And The Nazi Regime During World War II Essay Introduction The Second World War is seen by the modern world to be the most famous war that shaped the communities of the world today, but for the Jewish community in Europe at the time this was the war to fight for their own existence. The Holocaust was the systematic extinction of six million Jews by the Nazi regime during World War 2. Of the millions of Jewish people that lost their lives there were many that did resist and did escape the Nazism and Nazi racial policy that was conducted on the Jewish lives throughout the war. There were different ways the Jews did resist through different dimensions of wellbeing, through uprising in the ghettos and camps in a stretch to revolting against their German captivators whilst secretly keeping their spiritual and religious beliefs as something that the Nazis could never physically take from them. The Jews showed resistance to German control also by escaping the camps, and creating Armies and Partisan Groups to fight back.

Hitler's aim was to indoctrinate the young people as they were seen as an easy target. Hitler said, "It is my great educative work I am beginning with the young… With them I can make a new world." Hitler said this because he knew that the future of Germany was lying in its children's hands. He wanted to ensure future soldiers to fight and win in wars for Germany in order to regain and gain land. Hitler also found the young people easy to indoctrinate as their minds were still young enough to be moulded.

In 1933 there were 66,060,000 inhabitants of the German Reich of whom 499,862 were Jews. What is the percentage of aliens in Germany?" Hitler also had special school for students in which leading Nazis felt excelled others. These were called "order castles" or "Adolf Hitler schools". These would train boys for military situations in order to keep a strong and eager army. In these schools the boys would take part in exciting parades and learn how to be the perfect Nazi. They would also learn how to look after themselves, to use teamwork, salvage work, Nazi theory, Sport, fixing bikes, and Morse code/tactics of war. There were many aspects of the youth movements that appealed to the young people. They loved being a part of something, and having a position to live for, as they were given a sense of authority. The youth movements gave the young people a way of channelling their natural rebelliousness. In 1932, the amount of Hitler youth members was 100,000 people, but by 1939, 8,000,000 people had joined.

Some of them were members of the military, some hid Jews from the Nazis, and some were children fighting against this regime. Fritz Theilen was a member of the Edelweiss Pirates, a group of children who actively worked against the Nazis. Fritz had been a member of Hitler Youth before becoming a Pirate, like most of the other boys. In 1940 he was expelled for insubordination.

  • 39. 1984 Nazi Regime Essay 1984 and the Nazi Regime George Orwell, in his dystopian novel 1984 written shortly after World War II, creates an allusion between Nazi Germany's past and Oceania's future in regards to the attitude and structure of the two societies. The novel is told by an omniscient narrator following Winston, a man questioning his memory and the morality of Big Brother's government, which is most effective for this novel. Thus, through Winston's internal dialogue, Orwell alludes to Nazi Germany's past to predict Oceania's future in order to create a parallel between the structure and attitudes of the two nations, which communicates his theme (and warns his readers) that certain trends in government will lead to violation of individual rights, and therefore ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... The society is divided into three classes: the proles (working class, comparable to early treatment of the Jews), the outer party (educated members given administrative jobs, or Nazi soldiers), and the inner party (those in power, Hitler and his cohorts). Both the inner and outer party looked down on the proles and paid them no mind with the idea that the proletariats were inferior. Additionally, members of the inner and outer parties shared the same characteristics as those in power of the Nazi regime: "tall muscular youths and deep–bosomed maidens, blond–haired, vital, sunburnt, carefree" (60). In addition to the similarities in structure, Oceania also destroyed all books created before Big Brother gained power. Therefore, the structure of Oceania is a direct parallel to Nazi Germany and conveys Orwell's message that an initial breach of individual liberties will continue until all originality is destroyed. However, Oceania had slight variations from its predecessor. One example of this is the absence of labor camps orchestrated to contain the proles. Instead, the proles and the parties intermingled at the ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
