- The Nazis expressed populist yearnings of the middle class and advocated a strong, anti-Marxist mobilization representing the common good of the German people. They portrayed themselves as breaking down social barriers and celebrating the populist community, focusing pre-existing middle class resentments against the establishment and privilege. This populist rhetoric, promising to resolve resentments in a technologically advanced people's utopia, was key to their appeal.

The Yalta Conference saw Allied leaders agree that Germany would be divided into four occupation zones after defeat, that war criminals would be prosecuted, and that liberated countries could hold free elections. They disagreed over Poland's borders. The Potsdam Conference addressed postwar issues in Germany, including reparations, with disagreements between Stalin and the new US President Truman over Soviet influence in Eastern Europe.

The document summarizes several key events that contributed to increased tensions during the Cold War between the USSR and the Western powers led by the US. It describes disagreements over postwar control of Eastern Europe at conferences in Yalta and Potsdam. It then outlines how Stalin ensured communist control of Eastern European states through "salami tactics" and responses in the West like the Truman Doctrine and Marshall Plan. Major flashpoints that exacerbated the Cold War included the Berlin Blockade, the Korean War, the Hungarian Uprising of 1956, the U-2 Crisis, the building of the Berlin Wall, and the Cuban Missile Crisis, which brought the world closest to nuclear war.
The Cold War began due to mutual distrust between the US and USSR following World War II. Though they allied against Hitler, ideological differences grew after the war as the Soviet Union installed communist governments across Eastern Europe and ignored promises of self-determination. Both sides wanted to spread their political and economic systems, seeing the other as inherently evil, leading to a policy of containment by the US and an arms race involving nuclear weapons that raised the stakes of a potential conflict.

International peace collapsed by 1939 due to the failures of the treaties ending World War 1 and the League of Nations in the 1930s. The treaties imposed harsh terms on Germany, fueling resentment. Germany, Italy, and Japan increasingly remilitarized in violation of treaty terms while Britain and France failed to respond effectively through the League. Hitler pursued aggressive foreign policies including remilitarization of the Rhineland, annexation of Austria and Czechoslovakia, and signing a pact with the Soviet Union. Britain and France pursued a failed policy of appeasement until invading German troops ignited World War 2 with the invasion of Poland in 1939.
The Nazi party began in 1919 when Hitler joined the German Workers' Party and helped transform it into the National Socialist German Workers' Party (NSDAP). In the early 1920s, the Nazis used the Sturmabteilung (SA) paramilitary group to attack political opponents and seize power in the failed 1923 Beer Hall Putsch in Munich. After spending time in prison for treason, Hitler wrote Mein Kampf and reorganized the Nazi party for a new strategy pursuing power through legal democratic processes rather than revolution. The Nazis exploited economic instability and political divisions in Germany to gain popular support and parliamentary seats, culminating in Hitler being appointed chancellor in 1933 where he quickly consolidated power through the Reichstag Fire Decree and Enabling

Hitler and Nazi Germany - resistance to the regime, 1933 39mrmarr
While Nazi rule was oppressive and totalitarian, there was opposition from various groups in Germany between 1933-1945. Youth groups like the Edelweiss Pirates and White Rose students distributed anti-Nazi materials and hid deserters. The Catholic and Protestant churches publicly criticized Nazi policies like euthanasia and removing crucifixes from schools. Workers organized underground groups and engaged in strikes and protests. The military also opposed Hitler over his aggressive foreign policies and some generals planned coups, while the Abwehr intelligence agency supported anti-Nazi activities. Assassination attempts were made, most notably the 1944 plot by the Kreisau Circle. However, this opposition ultimately failed to overthrow the Nazi regime.
CAMBRIDGE A2 HISTORY: STALIN SOCIAL AIMS - EDUCATION, WOMEN'S RIGHTS AND EDUC...George Dumitrache
Stalin pursued three main social aims: education, women's rights, and Russification. For education, he made it compulsory and free to increase literacy but also used it to indoctrinate students with communist ideals. For women's rights, some policies benefited women but the main aim was to increase the birth rate to provide more workers. For Russification, Stalin promoted the Russian language and culture to unite ethnic groups, facilitate the transition to communism, and ready the Soviet Union for war.
The document provides an overview of the rise of dictators in the period between 1918-1939. It begins by discussing how many believed a new age of democracy had dawned after World War 1, but instead the years became an era of dictatorship. It then summarizes the rise of three dictators:
1) Joseph Stalin in Russia/Soviet Union who consolidated power after Lenin's death and instituted brutal policies like collectivization, purges, and famine that killed millions.
2) Benito Mussolini in Italy who formed the Fascist party and seized power in 1922, becoming Il Duce and allying with Hitler.
3) Adolf Hitler in Germany who joined the Nazi party after WW1 and transformed it
1) Nazi Germany pursued an aggressive foreign policy aimed at expanding German territory and dominance under Hitler's goal of Lebensraum.
2) This foreign policy had significant economic and social impacts on Germany by increasing military spending and jobs, gaining new resources from annexed lands, and instilling national pride but also took workers from private industry.
3) Hitler's foreign successes enhanced his reputation among Germans and helped consolidate his power until the start of World War 2, though some feared the prospect of war bringing devastation.
Stalin transformed the Soviet Union into a totalitarian state through five-year plans, forced collectivization, and brutal repression. He imposed a command economy, rapidly industrialized the country, and forcibly collectivized agriculture, causing millions to die in famines and purges. Stalin created a cult of personality, tightly controlled all aspects of society, and purged millions of perceived opponents through executions and the Gulag system of labor camps.
The document discusses Stalin's Great Terror and purges in the Soviet Union during the 1930s. It describes how Stalin used state machinery like the secret police to eliminate enemies through public show trials and labor camps. Over time, Stalin purged members of the left opposition, party officials, the military, secret police, and eventually the right opposition. By some estimates, hundreds of thousands of people were executed during the Yezhovschina period from 1937-1938 as Stalin consolidated his power and control over the Soviet Union.
Hitler established the Führerprinzip, or leader principle, which made him the absolute dictator and sole source of authority in Nazi Germany. A cult of personality was built around Hitler, with his image displayed everywhere and the greeting "Heil Hitler" becoming obligatory. The Führer stood at the top of the Nazi hierarchy, with various Reichsleiter and Gauleiter directly below and responsible to him. The Führerprinzip required complete obedience to one's superiors and justified the actions of Nazi war criminals who claimed they were just following orders. It established an authoritarian power structure that centralized all control and decision-making in Hitler's hands alone.

This document provides an overview of the Cuban Missile Crisis of 1962. It discusses the long-term causes stemming from Cuba's revolution and deteriorating relations with the US. It then outlines the key events that led to the crisis, including Russia placing nuclear missiles in Cuba. The document examines President Kennedy's options for responding and his decision to enact a naval blockade. It summarizes the standoff between the US and Russia and their eventual agreement to remove the missiles from Cuba in exchange for the US removing missiles from Turkey. In conclusion, it discusses the improved relations and nuclear agreements that resulted from crisis.
In this lesson, we looked at the impact that Stalin had on the Soviet Union after he had taken over. We started out by considering his economic impact, which focused on his Five Year Plans.
Joseph Stalin was born in 1879 in Georgia and later became the leader of the Soviet Union. He rose to power by becoming the General Secretary of the Communist Party in 1922. As the leader, he industrialized and centralized Russia through five-year plans, but this caused disruption and the imprisonment of millions of people. Stalin transformed Russia from an agrarian society into an industrial power, but his methods were brutal and resulted in widespread death and famine. He ruled as dictator until his death in 1953, establishing a totalitarian regime through secret police and purges of potential rivals.

This document summarizes the complex development of Stalin's cult of personality and the production of the first major biography about him in the 1930s USSR. It describes the various ideological and political factors that led Soviet propagandists to promote Stalin's charismatic leadership through a cult, including the difficulties of mobilizing the populace with abstract Marxist-Leninist ideas given low education levels. It outlines the many competing efforts within the party to produce the first official biography, and the political infighting this caused between figures like Beria, Tovstukha, and Iaroslavskii, with Beria ultimately succeeding first in 1935.

Alfred Rosenberg was an early member and leader of the Nazi party who developed many of their racist ideals. He published articles promoting the conquest of Eastern Europe and was later executed as a war criminal.
The SS began as Hitler's personal bodyguards but grew drastically under Himmler to become one of the largest groups in Nazi Germany. They remained fiercely loyal to Hitler and guarded key Nazi meetings and facilities.
The Nazi concept of Lebensraum called for expanding German territory eastward to settle ethnic Germans and remove Jews, Slavs, and others deemed inferior to make room for the German "master race." This idea was outlined in Hitler's Mein Kampf.
Alfred Rosenberg was an early member and leader of the Nazi party who developed many of their racist ideals. He urged the conquest of Poland and Russia to gain Lebensraum, or living space, for Germans. At the Nuremberg trials, he was sentenced to death for war crimes.

The Holocaust was a genocide carried out by Nazi Germany against European Jews during World War II. Hitler rose to power in Germany and established a totalitarian regime. He implemented racist policies and propaganda targeting Jews. Concentration camps were established where Jews and others were imprisoned and exterminated. Extermination camps like Auschwitz were built for systematic mass killings using gas chambers. Despite overwhelming odds, some resisted like the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising and the White Rose resistance group in Germany. The Holocaust ended as Allied forces liberated camps in 1945.
This document provides information about a lesson on Hitler and the Nazi Party in Germany. It discusses the 1919 Spartacist Revolt led by communists in Germany and how it helped the Nazis rise to power later. It then focuses on explaining the 1923 Beer Hall Putsch (also called the Munich Putsch), where Hitler and the Nazis unsuccessfully attempted to seize power in Munich through a rebellion. Key events discussed include Hitler gathering supporters, storming a beer hall to declare a national revolution, marching to the city center to gain public support, and being arrested after police put down the revolt.
The document discusses several key members of the failed 20 July plot of 1944 to assassinate Adolf Hitler and remove the Nazi Party from power in Germany. It provides biographical details on Claus von Stauffenberg, Henning von Tresckow, Friedrich Olbricht, Werner von Haeften, and Albrecht Mertz von Quirnheim, all high-ranking military officers who were leading members of the resistance group behind the assassination attempt. It describes their backgrounds, roles in the conspiracy, and reasons for turning against Hitler and the Nazi regime.
The document provides information about Nazism in Germany from 1933 to 1945 under Adolf Hitler. It discusses how Nazism promoted racial superiority of Aryans and annihilation of Jews. Key events included Hitler becoming Chancellor in 1933 and destroying democracy by banning opposition. The Nazi regime persecuted Jews and other groups, and used propaganda to spread its racist ideology, especially targeting youth. By 1945, Nazi policies had led to World War 2 and the defeat of Germany.
Nazi Control of Germany - The One-Party StateYZPresentations
The Nazi regime established total control over Germany through its consolidation of power in the legal system and security forces. It ensured that only loyal Nazis were appointed as judges and lawyers. It also created a parallel Nazi legal system and reduced the role of defense lawyers. Additionally, the SS and Gestapo secret police forces grew enormously in size and power, taking control of the legal system and operating without restraint as they arrested opponents, Jews, and other victims. By 1945, the Nazi regime had almost entirely suppressed opposition in Germany through the terror and intimidation tactics of the SS and Gestapo.
What happened to the jewish population after wwii.pptxLucyBeamHoffman
The Wannsee Conference was a meeting of senior Nazi German officials held in January 1942 to coordinate plans for the Holocaust. Reinhard Heydrich outlined plans for the "Final Solution" which envisioned the systematic annihilation of 11 million European Jews. The goals of the conference were to secure support for implementing the Final Solution and to coordinate Nazi policies towards Jews.
The Holocaust was the systematic state-sponsored persecution and murder of approximately six million European Jews by the Nazi regime and its collaborators between 1933 and 1945. The Nazis believed Germans were racially superior and Jews were an inferior threat to the German racial community. They began by stripping Jews of citizenship and livelihoods before deporting them to overcrowded ghettos and concentration camps where appalling conditions killed thousands through disease, starvation, brutal treatment and exposure. The Holocaust occurred throughout German-occupied Europe, with Jews murdered in mass shootings and gas chambers. It was driven by Nazi racial antisemitism and conspiracy theories blaming Jews for Germany's defeat in World War I.
The document provides background information on the roots of anti-Semitism and the rise of Nazi Germany. It discusses how Hitler blamed Jews for Germany's problems after World War I and used them as scapegoats. Key events included the establishment of ghettos and concentration camps like Dachau and Auschwitz, as well as the Nuremberg Laws that stripped Jews of their rights and labeled them with the Star of David. The SS and Gestapo enforced Nazi policies of oppression and violence against Jews, culminating in the Kristallnacht pogrom.
The document summarizes key events and policies related to the rise of Nazi Germany and Adolf Hitler's anti-Semitic ideology and actions in the 1930s-1940s. It discusses the 1935 Nuremberg Laws that classified people as German or Jewish based on grandparents, depriving Jews of citizenship. It also describes Kristallnacht in 1938 when Nazi-led mobs attacked Jewish communities and synagogues across Germany, arresting 30,000 Jewish men and sending them to concentration camps. Hitler's "final solution" sought the extermination of all Jews in Europe.
The document summarizes the events of the Munich Beer Hall Putsch of 1923, when Hitler and the Nazi party attempted to seize control of Munich and overthrow the German government. Hitler took control of a meeting and forced the heads of the Bavarian government, army, and police to agree to support his plans, but they changed their minds. The next day, Hitler's armed march was met by police and clashes left 16 Nazis and 4 police officers dead. Hitler was imprisoned for nine months, during which he wrote Mein Kampf. While initially a failure, the Putsch increased Hitler's national profile through media coverage and his trial, where he criticized the German government.
The document provides background information on Anne Frank and the events leading up to her family going into hiding during World War II. It describes the rise of the Nazi party in Germany in the 1930s, with Hitler becoming Chancellor in 1933. It outlines the Nazis' anti-Semitic policies and legislation that isolated Jews from society. As tensions increased, the Frank family moved to Amsterdam in 1933 but went into hiding in 1942 after Margo received a call-up notice to a labor camp. They hid in a secret annex for over two years until they were arrested in 1944.
Adolf Hitler was an Austrian-born German politician and leader of the Nazi Party who served as Chancellor of Germany from 1933 to 1945. He rose to power during Germany's economic struggles after WWI. As leader, he established a dictatorship, pursued an aggressive foreign policy that precipitated WWII, and enacted genocidal policies, most notably towards Jews and Slavs, that resulted in the Holocaust. In 1945, as the Soviet army advanced on Berlin, Hitler committed suicide along with his wife Eva Braun in his underground bunker.

07. DEPTH STUDY GERMANY: NAZI REGIME - REICHSTAG FIRE
On February 27, 1933, the German parliament (Reichstag) building burned down. The Nazi leadership and its coalition partners used the fire to claim that Communists were planning a violent uprising. They claimed that emergency legislation was needed to prevent this. The resulting act, commonly known as the Reichstag Fire Decree, abolished a number of constitutional protections and paved the way for Nazi dictatorship.

05. DEPTH STUDY GERMANY: NAZI REGIME - HITLER CONSOLIDATING POWER 1933-34.PPTX
Following Hitler’s appointment as chancellor the Nazis were finally in a position of power.
However, this power was limited, as the Nazis were just one party in a three party coalition government, under President Hindenburg.
This topic will explore how the Nazis managed to eliminate their opposition and consolidate ultimate power over Germany, whilst maintaining an illusion of democracy.
It will first explore this topic in chronological order, from the Reichstag Fire through to the death of President Hindenburg, and then explore it thematically in the last section. On the 31 January 1933, Hitler, conscious of his lack of a majority in the Reichstag, immediately called for new elections to try and strengthen his position. The Nazis aimed to increase their share of the vote so that they would have a majority in the Reichstag. This would allow them to rule unopposed and unhindered by coalition governments.
Over the next two months, they launched themselves into an intense election campaign.
On 27 February 1933, as the campaign moved into its final, frantic days, the Reichstag, the German Parliament building, was set on fire and burnt down. An atmosphere of panic and terror followed the event.
This continued when a young Dutch communist, Van der Lubbe was arrested for the crime.
The Nazi Party used the atmosphere of panic to their advantage, encouraging anti-communism. Göring declared that the communists had planned a national uprising to overthrow the Weimar Republic. This hysteria helped to turn the public against the communists, one of the Nazis main opponents, and 4000 people were imprisoned.
The day after the fire, Hindenburg signed the Emergency Decree for the Protection of the German People. On the 28 February 1933, President Hindenburg signed the Emergency Decree for the Protection of the German People. This decree suspended the democratic aspects of the Weimar Republic and declared a state of emergency.
This decree gave the Nazis a legal basis for the persecution and oppression of any opponents, who were be framed as traitors to the republic. People could be imprisoned for any or no reason.
The decree also removed basic personal freedoms, such as the freedom of speech, the right to own property, and the right to trial before imprisonment.
Through these aspects the Nazis suppressed any opposition to their power, and were able to start the road from democracy to a dictatorship. The atmosphere of uncertainty following the Reichstag Fire secured many voters for the Nazi party.
The SA also ran a violent campaign of terror against any and all opponents of the Nazi regime. Many were terrified of voting of at all, and many turned to voting for the Nazi Party out of fear for their own safety. The elections were neither free or fair.
On the 5 March 1933, the elections took place, with an extremely high turnout of 89%.
The Nazis secured 43.9% of the vote.
DEPTH STUDY GERMANY: NAZI REGIME - 04. HITLER BECOMING CHANCELLOR 1933George Dumitrache
Hitler was not immediately appointed chancellor after the success of the July 1932 elections, despite being leader of the largest party in the Reichstag. It took the economic and political instability (with two more chancellors failing to stabilise the situation) to worsen, and the support of the conservative elite, to convince Hindenburg to appoint Hitler.
Hitler was sworn in as the chancellor of Germany on the 30 January 1933. The Nazis were now in power.
DEPTH STUDY GERMANY: NAZI REGIME - 03. NAZI'S LITTLE SUCCESSGeorge Dumitrache
The document discusses the early success of the Nazi party in Germany. It notes that while the party made progress in organization and membership in its early years after 1919, it had little impact in elections initially. The Nazis received only 6.5% of the vote in their first national election in 1924. Later elections in 1928 saw their support decline further to just 2.6% as the German economy and political situation stabilized under Stresemann. While the Nazis appealed to specific groups frustrated with the Weimar Republic, they remained a small party with less than 30,000 members by 1925.
DEPTH STUDY GERMANY: NAZI REGIME - 02. NAZI PARTY IDEOLOGY IN 1920George Dumitrache
The document provides background information on the origins and early development of the Nazi party in Germany during the 1920s. It describes how the party began as the German Workers' Party led by Anton Drexler before Hitler joined in 1919 and became the leader in 1921. It also outlines some of the key aspects of the Nazi party platform outlined in the 25-point program, including nationalism, anti-Semitism, and a desire for more territory. Finally, it discusses Hitler's failed Munich Putsch coup attempt in 1923 and how he wrote Mein Kampf while in prison.
1) Post-war instability and economic crisis weakened established political systems in countries like Germany and Italy. 2) A sense of nationalism was used by fascist leaders to promote unity and scapegoat others for the nation's problems. 3) Charismatic leaders like Hitler and Mussolini were able to gain followers by promoting fascism as an alternative to communism and liberal democracy.
DEPTH STUDY GERMANY: WEIMAR REPUBLIC - 10. THE FALL OF WEIMAR 1930-1933George Dumitrache
The document provides background information on the rise of the Nazi party in Germany between 1930-1933. It discusses how Germany's economic dependence on American loans led to the collapse of German industry following the 1929 Wall Street crash. This caused widespread unemployment, with over 6 million people jobless by 1932. As economic conditions deteriorated, support grew for the Nazis as they promised strong leadership and blamed Jews and communists for Germany's problems. The Nazis increased their Reichstag seats in elections in 1933 after Hitler became Chancellor, and he then used emergency powers to crush opposition and establish a one-party Nazi state in Germany.
DEPTH STUDY GERMANY: WEIMAR REPUBLIC - 09. TABLES AND CARTOONSGeorge Dumitrache
The document discusses the Weimar Republic in Germany through tables and cartoons as part of a Cambridge IGCSE depth study on Germany. It provides information on the political and economic challenges faced by the Weimar Republic between 1919-1933 through statistical tables and illustrations. The depth study uses multiple visual elements to summarize key events and issues like inflation, unemployment, and the rise of extremism during this period of German history.
DEPTH STUDY GERMANY: WEIMAR REPUBLIC - 08. NAZIS IN THE WILDERNESSGeorge Dumitrache
The “Lean Years” (also called the "wilderness" years) of Hitler and the Nazi Party in Germany refer to the period between 1924 and 1928 when the Nazi party did not have high levels of support and still suffered from humiliation over the Munich Putsch. Why where these years “lean”?
DEPTH STUDY GERMANY: WEIMAR REPUBLIC - 07. STRESEMMAN ERA 1924-1929George Dumitrache
Gustav Stresemann was appointed Chancellor of Germany in 1923 during the Weimar Republic period. As Chancellor and later as Foreign Minister, he implemented policies that helped stabilize Germany's economy and improve its international standing. This included establishing a new currency to end hyperinflation, crushing communist uprisings, and pursuing diplomatic agreements like the Locarno Pact to normalize Germany's relations with other European powers. However, the economic and political stability of the Weimar Republic remained fragile.
DEPTH STUDY GERMANY: WEIMAR REPUBLIC - 06. THE BEER HALL PUTSCH 1923George Dumitrache
The Beer Hall Putsch, also known as the Munich Putsch, was a failed coup d'état by Nazi Party (Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei or NSDAP) leader Adolf Hitler, Generalquartiermeister Erich Ludendorff and other Kampfbund leaders in Munich, Bavaria, on 8–9 November 1923, during the Weimar Republic. Approximately two thousand Nazis marched on the Feldherrnhalle, in the city centre, but were confronted by a police cordon, which resulted in the deaths of 16 Nazi Party members and four police officers. Hitler escaped immediate arrest and was spirited off to safety in the countryside. After two days, he was arrested and charged with treason. The putsch brought Hitler to the attention of the German nation for the first time and generated front-page headlines in newspapers around the world. His arrest was followed by a 24-day trial, which was widely publicised and gave him a platform to express his nationalist sentiments to the nation. Hitler was found guilty of treason and sentenced to five years in Landsberg Prison, where he dictated Mein Kampf to fellow prisoners Emil Maurice and Rudolf Hess. On 20 December 1924, having served only nine months, Hitler was released. Once released, Hitler redirected his focus towards obtaining power through legal means rather than by revolution or force, and accordingly changed his tactics, further developing Nazi propaganda.
DEPTH STUDY GERMANY: WEIMAR REPUBLIC - 05. HYPERINFLATIONGeorge Dumitrache
Hyperinflation affected the German Papiermark, the currency of the Weimar Republic, between 1921 and 1923, primarily in 1923. It caused considerable internal political instability in the country, the occupation of the Ruhr by France and Belgium, and misery for the general populace.
DEPTH STUDY GERMANY: WEIMAR REPUBLIC - 03. THE TREATY OF VERSAILLES IMPACT ON...George Dumitrache
Thanks to the Treaty of Versailles, Germany's ability to produce revenue-generating coal and iron ore decreased. As war debts and reparations drained its coffers, the German government was unable to pay its debts. Some of the former World War I Allies didn't buy Germany's claim that it couldn't afford to pay.
DEPTH STUDY GERMANY: WEIMAR REPUBLIC - 02. THE NOVEMBER REVOLUTION 1918George Dumitrache
The German Revolution or November Revolution was a civil conflict in the German Empire at the end of the First World War that resulted in the replacement of the German federal constitutional monarchy with a democratic parliamentary republic that later became known as the Weimar Republic. The revolutionary period lasted from November 1918 until the adoption of the Weimar Constitution in August 1919. Among the factors leading to the revolution were the extreme burdens suffered by the German population during the four years of war, the economic and psychological impacts of the German Empire's defeat by the Allies, and growing social tensions between the general population and the aristocratic and bourgeois elite.
DEPTH STUDY GERMANY: WEIMAR REPUBLIC - 01. THE EFFECT OF WW1 ON GERMANYGeorge Dumitrache
The document summarizes the impact of World War 1 on Germany. It discusses how Germany initially found success on the Eastern Front and made advances on the Western Front in 1918 but was eventually overwhelmed as the US joined the war effort. Germany experienced political instability, economic devastation from blockades, widespread hunger and disease, and psychological trauma from defeat. The German people bitterly blamed leaders for the defeat, sowing seeds for the rise of the Nazis in the unstable Weimar Republic that followed the war.
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS - LEAGUE OF NATIONS. The League of Nations was an international organization, headquartered in Geneva, Switzerland, created after the First World War to provide a forum for resolving international disputes.
This cartoon was likely published after the Stresa Pact was signed in early 1935, when Britain and France failed to raise the issue of Abyssinia with Mussolini and were perceived as turning a blind eye to his plans in hopes of keeping Italy as an ally against Germany. The cartoon directly criticizes the British and French policy of appeasing Mussolini, so the purpose was to criticize, not just inform. By criticizing the policy, the hope would be to influence and change the policy by swaying public opinion.
Manchurian Crisis. On September 18, 1931, an explosion destroyed a section of railway track near the city of Mukden. The Japanese, who owned the railway, blamed Chinese nationalists for the incident and used the opportunity to retaliate and invade Manchuria.
05. LEAGUE OF NATIONS - Great Depression and LON.pptxGeorge Dumitrache
GREAT DEPRESSION AND THE LEAGUE OF NATIONS. The Great Depression of 1930-33 meant people turned to extremist dictators such as Hitler and Mussolini, who were keen to invade other countries. This made it hard for the League to maintain peace. The League had some very ambitious plans and ideals – to stop war and make the world a better place.

3. • It is always in regard to the question, always relate your need to write
(quantity) as one argument to answer your question.
• The most important thing is the nature and timing of the decisions that led to
the Final Solution.
• The program evolved during the first 25 months of war leading to the
attempt at "murdering every last Jew in the German grasp“.
• Most historians agree (Christopher Browning), that the Final Solution cannot
be attributed to a single decision made at one particular point in time.
• "It is generally accepted the decision-making process was prolonged and
incremental.“
• Write only the main ideas, you won’t have enough time to go in details. Only
if this is the subject of your exam question you will write about:
responsibilities, early policies, victims, ghettos, atrocities, camps, resistance,
allied response, aftermath.
4. • Wannsee Conference, meeting of Nazi officials on January 20, 1942, in the
Berlin suburb of Wannsee to plan the “final solution” (Endlösung) to the so-
called “Jewish question” (Judenfrage).
• On July 31, 1941, Nazi leader Reichsmarschall Hermann Göring had issued
orders to Reinhard Heydrich, SS (Nazi paramilitary corps) leader and Gestapo
(Secret Police) chief, to prepare a comprehensive plan for this “final solution.”
The Wannsee Conference, held six months later, was attended by 15 Nazi
senior bureaucrats led by Heydrich and including Eichmann, chief of Jewish
affairs for the Reich Central Security Office.
• An earlier idea, to deport all of Europe’s Jews to the island of Madagascar, off
of Africa, was abandoned as impractical in wartime. Instead, the newly
planned final solution would entail rounding up all Jews throughout Europe,
transporting them eastward, and organizing them into labour gangs. The
work and living conditions would be sufficiently hard as to fell large numbers
by “natural diminution”; those that survived would be “treated accordingly.”
5. • The men seated at the table were among the elite of the Reich. More than half
of them held doctorates from German universities!
• The men needed little explanation. They understood that “evacuation to the
east” was a euphemism for concentration camps and that the “final solution”
was to be the systematic murder of Europe’s Jews, which is now known as the
Holocaust.
• The final protocol of the Wannsee Conference never explicitly mentioned
extermination, but, within a few months after the meeting, the Nazis installed
the first poison-gas chambers in Poland in what came to be called
extermination camps.
• Responsibility for the entire project was put in the hands of Heinrich
Himmler and his SS and Gestapo.
6.
7. • Waffen SS (Armed SS) was the armed wing of the Nazi Party's Schutzstaffel
(SS, "Protective Squadron").
• Its military formations included men from Nazi Germany, along with
volunteers and conscripts from both occupied and un-occupied lands.
• In September 1934, Hitler authorized the formation of the military wing of
the Nazi Party and approved the formation of the SS-Verfügungstruppe (SS-
VT), a special service troop under Hitler's overall command.
• The SS-VT had to depend on the German Army for its supply of weapons and
military training.
• More complex explanation on next slide.
8. • When Hitler, with SS help, purged the SA in 1934 and reduced it to political
impotence, the SS became an independent group responsible, via Himmler, to
Hitler alone.
• Between 1934 and 1936 Himmler and his chief adjutant, Reinhard Heydrich,
consolidated SS strength by gaining control of all of Germany’s police forces
and expanding their organization’s responsibilities and activities.
• At the same time, special military SS units were trained and equipped along
the lines of the regular army.
• By 1939 the SS, now numbering about 250,000 men, had become a massive
and labyrinthian bureaucracy, divided mainly into two groups:
• the Allgemeine-SS (General SS)
• the Waffen-SS (Armed SS).
9. • The Allgemeine-SS dealt mainly with police and “racial” matters.
• Its most important division was the Reichssicherheitshauptamt (RSHA; Reich
Security Central Office), which oversaw the Sicherheitspolizei (Sipo; Security
Police), which, in turn, was divided into the Kriminalpolizei (Kripo; Criminal
Police) and the dreaded Gestapo under Heinrich Müller.
• The RSHA also included the Sicherheitsdienst (SD; Security Service), a security
department in charge of foreign and domestic intelligence and espionage.
10. • The Waffen-SS was made up of three subgroups: the Leibstandarte, Hitler’s
personal bodyguard; the Totenkopfverbände (Death’s-Head Battalions),
which administered the concentration camps and a vast empire of slave
labour drawn from the Jews and the populations of the occupied territories;
and the Verfügungstruppen (Disposition Troops), which swelled to 39
divisions in World War II and which, serving as elite combat troops alongside
the regular army, gained a reputation as fanatical fighters.
11.
12. • Marburg Speech was an address given by German Vice Chancellor Franz von
Papen at the University of Marburg on 17 June 1934.
• It is said to be the last speech made publicly, and on a high level, in Germany
against National Socialism. This is the SIGNIFICANCE.
• Papen spoke out publicly about the excesses of the Nazi regime, whose ascent
to power, 17 months earlier when Adolf Hitler became chancellor of
Germany, had been greatly assisted by him.
• In his speech, Papen called for an end to rule by terror and the clamouring
for a "second revolution" by the Sturmabteilung (SA – the NSDAP's storm
troopers), and the restoration of some measure of civil liberties.
13.
14. • After Hess' solo flight to Britain on 10 May 1941 to seek peace negotiations
with the British government, Bormann assumed Hess' former duties, with the
title of Head of the Parteikanzlei (Party Chancellery).
• He had final approval over civil service appointments, reviewed and
approved legislation, and by 1943 had de facto control over all domestic
matters.
• He was in office from 12 May 1941 till 2 May 1945. He was preceded by
Rudolf Hess (as Deputy Führer) and had no succesor as the position was
abolished.
• So the answer is yes.
15.
16. • The Reich Chancellery was the traditional name of the office of the
Chancellor of Germany (then called Reichskanzler) in the period of the
German Reich from 1871 to 1945.
• Hitler's Chancellery, known as the Kanzlei des Führers der NSDAP
("Chancellery of the Führer of the Nazi Party" or KdF) was a Nazi Party
organization.
• Also known as the Privatkanzlei des Führers, the agency served as private
chancellery of Adolf Hitler, handling many different issues pertaining to
matters such as complaints against party officials, appeals from party courts,
official judgments, clemency petitions by NSDAP fellows and Hitler's personal
affairs.
• The Chancellery established in 1934 in Berlin as a separate agency which
was parallel to the German Reich Chancellery under Hans Heinrich Lammers
and the Nazi Party Chancellery (until 1941: "Staff of the Deputy Führer") in
Munich, led by Martin Bormann.
17.
18. • On 10 May 1941 he undertook a solo flight to Scotland, where he hoped to
arrange peace talks with the Duke of Hamilton, whom he believed to be
prominent in opposition to the British government.
• He secretly flew alone from Augsburg and landed by parachute in Scotland
with peace proposals, demanding a free hand for Germany in Europe and the
return of former German colonies as compensation for Germany’s promise to
respect the integrity of the British Empire.
• Hess’s proposals met with no response from the British government, which
treated him as a prisoner of war and held him throughout World War II.
• His quixotic action was likewise rejected by Hitler himself, who accused Hess
of suffering from “pacifist delusions.”
19. • Hess was immediately arrested on his arrival and was held in British custody
until the end of the war, when he was returned to Germany to stand trial in
the Nuremberg Trials of major war criminals in 1946.
• Throughout much of the trial, he claimed to be suffering from amnesia, but
later admitted this was a ruse. Hess was convicted of crimes against peace and
conspiracy with other German leaders to commit crimes and was transferred
to Spandau Prison in 1947, where he served a life sentence.
• He committed suicide in 1987 at the age of 93.
20.
21. • The Hossbach Memorandum was the summary of a meeting on 5 November
1937 between German dictator Adolf Hitler and his military and foreign
policy leadership where Hitler's future expansionist policies were outlined.
The meeting marked a turning point in Hitler's foreign policies, which then
began to radicalize. It outlined Hitler's plans for expansion in Europe.
According to the Memorandum, Hitler did not want war in 1939 with Britain
and France. What he wanted was small wars of plunder to help support
Germany's struggling economy.
• The Memorandum is often used by intentionalist historians such as Gerhard
Weinberg, Andreas Hillgruber and Richard Overy to prove that Hitler
planned to start a general European war, which became the Second World
War, as part of a long-range master plan. However, functionalist historians
such as Timothy Mason, Hans Mommsen, and Ian Kershaw argue that the
document shows no such plans, and they instead contend that the Hossbach
Memorandum was an improvised ad hoc response by Hitler to the growing
crisis in the German economy in the late 1930s. JP. Taylor believes that the
meeting was merely an attempt by Hitler to drum up support from the
military.
22.
23. • Otto Adolf Eichmann was Obersturmbannführer (lieutenant colonel) and one
of the major organisers of the Holocaust.
• Eichmann was tasked by SS-Obergruppenführer (general/lieutenant general)
Reinhard Heydrich with facilitating and managing the logistics of mass
deportation of Jews to ghettos and extermination camps in German-occupied
Eastern Europe during World War II.
• Eichmann was to coordinate the details of the final solution; thus, although it
was not yet generally known that the “final solution” was mass execution,
Eichmann had in effect been named chief executioner.
• Thereupon he organized the identification, assembly, and transportation of
Jews from all over occupied Europe to their final destinations at Auschwitz
and other extermination camps in German-occupied Poland.
24. • Eichmann did more than merely follow orders in coordinating an operation
of this scale.
• He was a resourceful and proactive manager who relied on a variety of
strategies and tactics to secure scarce cattle cars and other equipment used to
deport Jews at a time when equipment shortages threatened the German war
effort. He repeatedly devised innovative solutions to overcome obstacles.
• In 1960, he was captured in Argentina by Mossad, Israel's intelligence
service. Following a widely publicised trial in Israel, he was found guilty of
war crimes and hanged in 1962.
25.
26. • The Nuremberg Laws were antisemitic laws in Nazi Germany.
• They were introduced on 15 September 1935 by the Reichstag at a special
meeting convened at the annual Nuremberg Rally of the Nazi Party (NSDAP).
• The two laws were the Law for the Protection of German Blood and German
Honour, which forbade marriages and extramarital intercourse between Jews
and Germans and the employment of German females under 45 in Jewish
households, and the Reich Citizenship Law, which declared that only those of
German or related blood were eligible to be Reich citizens; the remainder
were classed as state subjects, without citizenship rights.
• A supplementary decree outlining the definition of who was Jewish was
passed on 14 November, and the Reich Citizenship Law officially came into
force on that date. The laws were expanded on 26 November 1935 to include
Romani people and Afro-Germans.
• Answer is yes.
27.
28. • Funk, who was a nationalist and anti-Marxist, resigned from the newspaper
in the summer of 1931 and joined the Nazi Party, becoming close to Gregor
Strasser, who arranged his first meeting with Adolf Hitler (YOUR ANSWER).
• Partially because of his interest in economic policy, he was elected a Reichstag
deputy in July 1932, and within the party, he was made chairman of the
Committee on Economic Policy in December 1932, a post that he did not hold
for long.
• After the Nazi Party came to power, he stepped down from his Reichstag
position and was made Chief Press Officer of the Third Reich.
29. • In March 1933, Funk was appointed as a State Secretary at the Ministry of
Public Enlightenment and Propaganda.
• In 1938, he assumed the title of Chief Plenipotentiary for Economics.
• He also became Reich Minister of Economics in February 1938, replacing
Hjalmar Schacht, who had been dropped in November 1937.
• In the court, in his defense he described himself as a little man “who was
frequently allowed up to the door but not in.”
• Göring himself told the court that Funk was an “insignificant” subordinate.
• The court, nevertheless, found him guilty of crimes against the peace, war
crimes, and crimes against humanity, and on October 1 he was sentenced to
life imprisonment.
• He was released from prison on May 16, 1957.
30.
31. • Simple, do not! Nazi Party was the state, that’s the reason why Germany was
not called German Republic but Nazi Germany.
32.
33. • Joseph Stalin began life as a trainee priest, before becoming involved in
radical politics and revolutionary groups.
• By 1917 he was a high-ranking Bolshevik, playing a leading role in the
Russian Revolution and early Soviet Union.
• Though not groomed to lead, Stalin was cunning and manipulative and by
1928 was in charge of Soviet Russia.
• Like Hitler, Stalin wanted to transform and militarise his country – and was
paranoid about threats to his power.
• Though they never met or even spoke, Hitler and Stalin loathed each other on
political grounds. Both men hoped to buy time to prepare for the future Nazi-
Soviet war they knew was inevitable.
• Comparison is futile, there are too many criteria so it is up to your judgement
and about the QUESTION!
34.
