Hitler's Followers (RLE Nazi Germany & Holocaust)

When originally published in 1991, this book was the first systematic, detailed evaluation of the social structure of the Nazi Party in several regions of Germany during its so-called Kampfzeit phase. Based on extensive archival material, much of it left untouched since the end of the war until Detlef Mühlberger uncovered it, the book demonstrates that the Nazi Party and its major auxiliaries, the SA and the SS mobilized support which was remarkably heterogeneous in social terms. The author reveals that in addition to followers from the middle and upper social classes the Nazi Party enjoyed strong support among the lower class and it was indeed, as it claimed to be a people’s party, or Volkspartei.

What did the Nazis inform the readership of their national newspaper about before 1933? How did they portray the origins and development of the Nazi Party and its specialist organisations at the micro and macro level before the Nazi seizure of power in 1933? What type of propaganda did the Nazis use before 1933 to secure support from specific elements of German society, such as the working class, the peasantry, the urban Mittelstand, and women? What were the main themes of Nazi propaganda projected in its official newspaper before 1933? This study provides the reader with a detailed insight into the content of the Völkischer Beobachter or 'Peoples' Observer', through the use of speeches, reports, articles and various other types of material taken from the Nazi Party's official national newspaper.

The Nazi Seizure of Power

“Tells us how Nazism happened, in microcosm, in a single German town that was neither typical nor exceptional in admitting and then yielding to tyranny.” —The New York Times In this classic work of twentieth-century history, William Sheridan Allen demonstrates how dictatorship subtly surmounted democracy in Germany and how the Nazi seizure of power encroached from below. Relying upon legal records and interviews with primary sources, Allen dissects Northeim, Germany with microscopic precision to depict the transformation of a sleepy town to a Nazi stronghold. This cogent analysis argues that Hitler rose to power primarily through democratic tactics that incited localized support rather...

The Twisted Road to Auschwitz

Going beyond the fanatical anti-Semitism of Hitler and his chiefs, Schleunes analyzes "the internal structure of the [Nazi] regime, the role of its bureaucracies, and the rivalries between competing power groups ... to trace the early stages of discrimination against Jews and their exclusion from public life that led ultimately to their deaths."--p.vii.

“McElligott's impressive mastery of an enormous body of research guides him on a distinctive path through the dense thickets of Weimar historiography to a provocative new interpretation of the nature of authority in Germany's first democracy.” Sir Ian Kershaw, Emeritus Professor of Modern History at the University of Sheffield, UK This study challenges conventional approaches to the history of the Weimar Republic by stretching its chronological-political parameters from 1916 to 1936, arguing that neither 1918 nor 1933 constituted distinctive breaks in early 20th-century German history. This book: - Covers all of the key debates such as inheritance of the past, the nature of authority and culture - Rethinks topics of traditional concern such as the economy, Article 48, the Nazi vote and political violence - Discusses hitherto neglected areas, such as provincial life and politics, the role of law and Republican cultural politics

The Nazi Party in Lower Saxony, 1921-1933

This book addresses the Nazi Party in Lower Saxony. By concentrating on the Nationalverband deutscher Offiziere, 39 Nazi Party (NSDAP) in one particular area between 1921 and 1933, it is hoped to provide a case study of the growth of Nazi organization and propaganda at regional level, and thereby to provide an answer to these and other questions. Above all, this study hopes to give a picture of the development of the party, the phases through which it moved, and the changes in orientation that occurred at various periods.

Die Auswanderung Aus Dem Herzogtum Braunschweig Im Kräftespiel Staatliche Einflussnahme und Öffentlicher Resonanz 1720-1897

Der Fortzug von Untertanen und Landsleuten aus dem Herzogtum Braunschweig fuehrte zu einer Vielzahl von Reaktionen nicht nur auf politischer Ebene sondern auch in der breiten �ffentlichkeit. Dies zeigt, da� das Interesse an dem Ph�nomen �Auswanderung� gro� war. Deshalb galt es im einzelnen zu hinterfragen: Welche Zielvorstellungen lagen der �amtlichen Politik� und der jeweiligen ��ffentlichen Meinung� in der Auswanderungsfrage zugrunde? Welche Wandlungen waren festzustellen und worauf waren diese zurueckzufuehren? Die sorgf�ltig recherchierte Untersuchung stuetzt sich auf ein vielf�ltiges und aussagekr�ftiges Quellenmaterial aus den Akten der verschiedenen an der ...

Hitler's First Hundred Days

The story of how Germans came to embrace the Third Reich.Germany in early 1933 was a country ravaged by years of economic depression and increasingly polarized between the extremes of left and right. Over the spring of that year, Germany was transformed from a republic, albeit a seriously faltering one, into a one-party dictatorship. In Hitler's First Hundred Days, award-winning historian PeterFritzsche examines the pivotal moments during this fateful period in which the Nazis apparently won over the majority of Germans to join them in their project to construct the Third Reich. Fritzsche scrutinizes the events of theperiod - the elections and mass arrests, the bonfires and gunfire, the patriotic rallies and anti-Jewish boycotts - to understand both the terrifying power that the National Socialists came to exert over ordinary Germans and the powerful appeal of the new era that they promised.
