Abstract

It looks at how democracy and Hitler crossed paths on numerous occasions and reviews a number of Hitler?s known ideas and public utterances and provides some speculation and interpretation regarding Hitler?s opinions about the democratic philosophy. It also attempts to show how Adolf Hitler manipulated the democratic process because of how he understood the concept; in order for him to attain true power, the German people needed to elect him into office.

Conclusion
From the Paper
"Adolf Hitler was obviously not a pious man. ?The Old Testament conceived of as a volume written to expound the nationalistic philosophy of the Jewish race is now a favorite item on the Nazi cultural menu. Rosenberg writes in Mythus des 20n Jahrhunderts (Myth of the 20th Century): 'As a book of religion, the Old Testament must be done away with once and for all. That will end the unsuccessful attempt of 1500 years to turn us mentally into Jews.? (Hitler) In the sense that freedom of religion is an essential part of a democratic way of life, Adolf Hitler was totally against several religions other than Judaism. But because his position was strong against the Jews, all of democracy was wrong because of the concept associated with a freedom of religion."

Abstract
The Gleichschaltung Philosophy
Patriotism
Free Will and a Better Life
The Gleichschaltung Philosophy as Applied by the Gestapo and the SS
From the Paper
"The Germans were an extremely patriotic population and the Nazis exploited people's dedication to their country. They had them believe that the Gleichschaltung was in fact synonym to patriotism and nationalism. Depressed by the stains left upon Germany by the defeat suffered during the First World War and by the Treaty of Versailles, the population believed the encouragements given by the Nazis in regard to the country's economic recovery. Wanting to believe that the Nazis would regain Germany's international pride and status, the population found it difficult to distinguish true nationalism from the "radical and revolutionary implications of the Nazi racialist ideology."

The author discusses Hitler's influences and political ideologies as he rose to become the leader of the Nazi Party and then Nazi Germany.

From the Paper
"Adolf Hitler was born on April 20th 1889 in Braunau-am-Inn, located in Austria . He was the fourth child of Klara and Alois Hitler. Hitler?s childhood was rather stress-free, as his father had worked his way up considerably through the Austrian customs service. He worked as a customs guard near the Austrian-German border. Hitler began his schooling in 1900, at the age of 11, and his grades were above average. It was after his first years of schooling that Hitler and his father began to disagree about his future. Hitler wanted to attend Realschule, a secondary school that would prepare him for further study and place an emphasis on modern languages and technical subjects. However, his father preferred that he enter the civil service."

Abstract
The following paper summarizes Machiavelli's theory of politics, what Machiavelli's thoughts might have been on being compared to Hitler and whether or not the writer agrees with Machiavelli's assessment of Hitler?s leadership and politics. In addition, the writer looks at how Machiavelli may have advised Hitler on his leadership skills.
From the Paper
?Machiavelli would say Hitler certainly appeared to possess these qualities that is why a large percentage of the German people supported his Nazi regime. As far as attempting to do good Hitler believed that what he was doing, by exterminating the Jews and other so-called lower races, was good and moreover that the German race was superior. According to his writings in Mein Kampf, Germany was ?the mother of all life? (Hitler,459). According to an Encarta article,? he hoped to conquer the entire world, and for a point in time his Nazi regime dominated most of Europe and much of North Africa. He instituted sterilization and euthanasia measures to enforce his idea of racial purity among German people and caused the slaughter of millions of Jews, Sinti and Roma (Gypsies), Slavic peoples, and many others, all of whom he considered inferior.?

Conclusion
From the Paper
"Many of these children taken from their homes and to various institutions and prisons were murdered. The Nazi's were "expert at the creation of power groups that robbed their opposition of public voice or power. A small tightly knit group of university medical scientists and psychiatrists, who planned and administered the euthanasia killings, dominated university departments, wrote and reviewed articles for one another's journal and never bothered to consult their colleagues." (Sogow, nd) However, there were less than 200 doctors acting as willing participants in medical crimes although hundreds were away of what was occurring in Germany."

Abstract
This paper explains that Hitler came to power in post-World War I Germany on a platform of promises to restore German pride, to undo the ?humiliation? of the Versailles treaty, restoration of the economy, and hatred of the Jews and Bolshevism. The author believes that Hitler could not rise to power without the support of the German people, who were mesmerized by his emotional speeches and his promises of restoring German ?glory'. The paper points out Hitler?s several tactical blunders that eventually led to his ultimate downfall: Dunkirk, where he ordered the halt of a German advance, and the delayed invasion of Russia.

"Despite their policy of appeasement towards Germany, Britain and France also were wary of Hitler?s expansionist designs and had decided that they would declare war if he invaded Poland. Hitler was skeptical about the will of western democracies to fight; and, on September 1, 1939, he decided to ?go for broke? by invading Poland against the advice of his Army that felt it was still not ready for an all out war. Britain and France promptly declared war on Germany which signaled the start of World War II."

Abstract
In the 1920's Hitler created a youth movement that would spearhead a new generation of superior Germans. He named it the Hitler Jugend or Hitler Youth. The paper looks at the circumstances in which the Hitler Youth was introduced and why it was so popular with German youths. It discusses the purpose of the movement including the activities it involved.
From the Paper
"By 1933 Hitler's dream of the Hitler Youth being a staging point for a new Germany was set back when he found out that only but 100 thousand members were part of it. Hitler was not swayed by this, and in 1934 when he came to complete power, he concluded that in order to make the Hitler Youth an epic orginisation, all other youth groups must be shut down and the Hitler Youth must be the sole and best organisation for young Germans. His idea worked and with much encouragement and promotion of the benefits of joining, by 1936 the number of members had reached a staggering 4 million. Although this was a huge number Hitler was not convinced that it would satisfy his dreams, so in that same year, 1936, Hitler made it compulsory to be a member but not compulsory to be an active one. In 1939 and the introduction of war, attendance of non-active members had dropped to 25%, so Hitler made it compulsory to be an active member."

Abstract
Adolph Hitler is undoubtedly one of the most important historical figures of the 20th century. During his reign in Germany as a dictator, he made a tremendous impact on the events that happened on the European continent. His tyrannical rule, which surprisingly, had the support of the majority of the German people, coupled with his imperialistic notions, created a new chapter in European history. The paper shows that the intriguing aspect of Hitler?s life is how he managed to rise from, literally, an unknown person to the position of "Fuhrer of Germany". Several historians have been interested in this meteoric rise of Hitler and have studied the sudden transition of his life, offering their own interpretations. The paper explores this aspect of Hitler?s life in detail by studying the thoughts of different historians so as to gain a better picture of Hitler?s life and the mystery behind his magnetic personality.
From the Paper
"The Great Depression in the early 1930?s was one of the main reasons contributing to Hitler?s success. The Weimar government was not able to standup to the economic crisis, which left millions of German?s without job. People who so far showed little interest in politics were lending their ears to new radical parties in the hope of an economic revival. There was an intense yearning for a leader of the status of ?Kaiser? and the instability of the Weimar republic provided a fertile ground for Hitler and his Nazi party. The policies of the Nazi party attracted the German people who saw it as the only hope in chaotic situation. One of the main points of action promised by the Nazis was the reunion of the German people who were segregated from the mainland due to the implications of the treaty of Versailles."

Abstract
This paper offers a review and summary of this book which is an analysis of the complex personality of Adolph Hitler. It looks at the way in which Hitler managed to use the perfect opportunities available to him to rise to power within a few years in Germany. It questions why and how he was able to gain so much support and glory from the people, and how, through Hitler's personality and charisma, he rose to heights he never expected.
From the Paper
"Was Hitler an evil genius? Was he truly the one and only person whose quest for power brought on World War II, and the slaughter of millions on the battlefields and in concentration camps and in bombed-out cities? The answer has to be No! Despite the fact that he lusted for power, that he even described in ?Mein Kampf? what he had hoped to accomplish, he was merely the right person at the right time, in the right place. It might well have been some other charismatic leader who was determine to avenge what he conceived to be the ?wrongs? done Germany at the end of World War I. What Hitler was able to accomplish in his early years -- meaning the Nineteen Twenties, was to take advantage of the German mood, and the unhappiness of the German army, now in disarray. He was also able to take full advantage of internal strife among the various German states, Bavaria, especially. This seems somehow strange, since Bavaria was a Catholic state. Yet, Hitler and some of his comrades craftily brought out the Communist threat (something that he continued until the very end). There had been a number of attempted Communist uprisings that had been suppressed. But, while politics were only one of his causes, he made the most of Germany?s economic plight- high unemployment, inflation, and a general unhappiness and malaise that spread through the entire country. In one of his early speeches he said: ?Until the present day, the half-hearted and lukewarm have remained the curse of Germany?For liberation, something more is needed than an economic policy? (p.95)."

Abstract
This paper studies the historical background leading to Adolf Hitler's rise to power and the tactics he used to maintain his power. The paper asserts that Hitler created a false sense of security in Germany, which allowed him to quickly rise to power and gain support of the people. It maintains that, through the rejection of the ideas of modernism and glorification of World War I, Hitler easily persuaded Germany to support him and everything that he stood for. The paper adds that the rise of Nazism in Germany allowed Hitler to become dictator. It concludes that Hitler's use of propaganda in particular allowed him to transform Germany from a country in ruin to a seemingly strong and thriving nation.
From the Paper
"Another tool Hitler used to popularize himself was through the rejection of the ideas of modernism. Hitler rejected the new in hopes of reverting Germany back to its traditional ways. Modernism art before Hitler came to power represented Germany in a gruesome light. Hitler's goal was to symbolize the beauty of Germany in terms of racial purity, militarism, and heroism. Core values ruled over the thoughtful and philosophical. Many paintings images were very direct in their meanings of masculinity and power. Former modernist works were referred to as degenerate and either banned or put upon display for ridicule. For example, "Storm troops Advancing under Gas" by Otto Dix was a modernist painting that portrays the horrors of War."

From the Paper
"The media was the major source of information for Americans during the Second World War. In addition, the media created the image of Adolf Hitler as it was perceived by the average American during that time. News about the war was generally received from such sources as radio, newspapers, magazines, and newsreels. These media were also responsible for selling Hitler to the American public. In a way, they acted as propaganda for stirring up American support for the war effort in Europe. The news presentations of Hitler, particularly after the start of World War II, usually showed him as a threat to world peace. The clear message was that Hitler needed to be stopped in order for democracy and freedom to be preserved."
