Abstract
This paper looks at Nazi Germany's attempts at the economic recovery of the nation. Hitler's priorities concerning the economic recovery of Germany, programs initiated by Nazi Germany to stimulate the economy, and the principles of Hitler's four-year plan are discussed in this paper.
From the Paper
"In the early 1930?s, Germany was plagued by unemployment and stagnant growth despite efforts by the administration to alleviate the country?s economic difficulties. The economic liberalization of the banking system was one of few cautionary steps taken by administrations prior to Hitler to boost Germany?s failing industries. This all changed following the Nazi rise to power; two notable banking acts passed in 1934 and 1936 effectively converted the banking system into Hitler?s personal lender, allowing him to replace commercial borrowing with the various savings institutes that would allow him to re-build the German army. In this period, wages were frozen and the armaments business boomed, while individuals suffered as wages were frozen at their pre-Hitler-era rate. Meanwhile, the government was able to continue to borrow money from Germany?s savings banks to contribute to the building of the military."

Abstract
The women of Nazi Germany played an important role in the assimilation of fascist ideology. This paper discusses how, while the world outside of Germany perceives the Third Reich in a negative way, Jill Stephenson provides insight on the female role in Nazi Germany in her book "Women in Nazi Germany". It looks at how the book details the inner workings of family life, the benefits of assimilating to Hitler's laws and the role of leadership that women played during Hitler's reign. It also examines how the book demonstrates the power of propaganda, and also depicts a gender defined society that was not perceived as a disparity, but rather empowered men and women to perform their roles for the preservation of national socialism and the Nazi regime.
From the Paper
"The Third Reich championed the traits of the female, noting that the woman was the primary caretaker of children and the holder of developing a strong Nazi population (Stephenson 6). Nazi Germany touted procreation in order to fill up the ranks of the German military and to provide new generations to learn in Hitler-based schooling systems. There was no limitation to birthing, and any form of birth control was illegal. The leaders of Nazi Germany wanted to ensure healthy Aryan children were integrated and educated properly. Unhealthy children were admonished and not considered an integral unit in Nazi society. "

Abstract
This paper discusses the life and works of Karl Marx and Max Weber, highlighting their contributions to sociology. The paper describes the similarities and differences in the philosophy of each man and hypothesizes regarding what they would have thought about Nazi Germany. The paper contends that both the thinkers felt that the key to understanding human nature was that of understanding human actions and these actions were based on social and structural changes. This may explain their feelings on Nazi Germany and the atrocities committed by Hitler, where his actions can only be understood as a part of the social and structural changes of himself as an individual, as well as of himself as he belongs to a society.
From the Paper
"Max Weber, born in 1864, is one of the best-known and most popular scholars of 'sociology', as well as of 'economic work'. One of his best contributions to the cause of economics as well as to sociology is his work entitled "Vertstehen" or what is also known as the theory of 'Interpretative Sociology' and his thinking on 'positivism'. Weber's theory of Verstehen is often seen as being very controversial and questionable. His view is that any research that is connected to history or sociology or economics must be approached with a particular idea or concept, or what is called a 'conceptual apparatus'. This apparatus was referred to be Weber as the 'ideal type', meaning that when an individual needs to understand or comprehend a particular sociological phenomenon, the various 'actions' of the different participants of the phenomena, and not stop at merely describing the phenomenon in itself. (Max Weber, 1864-1920) "

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."

From the Paper
"George Orwell has been a major contributor to anticommunist literature around the World War II period. Orwell lived in England during World War II, a time when the Totalitarianism State, Nazi Germany, was at war with England and destroyed the city of London. "I know that building" said Winston finally. "It's a ruin now. It's in the middle of the street outside the Palace of Justice. That's right. Outside the Law Courts. It was bombed in-oh many years ago.'" (Orwell 83). The main character's being reflects Orwell's own life experiences as a citizen in war torn England and how he uses this in 1984. George Orwell is famous for two major novels, which attack totalitarianism. The first is Animal Farm a satire describing the leaders of the Soviet Union as animals on an animal farm. The second novel is 1984 a story of dictators who are in complete control of a large part of the world after the Allies lost in World War II. The government in this novel gives no freedoms to its citizens. They live in fear because they are afraid of having bad thoughts about the government of Oceania, a crime punishable by death. By employing literary devices such as diction, foreshadowing, and symbolism, Orwell composes a novel "1984" which proves to be a gem in Orwell's collection of novels against totalitarianism."

Bismarck is credited with national unification and creating policies that changed Germany and the rest of the world forever. Initially, Bismarck?s approach to foreign affairs was revolutionary and encouraged solidarity with Russia and Austria. Eventually this solidarity was challenged and Bismarck felt the need to focus on the unity of Germany. There are many different tactics and policies that Bismarck utilized in an effort to control his subjects and support his ideals of unity."

Conclusion
From the Paper
"The German political structure in World War I (from 1916) had been subordinate to the military. At this time the country was an Empire, ruled by the Oberste Heeresleitung (OHL), or the Supreme Army Command. The Chief of Staff at this time was Paul von Hindenburg. At the end of the War the OHL installed a civil government for the benefit of the remainder of Germany after the war. The 1971 constitution was then amended. The Reich (Empire) had become a parliamentary democracy. The Parliament, or the Reichstag, instead of the Emperor, was now responsible for the political welfare of Germany. Such welfare was almost unattainable however, as the end of war meant returning soldiers. The fact that many of these soldiers were wounded both physically and psychologically brought chaos to the German society."

Abstract
This essay examines the role of women and motherhood during the 1930?s, when the Nazi regime took over Germany. It takes a hard look at the views and opinions about women by the leaders of the Nazi regime.
From the Paper
"The Nazi regime?s views of what a woman?s role should be and what they actually were, were very different. A woman?s place was in the home, looking after her husband, her home, and most importantly, her children. The Nazi ideology saw women as inferior to men, a woman should be at home and having children, ?Kinder, Kirche, Kuche?. Goebbels said ?a woman?s primary, rightful, and appropriate place is in the family, and the most wonderful task that she can perform is to present her country and people with children.?[i] The image of marriage and motherhood was sold not only as a benefit to the individual and family but also an obligation to the state. The regime believed in this so much that women could apply for marriage loans, where a woman who was getting married could apply for a marriage loan, on the proviso that she left the job market. "

Abstract
This paper explains that there are a number of factors that led to the Nazi seizure of power. The paper examines the events leading up to the Nazi party's victory, including: the democratic Weimar Republic had always governed on shaky ground; the Depression of 1929 only gave opposition parties more force with which to crush it and create an authoritarian state. The paper then explores the methods used by Hitler to take advantage of the current situation and gain control of the government. Finally the paper looks at Hitler?s extraordinary use of propaganda to further destroy democracy and sway the disorientated masses toward the Right.
From the Paper
"Through the use of unprecedented political exploitation, the Nazis were able to seize power in a country shattered by the failure of democracy and in the depths of a national crisis. The deep-seated weaknesses of the Weimar Republic were easily exploited in plunging the country into political crisis, and the Depression provided an essential backdrop for the radicalisation of the people toward extremist fringe parties. Hitler?s clever political manoeuvres both before and after 1929, which included joining the force against the Young Plan, and redirecting his energies toward rural Germany, combined with his unprecedented use of propaganda, however, proved to be the most essential factors in establishing the political force of the Nazis."

Abstract
The author of this paper looks at Germany after the rise of Hitler to power in 1933 and up until 1941. The writer examines the advances made in Germany during those years in fields such as education, health and medicine, industry, infrastructure, standards of living and science. The author examines the methods chosen by the German government to combat unemployment and to jump-start the depressed German economy. The author contends in his conclusion that: "In many ways, Nazi Germany during the early years of its existence was not such a bad place to live (given that you weren't considered racially inferior, of course). Germans were better off under Hitler than they had ever been under Weimar rule."
From the Paper
"Overlooking the fact that they were not all awarded cars, the gains German citizens made under Nazi rule were significant. Their economy was fully revived, every citizen could find work, housing was affordable, social changes brought gains in equality before unheard of in the class-based nation, and Germans were enjoying a standard of living they remembered only from their distant past. Territorial gains and victory reports were helping to restore a sense of national pride. German researchers and scientists were making tremendous progress in areas such as propulsion and healthcare with the creation of the jet engine and some of the first research to link smoking with lung disease. Programs providing for better food and cleaner drinking water and preventive medicine were established. In many ways, Nazi Germany during the early years of its existence was not such a bad place to live (given that you weren't considered racially inferior, of course). Germans were better off under Hitler than they had ever been under Weimar rule. Hitler brought about many of the economic and social changes he had proposed. For better or worse, Hitler promised and Hitler delivered."

Abstract
The paper talks about the rise to power of Hitler and the Nazi party. The paper discusses the Nazi form of government, culture and economy and explores Hitler's views concerning the master race, the elite Aryans. The paper explains how this led to the genocide of Jews and other minority groups. This is known as the Holocaust, considered the greatest crime against humanity in history. The paper explains that the Holocaust was made possible by the total control of the totalitarian regime of the Nazi Party, the passive consent of the majority of the German population, a collaboration of regimes with similar views and deeply rooted anti-Semitism among Christian countries in Europe.

From the Paper
"Adolph Hitler was an Austrian soldier in the German army, who attended the meetings of the then small Nazi Party in Munich (Suffolk Community College Department 2006). Through his magnetic speeches, Hitler won the admiration of the other soldiers and attracted new members to the Party. He came to be viewed as essential to the movement and he used that sentiment to maneuver himself into its leadership. As the leader, he managed to demand and receive the complete subservience of the Party members. Hitler was described as a fanatical soldier who held racist, anti-Semitic and authoritarian views (Suffolk Community College Department)."

Abstract
This paper is focused on the progression of the anti-Semitic actions of the German people in the 1930?s and 40?s. It looks at the roots of hatred, the legislation that was passed that discriminated against the Jews, an overview of the Holocaust, and the war crimes trials at Nuremberg.
From the paper:
"Hitler harbored a hatred for the Jews that was unparalleled anywhere in the world. Where this hatred stemmed from is unclear, but it was very evident that Hitler blamed the Jews for all the problems in Germany and in his own life, and that he was sincere in his convictions. When he became Fuhrer his view was not only pushed upon the public, it became a nightmare for all the Jews in Germany, and later, for all the Jewish populations of Europe. Hitler sought not just to eliminate their power and influence, but to wipe out the people themselves. What makes it even more ghastly is that he felt that he was doing the world a favor by these actions, and that God had selected him for this mission of purification, which he called "the Final Solution". Using his unique speaking ability, Hitler preached that the Aryan race was the master race, and the inferior Jews were holding them back, spreading lies and evil in Germany. The story of the ordeal that the Jews in Europe endured includes the beginning of discrimination, the legislation passed against them, the concentration camps, the liberation of the camps, and the war criminals trial held in Nuremberg. All of these parts play key roles in trying to understand how this could happen and how it can be prevented from ever happening again."

Abstract
The paper shows how the Gestapo, the secret police of Germany during Hitler's reign, was one of the strongest tools used to control the German people. The paper explains that the Gestapo controlled the media, used a network of spies in order to repress subversives, forced family members to spy on each other and threatened those who would not cooperate, often using physical violence and blackmail. The paper relates further that because the Gestapo was not subject to judicial review and they had the liberty of incarcerating citizens without trial, their powers were limitless.
From the Paper
"The Gestapo, or the Geheime Staatspolizei, first appeared in Berlin during the Weimar Republic. These political police originally served the Prussian government. When the Gestapo was taken over by the Germans, it was already a well-established organizational and bureaucratic mechanism, but from 1934 to 1939 the Gestapo expanded exponentially. When Hitler became the German chancellor in 1933, he named Hermann Goring the interior minister of Prussia, making Goring the head of the Prussian Political police. In the early days, Goring was in control of the Gestapo."
