    Theodore Roosevelt once wisely said, “I believe that the more you know about the past, the better you are prepared for the future.” Perhaps this is why oftentimes authors reflect upon past events in their writing. By putting their own twist upon history, they are teaching us all valuable lessons and educating us about how we can avoid making the same mistakes as we did in the past. J.K Rowling, author of the Harry Potter series, did just this by modeling her character, the evil wizard Lord Voldemort, after Adolf Hitler, perhaps one of the world’s most malevolent dictators.

In regards to economics, while high unemployment rates were decreased due to Hitler’s dictatorship, this was due to the arms boom throughout World War 2 rather than positive economic reform. Overall, Hitler’s autocracy over Nazi Germany had an extremely negative effect on Germany’s…

    'The imperial presidency ' is a term first used in 1973 by Professor Arthur Schlesinger to describe a trend that had developed since the USA had entered the Second World War and subsequently entered the Cold War.
