The Rise Of Nazi Propaganda

Decent Essays
Nazi propaganda had started as soon as the Nazi party took control after the president Paul von Hindenburg. Hitler and Goebbels used their public skills to spread their Anti-Semitism.
Goebbels being the minister of propaganda used the radio stations, newspaper and newsreels to invoke fear of Jews all around Germany. They used the bible as Jews (or as they were known in the bible as
Christ’s murder) to their completely advantage. The Nazi’s propaganda was full of deceit and myths that it eventually made sense to the citizens and combatants in Hitler’s army.

    What do you say now? Where is their famous cruelty?’” These optimists believed that because the German soldiers peacefully “invading” their town showed human decency, that they were safe and meant no harm. The contrast between this point of view and the inevitable downfall of this peaceful German image--due to the beginnings of the mass extermination of the Jewish people--created distrust between the two sides. One reason this image and distrust was supported by many German people and the villages surrounding concentration camps was the widespread use of propaganda.…

    While Fritzche shares the perspective of a Nazi, his argument surrounding the ability for radio to gain followers is supported by Carruthers and largely difficult to dispute. In addition, film in the Third Reich was almost as important as radio for propaganda. Without television, the cinema was the main visual media available to the public. The majority of Germans attended the cinema each week where they would watch feature films and newsreels that were always officially approved. The department of film was in control of the licensing of every film prior to its production and under the authority of Goebbels’ and Hitler the film industry soon became entirely nationalised.…

    Nazi restrictions on women were encouraging the women to quit work, return home, and become mothers for the greater good of the nation. Hitler very much encouraged this because of his old-fashioned views on women, so he made sure he left no room for feminine values in Nazism. With the restrictions on women in the workplace went a major propaganda campaign to promote the concept of the ideal German woman. The Nazis made mothers day in May of 1934 a national celebration. They allowed men to have paid days off and the children were encouraged to make artwork and poems for their mothers.…

    One crucial aspect of the propaganda was the amount which was produced. The Nazi Party produced far more propaganda material than any rival party, and it was unique in that Nazi propaganda techniques were self-regulating. Nazi leaders often were placed in charge of a small town or community and were responsible for recruiting new party members. The incentive to recruit as many as possible was a promotion in the party’s ranks, and this encouraged many local leaders to develop the tactic of altering messages to suit local interests. For example, in Northeim, the Nazi messages of anti-Semitism unsettled people, “and in consequence anti-Semitism was not pushed in propaganda except in a ritualistic way”.…

    Short Response #2 Throughout the rise of Nazism in Germany from 1933 to 1939 social and political laws were being proclaimed that isolated the German race and the Jewish race. Before 1939, many ordinary Germans joined actively in measures of violence and discriminated toward the Jewish’s minority population. Marion Kaplan highlights both virtous and prejudicial elements of German-Jewish relations in Between Dignity and Despair. Kaplan talks about the Nazi’s and Germans themselves who made the abnormal seem normal through social death, as well as to those Germans who were anti-Semitic “could assure themselves that all was “legal” that the Jews deserved to be “brought down a notch” made “normal life amid the subjugation and humiliation of…

    Both often used many forms of propaganda and censoring of the press to manipulate the thoughts of those around them. Hitler’s use of propaganda was most frequently used to degrade the Jewish people, but it was also used to promote the Nazi Party and Hitler himself. This was achieved through the creation of posters, books, music, theater, art and film. All of the propaganda was centered around spreading the Nazi’s anti-Jewish and nationalistic messages and creating an air of acceptance throughout the German people towards these messages, in particular the more extreme beliefs towards the Jewish people. The propaganda depicted the Nazi Party as “restoring order” in Germany and created the illusion that the increasingly harsher measures being taken towards the Jewish population were necessary.…

    When some imagine a world dominated by The National Socialist party of Germany, they imagine a horrible dystopian future split into three tripartite factions by the Berlin-Rome-Tokyo Axis. In this imaginary world, all resistance to the Nazi regime has been quelled and replaced with Hitler 's Dystopia, where all non-aryans have been eradicated or enslaved and The Third Reich now reigns supreme. The reality of an Axis victory is far more complex. While this alternate fascist dominated world would be oppressive to various ethnic and religious groups, political opposition, and the mentally ill, the intricacy of a world where Nazism is paramount, is far more than just a German dominated Earth. The Slavs would be expelled over the Urals into Siberia,…
