Click here to show/hide summary
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."

Abstract This paper examines the life of Adolf Hitler through his childhood, service in World War I, and the formation of the Nazi Party in Germany. It looks at his rise to power over the years against the backdrop of the changing political scene in Germany.
From the Paper "The age-old view of the Jewish people as "the Christ-killers" served as a suitable backdrop in which to place the blame for a wide variety of social ills now gripping the nation. Whether by their nature, or some cruel trick of fate, the Jewish community in Germany had largely secured their assets in durable items such as real estate, artwork, and precious stones. Thus, as the economy crashed around them, the Jewish minority remained financially secure. Resentment among Germans grew strong as they watched their children grow weak with starvation while the Jewish community thrived."

Hitler's Rise to Power, 2006. A look at the conditions in pre-WWII Germany and how those conditions contributed to the rise of Adolf Hitler. 2,363 words (approx. 9.5 pages), 3 sources, MLA, $ 72.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract This paper explains how Adolf Hitler was able to take advantage of inherent weaknesses in the Weimar Republic and the burdens created for Germany by the Treaty of Versailles to eventually wrest the German presidency away from Paul von Hindenburg. The paper also describes how Hitler used propaganda and efficient organizational methods to generate support for his leadership as well as how he was able to use the worldwide depression of the times to further advance his goals.
From the Paper "The Weimar Republic had inherent weaknesses, which combined with economic strife and early political challenges to create a high level of instability. This allowed radical political groups to rise to prominence and Hitler's forceful Nazi Party was especially able in making an impact by exploiting the Republic's weaknesses. At the end of World War I Germany underwent a rapid political restructuring. Following this transition from authoritarian monarchy to democratic republic, Weimar Germany immediately began to display weaknesses that it could never fix. Clouds surround the way democracy was instituted, there were flaws in the constitutional and party system, and the republic had difficulty in gaining acceptance for many reasons."

Hitler?s Rise to Power, 2004. A literature review of Adolf Hitler's rise to power in Germany. 3,413 words (approx. 13.7 pages), 7 sources, MLA, $ 96.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract This paper looks at the reasons behind Hitler?s rise to power through the analysis of three books: M. H. Kater?s "The Nazi Party", W. S. Allen?s "The Nazi Seizure of Power"m and T. Childers?s "The Nazi Voter". It takes the opinions in these books as a starting point and then develops the author's opinion as to why Hitler came to power. It shows how the reasons behind Hitler?s and the German?s Socialist Party's (NSDAP) rise to power are many and complex, all involving exploitation of the effects of the Depression on the ?ordinary people? and the totalitarian rule with which Hitler took over Germany and held Germany throughout World War II.
From the Paper "Through Childers? book, The Nazi Voter (another in-depth statistical treatment of NSDAP party membership), we see that pre-1932, Hitler?s NSDAP garnered support from a wide cross-section of German society, from all social levels, and from all sectors of the workforce, but particularly small businessmen, who were suffering the effects of the Depression. He highlights the fact that the wide-ranging support did not include people from the working classes (who preferred communism), but did include people from those sectors of society that were against modernization, and also women, who were in agreement with the Nazi-led denunciation of emancipation. He goes on to say that the Nazi?s anti-modernist stance was a fundamental rejection of the socio-political implications of modernization, and as such, this was taken to heart by many members of German society who lived in fear of losing their jobs."

Hitler's Rise to Power, 2002. Examines factors in Adolph Hitler's life and personality that contributed to his rise to power as Germany's dictator. 3,414 words (approx. 13.7 pages), 4 sources, MLA, $ 96.95 »

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."

Hitler's Rise to Power, 2007. This paper examines the rise to power by Adolf Hitler and the Nazi party in Germany. 2,265 words (approx. 9.1 pages), 4 sources, MLA, $ 70.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract This paper examines Hitler's rise to power from his failed Beer Hall Putsch in 1923 through the beginning of World War Two. The paper examines the political and social structures that made this possible and discusses how a madman inspires millions to commit atrocities beyond the imagination. The paper also looks at how a convicted traitor transitions into the most powerful person in a nation and then explains that, through propaganda, Hitler was able to manipulate a war weary German people into supporting his efforts. The writer notes that those who opposed him disappeared and maintains that by instilling loyalty to the state through fear and patriotic propaganda, Hitler was able to achieve a position of power that allowed him to commit atrocities.
From the Paper "Over six million Jews perished during Hitler's reign. Millions more were displaced. Atrocities that defy ones belief in humanity became commonplace. Many people question how a madman, such as Adolf Hitler, was able to take power, why millions were drawn to him, and how the world looked on as the Nazi Party swept into power. Against significant odds, Adolf Hitler went from a convicted traitor to leader of a nation; a man whose actions would leave an indelible mark on history for all time. Adolf Hitler's rise to power defies the powers of logic for many people today. How is it possible that a man was capable of inspiring so many atrocities? The answer lies in a combination of world events, political intrigue, and clever moves designed to strip German citizens of their liberties and remove opposition. It is possible to trace the Nazification of Germany through an analysis of the 1930s."

The Rise of German Nazism, 2002. Examines factors which led to Hitler's rise to power prior to 1933. 2,025 words (approx. 8.1 pages), 5 sources, $ 75.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract This paper will argue that while many factors contributed to the rise of National Socialism in the years prior to 1933, the key reason for its rise and eventual political domination of Germany lies in the dark, charismatic genius - and anti-Semitic ideology - of one man: Adolf Hitler.

"The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich", 2006. This paper analyzes Adolf Hitler's monumental impact during WWII as depicted in "The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich" written by William L. Shirer. 1,670 words (approx. 6.7 pages), 1 source, MLA, $ 54.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract The writer of this paper asks and answers the question about WWII, Hitler and the Nazis: Could it all have been prevented? According to William L. Shirer's book "The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich" the author states that it was Hitler and no one else who brought both triumph and tragedy to the German people and the rest of the free world. This informative paper contains detailed historical facts of how the war began and the major characters and countries involved.
From the Paper "Shirer sees 1942 as a real turning point against Germany. Of course, the U.S. declared war against Germany after Pearl Harbor, but American troops would not be a major factor until General Montgomery defeated Rommel's panzer divisions at El Alamein in the desert of Egypt. Slowly but surely, Allied forces forced the German north Afrika Korps back until they had to abandon all of their positions. Next, would come the American invasion of Sicily, and then, Italy. Of course, all this time, Allied bombers were blasting targets in Germany. But, the Germans had one final weapon- V-1 and V-2 rockets which did a lot of damage in Britain. Again, it is important to remember that this is a book about the Rise and Fall of the Third Reich, not a moment-to-moment description of the war itself."

Analysis of Shirer's "The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich"
From the Paper "With an already developed hatred for the Jews and belief that the Germans were the superior race, Hitler, in the midst of the World War I, had strengthened his political ideology. Disillusioned by the loss of the Germans in the war, Hitler began boldly expressing his views against anti-Semitism. As a young soldier, he was given the opportunity to share with his fellow soldiers his political thinking and beliefs as he was appointed as an educational officer for the German Army. Shirer also disclosed how Hitler's investigation of the German Workers' Party led to his becoming a member of the said party, then eventually conjoined this part with that of the National Socialism."

The Rise of Liberalism, Socialism and Nationalism in Europe, 2006. The writer discusses the rise of the welfare state in Britain, communism in Russia and fascism in Germany. 1,918 words (approx. 7.7 pages), 3 sources, MLA, $ 61.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract The writer shows how liberalism in Britain led to the establishment of a welfare state in the next century, and how in Russia, the idea of socialism proposed by Karl Marx developed into the communism of the 20th century. The writer explains how, in Germany, Johann von Gerder encouraged all the states to recognize, absorb and develop their mutual culture, immersing themselves in the country's language, mythology and literature in order to strengthen national pride, and how this sense of nationalism was heightened after World War I to become the fascism propounded by Adolf Hitler in the period immediately before World War II. In conclusion, the paper shows how these developments led to the aggression that inevitably led to World War II.

From the Paper "European nations in the early 1900s entered into a new age of imperialism, and built up their armies in accordance with their imperialistic goals. Mobilization led to antagonism between the nations, and Germany responded by being the first to attack its neighbor, Russia. The policies of the Welfare State were already firmly entrenched in Britain by the time of the First World War, and the government responded to the pressure to provide for its soldiers and their families by increasing its pensions and entitlements. The war itself was an immense drain on England's finances. Defense expenditures rose from 91 million pounds in 1913 to 1.956 billion in 1918. The enormous casualties of the war added an even bigger burden to the medical expenses and pensions the government was obliged to pay. Britain sold its vast amount of securities to help pay their debt, but in October 1916, the British Chancellor of the Exchequer warned that in less than a year, the President of the "American Republic" would be in a position to dictate terms.
"When the Great Depression hit in the 1930s, it hit an already weakened Britain, and the burden of unemployment insurance was deeply felt. What had started out to be an attempt at ending oppression by the wealthy classes in the 19th century, had become an outright attempt to redistribute the wealth by the early 20th century. Britain supported a massive bureaucracy in order to accommodate the welfare system, and the country was barely able to keep up with its obligations. A disproportionate amount of funds was going into the society with not enough being brought back into it by the recipients of social programs."

The French Revolution, The American Civil War and the Rise of the Nazi Regime, 2002. A comparative paper showing the history of all three of these monumental events and how they affected the world. 3,000 words (approx. 12.0 pages), 5 sources, APA, $ 88.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract The paper follows the events leading up to and during the course of the French Revolution, the American Civil War and Hitler's Nazi Party's rise to power. The paper shows how, in all three cases, the events were inevitable and at times, like in the case of Hitler's "Mein Kampf", even predicted long before they actually happened.
From the Paper "The events preceding the French Revolution, the American Civil War, and the Nazis' rise to power were prophetic. As stated earlier, the Founding Fathers who wrote the U.S. Constitution knew that the issue of slavery would become a problem in future generations, yet the wording within the Constitution wasn't replaced at the time. King Louis XVI, an ineffective leader consumed by his own luxurious lifestyle, learned too late that the people of his country had the right to equality, to work, and to something as simple as bread. Adolf Hitler detailed his political and military strategies in his book, Mein Kampf, written in the early 1920s while serving time in prison. His book was considered the Bible of the Nazis, yet nothing was done to stop the genocide of the Jewish people."

Adolf Hitler, 2002. This paper discusses Adolf Hitler's rise to power and his fall during World War II. 1,760 words (approx. 7.0 pages), 3 sources, MLA, $ 56.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
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.

From the Paper "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."

The Right Wing in 1930s Germany, 2000. This is a study of how German nationalism and economic disaster ultimately led to the rise of Hitler. 1,665 words (approx. 6.7 pages), 4 sources, MLA, $ 54.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract This essay examines the circumstances behind Hitler's rise to power. It studies the rise of German nationalism and anti-Semitism, the economic ruin faced after WWI, the bitter way in which Germans held their surrender in WWI, and the unsuitability of the ultra-democratic Weimar Republic in facing these problems.
From the Paper "Although Hitler never won ?a full majority in a free election? , the Nazis had secured a large share of the electorate by the beginning of the 1930s. This happened despite widespread violence on the part of the SA, anti-Semitic and anti-Slav policies, and being the most right wing political party in Germany. Social and economic problems were blamed on party politics and inept politicians; extremists offered, if little else, strength and political efficiency. "
