Under the Nazi regime in Germany those who did not fit the Aryan ideal experienced enormous amounts of mistreatment and injustice, for they were were stripped of their rights, harshly overpowered as a result of Hitler’s beliefs and treated unfairly within concentration camps. Due to Hitler’s beliefs, those under the NAZI regime in Germany, who did not fit the Aryan ideal, experienced many forms of injustice as Hitler attempted to create a fully ‘pure’ society. The NAZI regime, also restricted many peoples rights, specifically those who did not fit the Aryan ideal and other people who were considered ‘social outsiders.’ In addition, many people who did not fit the Aryan ideal were forced into concentration camps and experienced enormous injustice as a result of the NAZI regime in Germany. The aforementioned topics all had many significant impacts on the Aryan race, in particular Hitler’s beliefs which lead to many different forms of injustice.
As a result of Hitler’s beliefs, those under the NAZI regime in Germany, who did not fit the Aryan ideal, experienced many forms of injustice which had drastic effects on both the physical and mental state of the population, in addition to the social aspects of the country. During this time period, Hitler’s main beliefs were centered towards achieving racial ‘purity’ and the superiority of the Aryan race. In order to fulfil this goal Hitler spread his beliefs to his army and the public through the use of posters, the media, publicity
After Germany lost World War I, it was in a national state of humiliation. Their economy was in the drain, and they had their hands full paying for the reparations from the war. Then a man named Adolf Hitler rose to the position of Chancellor and realized his potential to inspire people to follow. Hitler promised the people of Germany a new age; an age of prosperity with the country back as a superpower in Europe. Hitler had a vision, and this vision was that not only the country be dominant in a political sense, but that his ‘perfect race’, the ‘Aryans,’ would be dominant in a cultural sense. His steps to achieving his goal came in the form of the Holocaust. The most well known victims of the Holocaust were of course, the Jews.
One of Hitler’s many ambitions for Germany was to achieve total Aryan supremacy. Hitler wanted to make all Germans perfect physical specimens. All of them tall and strong with blue eyes and blond hair though he himself was short, with brown eyes and hair. Hitler claimed that the Germans were the purest Aryans and therefore superior to all other peoples. Hitler made sure that all Germans knew this, he told the German people what they wanted to hear, that they were in fact the master race and that they were superior to any other persons. Although many were opposed to Hitler’s idea of Aryan supremacy the German people supported him enthusiastically regardless.
As World War II drew closer and countries began to feel the drums of war grow louder a man by the name of Adolf Hitler, leader of the Nazi party had already taken control of Germany’s government and was set on taking over the world, for a thousand year reign. Some of Hitler’s beliefs consisted of him thinking that the Germans should have more “living space” and that only the people with German blood or Aryan blood should inhabit Germany. Adolf wanted to rid Germany of the mentally and physically disable, because they were seen as weak and brought shame on his “perfect race.” Not only that,
On January 30th 1933 Adolf Hitler became chancellor of Germany, Jews in Europe were gradually subjected to stricter persecution. The Holocaust started because a biological racism and anti-Semitism was developed by the Nazis, the Jewish culture were seen as: Deformed beings, a specific problem to society, a problem that needed to be solved for survival of the nation. Hitler believed and made to believe that the population of Germany should be lead entirely by the Aryan race. The typical Aryan being: Blonde, blue eyes, and slightly pale skin. The Nazis believed that the Aryans had the purest blood out of anyone on Earth and believed that non-Aryans were impure and even “evil”. Hitler believed that the Aryan dominance was being threatened by the Jewish people, there was a league table of all races, Aryans and Jews were at the top. How could Hitler deal with such a competitor? How could he start a race with no real threat but only true fear? Eliminate the obstacle. The wall blocking the Nazis from loyalty, strength, superiority.
Amid World War II, Adolf Hitler was mistreating minorities in Europe. His principle target were the Jews. Keeping in mind the end goal to fulfill this, Hitler utilized various frameworks of oppression, including purposeful publicity, the migration of individuals to ghettos, and the formation of laws to take away people groups' rights. On the other hand, a standout amongst the best frameworks that was utilized during the Holocaust was the utilization of innovation to successfully eliminate the minorities that were, as he would see it, the issue.
Social conflict is one of the most important contributors to genocide, but it is strengthened when dehumanization has preluded the social conflict. For instance, after World War I, German military could not confess that it was their fault for their loss—so the German people began to suspect that the betrayal had come from within Germany (Bergen, 2007). Hitler slowly began conforming the German people to understand their need for racial purity. He defined handicapped people as those whose lives were unworthy of living, and he eventually equated homosexuals, Gypsies, Jews, and communists to “handicapped” (Bergen, 2007). Once these different groups of people had been dehumanized, then social conflict arose and Germans began to understand their need for a purely Aryan race.
As time progressed, the severity of cultural conflict in correlation to civil rights fluctuated, but became prominent during the 1930s-1940s when World War II came as well as the Holocaust. The Holocaust plays a crucial role in how being of a different race and culture can cost people their livelihoods and freedom. Even before Adolf Hitler came into power, he was an advocate of eliminating Jews’ rights and removing them from German soil (Fisher, 1998, p. 2). This indicates that Hitler saw Jewish people not as humans, but as a burden to Germany and its people. As a result, him and the Nazi party concocted the Final Solution in order to eradicate the Jewish population in Germany; however, Hitler needed to convince parts of the German society
Hitler informs the Germans that they belong to a superior race, which is meant to rule the world, better known as the Aryan race. “Hitler had already started his political career in 1919, and had been influenced by this kind of Pan-German thinking” (Noakes, 2010). The Great Depression causes the unemployment rate to rise; thousands of desperate people began to trust Adolf Hitler (Talalay Dardashti, Schelly (20 August 2006).
The mass killings and racial repression brought on by the Nazi regime is abhorrent. The Nazi regime singled out the Jewish community to reconcile the belief that Germany had been betrayed in World War I. Once the Jewish community had been made the victim, the system of overlapping agencies pushed institutions to the extreme as they competed for Hitler’s attention. The effect of competing to earn consideration created systemic brutality towards the Jewish people in Germany. From the creation of concentration camps and into the concentration camps created a “gray zone” within where prisoners competed for special treatment by displaying their harshness towards their own compatriots. The Nazi system of racial repression and mass murder of the Jewish population in Germany originated in Adolf Hitler’s personal shortcomings as a failed artist and as a scapegoat for Germany’s defeat in World War. The system was operated by sycophants acting obsequiously to Hitler in hopes of raising their standing with Hitler to further their career.
Adolf Hitler’s rise to power in 1933 and his sudden control over Germany sparked a new age of reform within the new “Nazi-state” (Hunt 848). As Nazism became a major aspect of everyday life in Germany, Hitler plotted against his enemies and those he blamed for Germany’s defeat in World War I: the Jewish race. In his biography, Mein Kampf, Hitler discusses the artistic, social, and technological superiority of Germany (“Aryans”), why he believes the Aryans are the ultimate dominant human race, and he makes many anti-Semitic remarks against the Jews. (Lualdi 224). In 1935, the “Nuremberg Laws” were enacted to deny Jewish Germans of their citizenship; this ultimately led Hitler to carry out his “Final Solution,” in which he hoped to fully
When the Nazis came to power, they intended to eliminate Jews and Gypsy population. Carrying out these plans to purify the German blood, they realized that in order for the German blood to remain pure, they had to restrict or kill other non-Aryans, which included the Afro-Germans, foreign workers, and habitual criminals. The plight of Afro-Germans and habitual criminals greatly differed from that of foreign workers, but in order to understand the pain these minorities tolerated it is necessary to trace back to how Hitler and the Nazis replaced the Weimar Republic. It is also important to take into considerations that the war heavily impacted the fate of these minorities.
During the 1930’s, Germany was in an economic depression. There was no money, no jobs, and no hope. One man knew exactly who they needed to blame. Adolf Hitler determined that the Jewish people in Germany were responsible for the hardships faced, and he was going to make everyone agree with him. He spoke to the people of Germany, voiced their fears and longings, made them believe in him and every word he said. Hitler told the Aryan people that they were the superior race, and that they were above all others. He succeeded in denouncing the Jews, but this wasn’t
Many know Adolf Hitler as Hitler. Some consider him an honerableman with great intentions for the world, but most consider him a selfish, controlling man with too much power. He was leader of the large Nazi Party and blamed the Germany’s economic problems on the minorities: mainly the Jews. If economic problems were blamed on anyone else, history would have completely changed. One man 's decision to punish a whole race led to war, cruelty, despair, and death. Religion is one of the largest categories in our society, and Jewish people are people who believe certain things based on their religious traditions. Adolf began to build an “Aryan master race,” whose people had to be Caucasian, have blue eyes, and have blonde hair. Hitler wanted the master race to rule the world and one day take over the Jews and minority groups by attacking them.
From his service in the military to how he took over power in the whole of Germany was a scary sight in the books of history, but was his thrive to reign in power obstructed by the Jews? Did the Jews ever plan to overthrow him? Then why all his retaliation towards people of this religion. What are the specific basis and ideas he had that were accompanied by years and years of bloodsheds and slave labor of millions of Jews in Europe? In this paper, I look at the basis and core of Hitler’s fantasized ideology towards the Jews.
“Considering his origins and his early life, it would be difficult to imagine a more unlikely figure to succeed to the mantle of Bismark, the Hohenzollern emperors and President Hindenburg than this singular Austrian of peasant stock who was born at half past six in the evening of April 20, 1889 in the Gasthof zum Pommer, a modest inn in the town of Braunau am Inn, across the border from Bavaria.” (William L. Shirer 14) Hitler was a corrupted man by having a terrible childhood. He did not have any role model, such as a father and mother. He only had a dreams to become things but he was not allowed to be anything. Several factors in Hitler's life may have contributed to him becoming an evil dictator. He was not allowed to become an artist, he wanted to be a priest but could not, and he had a bad relationship with his father.
