Group Psychology In Nazi Germany

Hitler was seen as a savior to many Germans, hoping Germany would be saved from its severely depressed condition following World War I. Hitler used his power to create laws in order to exclude and dismiss Jews from everyday affairs. Hitler was an excellent writer and public speaker, further aiding in his success in persuading hopeless individuals to abide by his rule, while ultimately grasping complete power over the German people.

Hitler capitalized on Germany's feeling of having been wronged. The loud projection of his voice and emphasis really invoked a feeling of dedication among the audience, so many believed that he was the solution to the economic and political problems Germany faced. He told them they deserved their land back, that they hadn't deserved the unfair treatment they got, and that he would lead them back to greatness. He told Germans what they wanted to hear. He restored the spirits of many Germans were were depressed and angry from WW1 and the Treaty of Versailles. Hitler promised to improve the economy and make Germany just as powerful, if not more, as it used to be. This appealed to many Germans because they were suffering greatly and wanted out. The Germans hated the Jews and Hitler promised to get rid of them because they were blamed for losing WW1. His public speakings made his followers increase in numbers and the wealthy gave money and supported Hitler to run his propaganda and election campaigns. He promises Germany a better future by overturning the Treaty of

Hitler was in many ways a great leader and his influence on the German people was immense; he used his motivational and powerful speaking abilities to gain support and popularity. Hitler knew how to appeal to people's baser instincts and made use of their fears and insecurities. He could do that,

Hitler wanted to eradicate the jews. Hitler had an idea of the perfect race, he called them the aryan race. After he had power over Germany he told Germans the reason for their loss of world war I was not the peoples fault, but it was the jews. This changed how families and friends treated each other, by strengthening and breaking relationship. Hitler was a soldier of World War 1 and came into power after the loss of World War 1.

Germany’s defeat during World War 1 left the country with unstable government and uncertain people. Adolf Hitler was a man with confidence, charisma, and the ability to make friends and influence people. Hitler tried to establish a sense of community in the recovery and targeted young people, the unemployed, and members of the lower middle class. Hitler’s ability to gain followers and rise to power was a positive thing for Germany until he began using that power to convince others to take part in the Holocaust. Although Hitler was influential in the Holocaust, his intentions were to make Germany a better, brighter place. Hitler gained followers by spreading a message of hope in a positive way, substantially helped the German people out of an

The jury system in America proved to be successful over the last couple of centuries. This is because the citizens of America form the jury, which in return provides a system that is fair. The “jury of our peers” needs to be upheld because it is the most effective way of upholding justice in the country. When random people are chosen to take part in the jury system and decide if a person is guilty or not, it gives unbiased and right fair judgment for the defendant. A “jury of peers” is the most successful way that justice can be decided unbiasedly, with protection for the defendant, and also provide citizens with a sense of duty to their government.

Adolf Hitler wanted German nationalism and he would do anything to get it. That is why he created the nazis and used the young to gain power. To start of with, Hitler created the Nazi Party to gain nationalism. The Nazis agreed with Hitler’s ideology about Nazism. They set off with Hitler to gain control of the government, the religion, the culture, and the working environments.

The tough conditions placed on the German people caused by the loss of World War II left many bitter. The German people became desperate for a solution to solve the economic depression. Hitler used this to his advantage by promising people change in the country. Hitler promised to make the country into a superpower by exterminating the Jewish people (The History Place). Hitler insisted that the Aryan race was descended to become a master race that had the right to govern the world.

From the time Adolf Hitler came into office in 1933, up to the time when Germany surrendered to the Allied forces and Hitler committed suicide in 1945; the future for Germany became strongly invested in the hands of the younger generations. The Hitler Youth was a paramilitary organization formed in 1926. It gave kids excitement, adventure and new heroes to idolize. Hitler admired young kids drive, energy and strong love for Germany. He recognized these qualities and made it part of his plan to control the future world but the real question is why did Adolf Hitler pick children for his future? The education and the lack of schooling in independent thinking that instilled the ideology that brainwashed the Hitler- Jugend and eventually led

Adolf Hitler’s goal was to create a master race. He saw the german people the best race in the world, and that they could cleanse other countries and he called his master race the Aryans. Since Hitler was baptized catholic, he believed that any other people outside the faith were condemned to hell but he took that idea way too far, and he viewed

Humans have been forming groups since the beginning of humanity. We are constantly categorized as a group at the basic level as a species, as an ethnicity, and as a society. It is speculated that our success and evolution as a species is based on our ability to work with each other in collaboration on many levels to ensure our survival. Groups have enabled us to get things done efficiently, whether by combined physical effort, mental effort of generating ideas, or support of others. At its most effective, a group is considered a team. Teams are formed when

Throughout the years, the definition of a fair trial and punishment has changed. In some ways, our Judicial System has gotten better; however, it has also gotten worse in some cases. Our Justice System no longer has a clear understanding of whether or not capital punishment is fair, constitutional, or should be fully utilized. Some people say that the use of capital punishment is unconstitutional, ethically wrong, and extreme. However, others say that Capital punishment would honor the victims and help console grieving families. It would ensure that the perpetrators would never get the chance to commit such horrendous crimes again. It would serve as a deterrent to other people who might commit the same or similar crimes in the future causing less tragedy and heartbreak.

Group size is important because as Asch (1955) found, the larger the group, the bigger the phenomenon of conformity due to social norms. Group cohesiveness makes the group to have greater bonds due to similarity and ability to easily show empathy to each other (Christensen et al., 2004) and social support is noticed to groups with higher levels of cohesiveness and bonding. On the other hand, there are personal factors affecting the type of conformity such as self-awareness (ability to understand own self), self-presentation (try to present ideal self in order to conform), personal control (desire to feel that one has control, as a human right, over particular situations) and gender (gender differences- women are more likely to conform) (Franzoi, 2009).

Leadership and organizational behavior are essential in any organization. In order to achieve goals and high performance, the two must work hand in hand. There are many types of leadership theories following different characteristics in order to create an effective organization. First, the most important item to address is the function of leadership. The next aspect is how organizational behavior relates to leadership. Last, is determining which theory has the characteristics to be particularly effective in both.

When we join a group and wish to remain in it, sooner or later we need to adopt the behaviour patterns of the group. These are the behaviours that the group accept as signs of belonging.
