The Reasons For Adolf Hitler 's Rise Of Power As The Chancellor Of Germany

especially noted when he earned the First Class Iron Cross, the highest military honor a German

Hitler’s assumption of power on the 30th of January 1933 was seemingly due to the mass popularity of the Nazi party. However it was far off achieving the 50% majority it needed to put Hitler automatically in power. As well as popularity, backstairs intrigue and the short-sightedness of those in power enabled Hitler to become Chancellor. The weaknesses of Germany’s political leadership were fundamental to Hitler’s success. In some senses the popularity of the party only provided an opening, available for exploitation.

After Germany’s humiliating defeat in World War I, Germans had little faith in their government, and in the early 1930s following the stock market crash in New York, Germany was economically struggling . Millions of people were out of work due to the world wide catastrophe making it an opportune time for Hitler and the Nazis to rise into power. Hitler, who was a powerful and spellbinding speaker, attracted Germans desperate for change. He promised to make Germany a better country and promised the disenchanted, a better life. Nazis appealed especially to the youth, unemployed, and members of the lower to middle class. Hitler’s rise to power seemed instantaneous. Before the economic depression, Nazis were virtually unknown, winning less than 3 percent of the vote to the Reichstag, which was the German Parliament. However, in the 1924 elections, the Nazis won a whopping 33 percent of the votes which was more than any other party. In January of 1933, Hitler was appointed Chancellor, the head of German Government . The Germans were convinced that they had found a savior for the Nation. The timing of his rise made it very easy for Hitler to gain power in a democratic government because people were hopeless and wanted a fast solution to the deficit. He promised things like a stronger economy, prosperity, and anything that they desired . He focused on first getting noticed and then grew from there. He didn’t say anything but what the people wanted to hear. Getting the people of Germany to trust him was how he started to gain so much control. Unfortunately, Hitler’s charm and persuasion was not the sole reason why Hitler gained so much power in a democratic

Due to the failure of the Weimar Republic and general public dissatisfaction arising from poor economic conditions exacerbated by the Treaty of Versailles, coupled with the 1929 Wall Street Crash, German citizens were understandably desperate for change. Until this point in time the Nazi party, and Hitler, had been essentially unpopular. However, the economic situation ensured Hitler’s increasing popularity as the people looked toward more extreme but non-communist ideals. The initial consolidation of Nazi power in 1933 arose from key events such as the support of the Nationalist Party with the Nazis to form a coalition government, implementation of the Enabling

One of the main factors in Hitler’s rise to power was the Economic Depression of 1929. After the Wall Street crash, the U.S. called in its loans to Germany thus increasing both poverty and unemployment levels. The Weimar government did not understand how to reverse the situation so the general public became angry and lost confidence in the relatively new democratic system. During a depression, political trends become extremist and so the Nazis flourished; Hitler offered both a scapegoat and himself as a strong leader to look up to. The depression gave Hitler the edge he needed to gain ninety-five[1] seats in the Reichstag and ultimately progress from the leader of a minority party to the Dictator of the Third Reich.

Another key element for Hitler’s gain of excessive power was the Great Depression. “Due to America 's large trade industries, the depression quickly spread all over the world. This put Germany into a dire state as unemployment rocketed” (The Truth About Hitler’s Rise To Power, n.d). With the rise of unemployment Hitler was able to gain more votes through promising more employment opportunities for Germany. “The depression was important as Hitler could prey on these people, and these people came, not in thousands, but millions” (The Truth About Hitler’s Rise To Power, n.d). The depression was key element in Hitler’s rise to power. The Northstar Report says that, “Without the great depression…Hitler wouldn 't have got anywhere near to achieving the role of chancellor” (The Truth About Hitler’s Rise To Power, n.d). But with the Great

Hitler is known to be one of the most notorious world leaders of the 20th century. Hitler is responsible for starting World War II and the horrific genocide of the Holocaust. His persuasive form of speaking is what caused the German people to believe his deceiving lies on his rise to power. His childhood experiences and influences played a big role in his hatred towards foreigners and Jews, which caused him to be anti- Semite. Once in power he wanted to conquer the world and make it an Arian only population.

Even though Germany was left in a period of struggle and economic weakness after WW1, Adolf Hitler would take a stand by creating a party that would help refine the structure of the economy. This party, when abbreviated, was called Nazi, would also create harsh laws and unrelentless punishment. Due to the Nazi party’s quick growth, there was an immediate impact on lifestyle and politics for the people of Germany. The long term impact brought forth by the consequences or legacy of the Nazi party included a population decrease and an increase in deaths. To make both of these impacts, Hitler had to overcome many hard challenges.

Nazi leader, Adolf Hitler was one of the most powerful, bloodlust dictators of the 20th century, rising to power in 1933 as chancellor

The rise and subsequent take-over of power in Germany by Hitler and the Nazi Party in the early 1930s was the culmination and continuation not of Enlightenment thought from the 18th and 19th century but the logical conclusion of unstable and cultural conditions that pre-existed in Germany. Hitler’s Nazi Party’s clear manipulation of the weak state of the Weimar Republic through its continued failure economically and socially, plus its undermining of popular support through the signing the Treaty of Versailles all lead to the creation of a Nazi dictatorship under the cult of personality of Hitler. This clear take-over of power and subsequent destruction of any

Not many people know of the reason on how Hitler came to the rise of his power and how he took control of Germany and started the revolution that was World War II. In order for Hitler to gain power, there were events that had occurred which may have impacted as an aide for his rise in power. There was the Treaty of Versailles, which was the treaty that the allies came up with to end World War I. The Munich Beer Hall Putsch was an event to help gain support for Hitler’s group. Hitler gained his recognition of power after Hindenburg’s death on August 2, 1934, so all of the events discussed in this paper are before this time. (1) I will investigate and analyze the failures of these events, which helped lead to that point of when Hitler was known to become the notorious dictator that he is known

When Adolf Hitler's name is spoken, most people will think of genocide and the loss of thousands of lives, but rarely does anyone think of the overwhelming influence he had on the Weimar Republic. Although Hitler’s impact to Germany isn’t a contribution, he still made an impact on Germany and it’s people perpetually. Adolf Hitler is an atrocious man, but he’s also a genius. He convinced thousands of people that he could help them, their families, and their country. People should remember the impact Hitler made on the Weimar Republic, good or bad. Although Hitler ruined many lives of the Weimar Republic, Hitler's strength was demonstrated through his climb to infamousy, manipulation, gift of oratory, and charisma that lead to his position in history.

In the following investigation, the following question will be addressed: In what ways did economic and political issues in Germany between 1922 and 1932 contribute to Hitler's rise to power? The scope of my research will fall between the years of 1922-1932, the start of Hitler’s attempt to run for office. A variety of primary and secondary sources will be used to answer the question. The bitterness caused upon the change of government systems in Germany will be analyzed, along with his childhood that all primarily drove Hitler to run for power. Then, the harsh effects World War I had on Germany along with the Great Depression that followed as a result will also be looked at. Finally, a conclusion will be reached.

The Reasons Hitler Came To Power In 1933, Hitler the leader of the NSDAP (National Socialist German Workers Party) became the Chancellor of Germany which was in crisis at the time. I will try to explore some of the reasons why he progressed in gaining this position. After the Treaty of Versailles, Germanys' government was a coalition of two political parties. The government was part Social Demarcates and part Peoples Parties these governments both were in favor of the Treaty of Versailles and wanted Germany to pay back their reparations.

The Reasons Hitler was Made Chancellor of Germany In Germany in 1933, Hitler's Nazis party was growing extremely popular with the Germans. This posed a problem for the current government, The Weimar republic who were losing popularity. Hitler promised things that the German people needed: Hitler offered a strong leadership, like that of the Kaiser, older Germans who were alive during the reign of the Kaiser, warmed to this type of ruling. Hitler promised the cancellation of the treaty of Versailles, which was still a subject which angered many people; many still held the signing of the treaty against the Weimar.
