What factors contributed to the rise of dictators in the period between World War I and War War II.?

Answer 1

The Treaty of Versailles, we made Germany pay for the damage done during World War I, which hurt their economy and their national pride was hurt by losing the war. This made the people more easily seduced by Hitler and his promise to make Germany great again.

As far as Italy goes, I don't know anything about how Mussolini rose to power.

Answer 2

It sounds like your talking about a Just War where there are many rules to follow in order for the war to be considered Just or Unjust. These are: A just war can only be waged as a last resort. All non-violent options must have been considered and deemed ineffective. A war is just only if it is waged by a legitimate authority. Therefore orders must be from a government or whatever that country is ruled by. A just war can only be fought to redress a wrong suffered. Further, a just war can only be fought with "right" intentions: the only permissible objective of a just war is to redress the injury. A war can only be just if it is fought with a reasonable chance of success. Deaths and injury incurred in a hopeless cause are not morally justifiable. The ultimate goal of a just war is to re-establish peace. More specifically, the peace established after the war must be preferable to the peace that would have prevailed if the war had not been fought. The violence used in the war must be proportional to the injury suffered. States are prohibited from using force not necessary to attain the limited objective of addressing the injury suffered. The weapons used in war must discriminate between combatants and non-combatants. Civilians are never permissible targets of war, and every effort must be taken to avoid killing civilians. The deaths of civilians are justified only if they are unavoidable victims of a deliberate attack on a military target.

Answer 3

My Grandparents came from Germany in the late '20's. They met in the USA after they both came. She came legally because she had family over here. Grandpa stowed away and lived here several years before Grandma made him go back and come the legal way before they married.

But their reasons for leaving were the same. There were no jobs because the Jewish population had owned most everything and if you were not Jewish you could not get a job. I think my grandparents were racist as far as the Jewish population as a whole, but would not have a problem with an individual (if that makes sense)

This is how some I am guessing would be resentful of the Jewish pop over in Germany and perhaps not ready to put a stop to the unjust until it was too late.

I do know that one of my Great Grandfather was a socialist and was put into jail a couple of times because of it and his nephew was a Nazi, and knew not to speak ill of Hitler in front of even his own nephew

Answer 4

The Great Depression of the late 20's and early to mid-30s, the rise of nationalism, the readiness of the masses to hear messianistic messages that would pull them out of the Depression..all contributed to the rise of dictators. The spirit of nationalism brought pride and arrogance to their lives...a giddy feeling really.
