How did the Nazis gain power?

Answer 1

The time was right, there was upheavel and animosity towards the Jews already however it the was cultivated by a little Austrian boy, by the name of Hitler.

Freedoms were gradually being taken away, youth groups would report on their parents, no one was safe. If a German spoke against Hitler they would join the Germans in a Nazi camp.

That is why it is so important to preserve our freedoms and fight for them; including the freedom of religion. Use your freedoms and this to will preserve them.

Good question.

Answer 2

The Nazis came to power using very complex methods of propaganda, most of shich can be found in mdern advertising today. They also preyed on the fears coming out of WWI, the Versailles Treaty, and the Great Depression. By creating a zeitgeist based on countless twisted versions of Teutonic history and laden with a heavy dose of fear, the Nazis blinded millions to their message. An apotheosis of Hitler was created as the Nazis sought to supplant Christian ideals with their own. George L. Mosse has done the most definitive work on the propaganda of the Nazis.

Answer 3

The Nazi Party,also called the National Socialist German Workers' Party, was a political entity long before Hitler ever came on the scene. It was a political entity that began in 1920 and ended in 1945.
If you are asking how Hitler came into power, here is the story...The party's leader, Adolf Hitler, was appointed chancellor of Germany by president Paul von Hindenburg in 1933. After Hindenburg's death Hitler established an autocratic regime he called the Third Reich, under which the party gained almost unlimited power. A decisive step in the Nazi seizure of power was the so called "Enabling Act", which granted the cabinet - and therefore Hitler - legislative powers. Membership of the Hitler Youth was made compulsory for German teenagers, and served as a conveyor belt to party membership. Hitler maintained a deliberate policy of preventing any of his underlings accumulating too much power, and of dividing responsibility among state and party bureaucracies, many of which had overlapping functions. Hitler’s rule was highly personalised, and the power of his subordinates depended on Hitler’s favour and their success in interpreting his desires. Hitler was a gifted orator...and as history will bear out, a gifted orator is able to sway public opinion and generate intense devotion. Hitler used the deafeat of Germany in WW I, the resulting depression, weakness among the party members, along with his own personal bias, to sway a country. He told them what they wanted to hear, and they fanatically believed him.

"By 1945 the Nazi Party and the Nazi state were no longer capable of separation. When the German armies surrendered to the Allies in May 1945 and the German state ceased to exist, the Nazi Party, despite its 8.5 million nominal members and its nationwide organisational structure, also ceased to exist. Its most fanatical members either killed themselves, fled Germany or were arrested. The rank-and-file burned their party cards and sought to blend back into German society as quickly as possible. By the end of the war Nazism had been reduced to little more than loyalty to the person of Adolf Hitler, and his death released most Nazis from their oaths and any desire to keep the party alive."

The "National Socialist German Workers' Party" began in Germany in the 1920's. In 1933, the German president, Paul von Hindenburg, appointed Adolf Hitler, the Nazi party's leader, to the position of Chancellor. After President Hindenburg died, Hitler established his regime which he called the "Third Reich." In a nutshell, it all went downhill from there. Wikipedia has a good article on the Nazi party at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nazi_Party . Hope this helps.

Answer 5

there is truth in a lot of what has been said but your question is
a simple one so i will try to give you a simple answer. the backlash of world war I left Germany in economic upheaval. inflation was rampant and people were afraid. it took a wheelbarrow full of money to buy a loaf of bread. Hitler stepped up at the right time and said the right things to calm the overall fear. people fear "fear" and this was a nation that had lived in that class system for centuries. you are not a German citizen by being born there. you can only be by blood line. thanks.
