Overview In contrast to the proud, patriotic and celebratory mood with which Germany entered the First World War in 1914, it was a shocked and defeated Germany in 1918 that then bitterly resented its treatment by the victorious allies with the Treaty of Versailles. A new, democratic Weimar Germany was burdened with severe political and economic dislocation and by 1923 faced the humiliating invasion by the French of its industrial centre of the Ruhr. However, a mixture of Stresemann’s work and more favourable international conditions allowed Weimar Germany to undergo a period known as ‘the Golden Years’ until the Wall Street Crash in 1929 had significant economic and thus political consequences for Weimar Germany. Immediately at the end of the First World War, the right wing of German politics were especially resentful at Germany’s defeat, at the peace treaty and at the new democratic style of government. Hitler had become leader of the National Socialist Workers’ Party. After having attempted coming to power by means of force in Munich in November 1923, Hitler determined to achieve power by democratic means. Once power had been achieved, democratic government could then be abandoned.

  • The NSDAP and the German Working Class, 1925-1933
    8 The NSDAP and the German Working Class, 1925-1933 PETER D. STACHURA Throughout the pre-1933 period, the National Socialist party (NSDAP) projected an image of being a broadly-based Volksbewegung whose aim was to restore the fortunes of all Germans regardless of status or class. The party's ideological and propagandistic appeal was modelled to attract to the swastika as many sections of \~eimar society as possible. This approach made sense, after all, if the NSDAP were to exoand its electoral constituency to the point where it could establish a popular mandate for power. Following the unsuccessful 11unich putsch in 1923, Hitler renounced violent, revolutionary tactics in favor of a long-term parliamentary strategy that would allow him to assume governmental responsibility within the letter of the law. In the end, of course, the NSDAP did win power legally even if it constantly violated the spirit of the law. While failing to attain an overall majority in Reichstag elections in July and November 1932, the NSDAP, despite showing incipient signs of having passed its peak, was ultimately brought into the government, thanks to the last-minute interventionist power politics of industrial and agrarian elitist groups representing propertied, nationalist, and Protestant Germany.l Contrary to Joseph Goebbels's assertion in early 1933 that the !1achtergreifung signified "a revolution of a workers' movement,"2 empirical historical inquiry has established that by 1933 the NSDAP drew its electoral support overwhelmingly from the small­ town and rural Protestant Mittelstand, comprising men and women in roughly equal numbers, in northern, central, and eastern Germany.3 Although by 1930-31 the lower 11ittelstand, particularly of the "old" or traditional type, predominated among the party's voters and members, the upper Hittelstand were beginning to flock into the ranks in ever-increasing numbers in 1932,4 thus making the NSDAP more of a catch-all movement of middle-class protest, a movement of bourgeois integration.
