SOURCE 14. 6 A young boy in the The Nazisused two major institutions to achieve their aims: the school system § uniform of the Pimpfen (Cubs) and, in particular, youth groups. Furthermore, once youngsters left education^ andyouth movements, theywould join other Naziorganisations, such asRAD and DAF (see page 252), to ensure they did not escape control. The Nazis hoped § that the influence ofsuch an array ofinstitutions would predominate over the traditional, andpossibly hostile, influences ofparents andthe Church. Converting any group in society to a way ofthinking haslong exercised the I minds ofpoliUcians and advertisers. Ifyou can offer exciting activities, people s maybecome more receptive to your broader aims. Thus the Hifler Youth focusei on offering fun and action to theyoung, butthis wasbacked up by intimidation I to persuade members to conform to all the state's demands. TheHitler Youth, created m 1926, expanded rapidly after 1955 with the support ofthe government It organised a variety ofactiviUes, suchas camps, sport andmilitary training. I In 1955 all other youth organisations, except Catholic ones protected by the Concordat (see pages 508-9), were taken over by the HiUer Youth After 1936 al t other youth organisations were banned. Although membership ofthe Hitler Youthbecame'compulsory, many managed to avoid it, especially after they left i school, which many did atfourteen. In addition, some rival groups were setup, I which the authorities failed to suppress. As membership became more s widespread, theHiUer Youth arguably becameless successful, becauseit 2 included less committed youngsters and because there developed an mcreasm; stress on military preparation at the expense of other, more popular, activities.

This 2 longing I sharedwith countless others ofmy contemporaries. Our camp community was a reducedmodel of thatwhich I imaginedour s national community to be. It was a completely successfulmodel. Never before or since have I had the experience of such a good community. Among us were 3 </) peasant girls, students, workers, shop assistants, hairdressers, pupils, clerks, and w soforth. The camp was led by an East Prussian farmer's daughter ... She managed us in such a way that, after we had recognised one another's strengths andweaknesses, sheled us to accept one another as wewere, with everyone endeavouringto be helpful andreliable. Thefact that I had experiencedthis ^ model of a national community intensely created in me an optimism which I held Q on to stubbornly until 1945. Supportedby this experienceI believedin theface of Q all evidence to the contrary that this model could be extended infinitely. Baldurvon Schirach (1907-74): Hitler Youth Leader Schirachwas the son of an aristocratic German father and an American mother. He studied art history and developed anti-semitic and anti-Christianviews. In 1925 he joined the Nazi Party. A great admirer of Hitler, he was appointed head of the German Students' League in 1929 and Nazi Youth Leader in 1931. At the age of 26 he became Youth Leader of the German Reich,a post he held until 1940. Photographsof him were much displayed,and he was presentedto the Germansas a demigod [outstanding,almost divine person], embodyingall thatwas fine and noble in Germanyouth Enemiesmade jokes abouthis effeminate(feminine-like) behaviour. In 1941 he was made Gaufeiter of Vienna, where he -k,, supervised the deportation ofJews, though at the Nuremberg trials in 1945-6 he denied knowledge ofthe'Holocaust.

  • Review Essay: Whence Did German Propaganda Films
    Reason Papers Vol. 38, no. 1 Review Essay: Whence Did German Propaganda Films Derive Their Power? Ian Garden’s The Third Reich’s Celluloid War: Propaganda in Nazi Feature Films, Documentaries, and Television Gary James Jason California State University, Fullerton The history of cinema is an important tool for understanding the use of film for propaganda and indoctrination. Scholars of propaganda should be grateful to Ian Garden, because his The Third Reich’s Celluloid War1 is a comprehensive and insightful history of Nazi propaganda films. He holds that the Nazis understood propaganda to be a powerful weapon and that they wielded it more effectively than did the Allies. He also notes, though, that the Nazi propaganda machine made a great number of mistakes. He seeks to explain the key features of the major German propaganda films, the degree to which they were propagandistic, and how effective they were. Upon reviewing his work, I conclude that although Garden offers thoughtful reflections in many ways, he understates the unique power of Nazi propaganda film. Garden discusses briefly the nature of propaganda, defining it as messaging aimed at persuasion (p. 11). Understood that way, propaganda is a benign concept; however, after persistent misuse over a century by political agents, it now pejoratively means the dispersing of mendacious information. On his view, propaganda doesn’t necessarily involve lying or distorting the truth—though it often does. Propaganda may involve stating facts that are true, but they are so selectively presented that they mislead the audience into the point of view the propagandist is pushing.

The small town of Berchtesgaden, Adolf Hitler’s favourite place in the Bavarian mountains, prepares for the 13th instalment of the popular people’s run “Running for the Fuehrer”. The route through the Thousand-Year Reich – documented by Leni Riefenstahl – includes the most important cities of the Nazi movement, the goal of the run is to demonstrate the German people’s desire to win the war as well as their eternal loyalty to the Fuehrer. And like every year, the winner has the honour of personally wishing Adolf Hitler a happy birthday on the 20th of April in Berlin. But unlike the years before, there are very few volunteers, and most candidates look like they’ll never be able to survive the ordeal. Leni Riefenstahl is less than pleased with the “people material” on offer – until a tall blonde man escorted by policemen catches her eye just as the runners are lining up. Leni is adamant that this picture-perfect Arian, Paul Renner, should take part in the run. What neither she nor the organizers know: Paul’s real name is Harry Freudenthal, and he is a Jew from Berlin who went into hiding in Vienna in 1943 and is now trying to survive the last weeks of the Nazi regime disguised as a pilgrim on his way to Santiago de Compostela.

Liberals and Marxists both think of capital as an ‘economic’ entity that they count in universal units of ‘utils’ or ‘abstract labour’, respectively. But these units are totally ficti- tious. Nobody has ever been able to observe or measure them, and for a good reason: they don’t exist. Since liberalism and Marxism depend on these non- existing units, their theories hang in suspension. They cannot explain the process that matters most – the accumulation of capital.

  • Is National Socialism? 卐 4 Honor 卐 34
    卐 1 National Socialism Our Struggle Authored By User Iron Eagle Edited By User Johnolithicsoftware NSLegion.com ∞D)0=9M2)8=1)9_9C5\ᶲ¼0/6|1<3=2_0I18FV4≡ 卐 2 Introduction: “What we must fight for is to safeguard the existence and reproduction of our race and our people, the sustenance of our children and the purity of our blood, the freedom, and independence of the fatherland” – Adolf Hitler This Manifesto arose from the need to clarify both those who already consider themselves National Socialists while having a limited knowledge of their doctrine, and especially to those who are opposed to National Socialism. Those who never had the opportunity to study it thoroughly and know it by a version that was not from the enemy and thus able to take fair and sensible conclusions. It is an opportunity for our opponents, who were often manipulated to understand the truth about us, to fight us unconsciously and to collaborate on the same system aimed to destroy us. Many of our enemies have become aggressive towards us for finding a feasible solution. As well as to get rid of all the prejudice created by the propaganda of the mass media to defame us. The present article is an attempt to illuminate and clarify the truth about the National Socialist worldview, which was accused and persecuted for decades by people who sought to protect the People's revolt against the power of money and the dictatorship of interest. Throughout the twentieth century, it was never given to the National Socialists the right to counsel or the opportunity of a fair and democratic debate.
