  • Radio and the Rise of the Nazis in Prewar Germany
    Radio and the Rise of the Nazis in Prewar Germany Maja Adena, Ruben Enikolopov, Maria Petrova, Veronica Santarosa, and Ekaterina Zhuravskaya* May 10, 2014 How far can the media protect or undermine democratic institutions in unconsolidated democracies, and how persuasive can they be in ensuring public support for dictator’s policies? We study this question in the context of Germany between 1929 and 1939. Radio slowed down the growth of political support for the Nazis, when Weimar government introduced pro-government political news in 1929, denying access to the radio for the Nazis up till January 1933. This effect was reversed in 5 weeks after the transfer of control over the radio to the Nazis following Hitler’s appointment as chancellor. After full consolidation of power, radio propaganda helped the Nazis to enroll new party members and encouraged denunciations of Jews and other open expressions of anti-Semitism. The effect of Nazi radio propaganda varied depending on the listeners’ predispositions toward the message. Nazi radio was most effective in places where anti-Semitism was historically high and had a negative effect on the support for Nazi messages in places with historically low anti-Semitism. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! * Maja Adena is from Wissenschaftszentrum Berlin für Sozialforschung.

Chapel Hill 2007 Approved by: Advisor: Dr. Christopher Browning Reader: Dr. Konrad Jarausch Reader: Dr. Lloyd Kramer Reader: Dr. Michael Hunt Reader: Dr. Terence McIntosh ©2007 Kevin Mason ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Kevin Mason: Building an Unwanted Nation: The Anglo-American Partnership and Austrian Proponents of a Separate Nationhood, 1918-1934 (Under the direction of Dr. Christopher Browning) This project focuses on American and British economic, diplomatic, and cultural ties with Austria, and particularly with internal proponents of Austrian independence. Primarily through loans to build up the economy and diplomatic pressure, the United States and Great Britain helped to maintain an independent Austrian state and prevent an Anschluss or union with Germany from 1918 to 1934. In addition, this study examines the minority of Austrians who opposed an Anschluss . The three main groups of Austrians that supported independence were the Christian Social Party, monarchists, and some industries and industrialists. These Austrian nationalists cooperated with the Americans and British in sustaining an unwilling Austrian nation. Ultimately, the global depression weakened American and British capacity to practice dollar and pound diplomacy, and the popular appeal of Hitler combined with Nazi Germany’s aggression led to the realization of the Anschluss .

  • An Introduction to German Rural Mail (Landpost
    An Introduction to German Rural Mail (Landpost) Markings and Cancels; Part 1 Ken Gilbert Have you ever seen a marking like this on a German cover and wondered what it was? Image 1. Typical Landpost marking ca. 1934 This (Image 1) is an example of a German rural mail (Landpost) auxiliary marking. Rural mail is an important part of major postal systems. There are varied ways in which this need was met, often following how rural areas were organized. In the United States, post offices were set up in rural towns, but this often involved lengthy travel as most farmers lived on their own farms, strung out along country roads. This led to the introduction of Rural Free Delivery in 1896, which was helped by the introduction of motorized vehicles and better roads in the first half of the 20th century. In Germany, rural areas developed differently. Farms radiated outward from a central village, which was easier to defend, with larger villages being walled. The mosaic quilt of German states prior to the Empire made the transfer of mail between different government systems a challenge. One solution was the famous and private Thurn and Taxis system (Image 2), which covered most of the smaller states and served all of Germany in- cluding rural locations. Some states, such as Baden, had a rudimentary rural system, as may be seen, for example, from the well-known Landpost postage dues of Baden (Image 3), which paid for delivery to rural ad- dresses not served by a post office.

The Monuments, Fine Arts, and Archives (MFAA) Section recovered Nazi-looted works of art and artifacts from various storage areas and shipped the objects to one of four U.S. central collecting points, including Wiesbaden. In order to research restitution claims, MFAA officers gathered intelligence reports, interrogation reports, captured documents, and general information regarding German art looting. The Wiesbaden records are part of the “Ardelia Hall Collection” in Records of United States Occupation Headquarters, World War II, Record Group (RG) 260.

Kruger certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: Logistics Matters: the Growth of Little Americas in Occupied Germany ________________________________ Chairperson, Theodore A. Wilson Date approved: 3 October 2014 ii ABSTRACT The U. S. Army’s presence in Germany after the Nazi regime’s capitulation in May 1945, required pursuit of two stated missions: (1) to secure German borders, and (2) to establish an occupation government within the U. S. assigned occupation zone. Both missions required logistics support, an often unstated but critical mission. The security mission, provided largely by the combat troops, declined between 1945 and 1948, but grew again, with the Berlin Blockade in 1948, and then with the Korean crisis in 1950. However, the occupation mission grew under the military government (1945-1949), and then during the Allied High Commission era (1949-1955). The build-up of U. S. Army infrastructure during the early occupation years has stood forward-deployed U. S. military forces in Europe in good stead throughout the ensuing years. The United States military force, predominantly the U. S. Army, was the only U.

    NEGOTIATING MURDER: WEHRMACHT SOLDIERS AND PARTICIPATION IN ATROCITIES, 1941-1942 Waitman W. Beorn A thesis submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in the Department of History. Chapel Hill 2007 Approved by Advisor: Christopher Browning Reader: Konrad Jarausch Reader: Joseph Glatthaar © 2007 Waitman W. Beorn ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT WAITMAN W. BEORN: NEGOTIATING MURDER: WEHRMACHT SOLDIERS AND PARTICIPATION IN ATROCITIES, 1941-1942 (Under the direction of Christopher Browning) How did ordinary German soldiers confront atrocities and their complicity in them? This study investigates the complexities of participation and non-participation in spontaneous acts of violence in one unit on the eastern Front. It begins by examining what kinds of propaganda soldiers were exposed to and what kinds of beliefs and worldviews they expressed in letters home. In September 1942, the 4th Panzer Signal company murdered thirty to forty Jews in the tiny Soviet town of Peregruznoje, apparently on the initiative of the unit commander. A case study of this unit illuminates a twisted terrain of choices, pressures, norms, and organizational culture that helps explain why some men (and units) killed and others did not. This work argues that the kinds of “perpetrators” among Wehrmacht soldiers fall along a continuum of response: an activist core led by the commander, followers who went along, and others who evaded participation. iii TABLE OF CONTENTS
