Since these misconceptions are so ingrained and for the most part based on prejudices, they are difficult to clear up. Since the end of the war, the German nation in particular has been taught an object lesson on this subject. It is impossible to imagine a better or more powerful les­ son. In a relatively short time span historically, propaganda has become extremely important in Germany; today there is more than enough proof of the fact that imperial Germany was overthrown by the onset of Marxist propaganda. It is also clear that the Marxist-democratic regime was overcome sole­ ly because the idea of National Socialism and National Socialist propaganda countered Marxism with a superior new order and efficiency. Even propaganda must be mastered. It is absolutely useless to assign this job to just any bright person who happens to be available as the need arises. As with all great art, it requires uniquely qualified peo­ ple who usually found a school through which they render their art form acceptable. The common mis­ conception that propaganda is dishonorable or inferior must also be dispelled. As with everything else in life, it depends entirely on how it is used and what it contributes in practical terms to the world. In this sense, propaganda has nothing at all to do with promotion. At its best, propaganda allows situa­ tions and people to speak for themselves. Propaganda ensures that if something is worthwhile, its full value is brought to light and explained. Good things and great people speak for themselves. One must value them and not place restrictions on them. The most important characteristic of particularly successful propaganda is that nothing is omitted and nothing is added that is not essential to the subject in question. The characteristics of situations or personalities are to be clearly, powerfully, simply, and naturally lifted out of the confusion of current top­ ics, so that these pOints are understandable and obvious to the masses of people who shall be moved and won over. National Socialism and its principal representatives lend themselves naturally to this art. And they have worked hard to learn and apply their art. They have accomplished this through untiring and extremely close contact with the people and by progressively refining their skills to the highest level. Moreover, the FUhrer himself was the greatest teacher of propaganda. It is a little-known fact that for quite a while early in the history of the party the FUhrer held no office other than that of Director of Propaganda. His ingenious mastery and management of this office left upon the party a unique intellectual, organi­ zational, and political marlc From the very beginning his supporters (and later the entire German nation) focused the entirety of their love on him and placed an enormous store of trust in him, for his very nature and character recognized the necessity of speaking to his people (whose child he always was and always will be) and of acting from the heart. Initially the masses saw him from a distance only as a politician and statesman. The pure­ ly human side of him remained in many ways in the background. Today the world recognizes Hitler as the creator of National Socialist doctrine and the organizer of the National Socialist state; as the pioneer of a new European order; as the guide to peace and to the wel­ fare of nations. But untold millions all over the world know that behind all of this there is the exciting and fascinating figure of the man Adolf Hitler - even if they have only a rough idea of what this means. The great simplicity and the simple greatness radiating from his person completely and compellingly affect not only every German, but also touch every foreigner who possesses good instincts. Today he can no doubt be described the world over as the man who is most deeply and clearly rooted in the thought and mood of these modern times, and who because of this, has within himself the ability to re­ form these times as no other can. In order to completely appreciate this side of him, one must see him as a person in addition to politician and statesman. And this book shall be a guide. This book provides insight into his personality, brought with love and veneration from his closest colleagues and oldest comrades. In this book, the authors offer the public a picture of this great man that has not previously been seen. All of the contributors to this publication have known the Fuhrer for many years, right down to the last detail, and thus have come to admire him more and more each day. It is thiscperspective that makes this book valuable. The FUhrer appears in this book as a person with an immediate connection to all the issues of our times. The German nation will gladly grasp this chance to see the FUhrer up close, thereby getting closer to him personally. In addition, it is particularly gratifying that this book will be easily available and affordable. This will give masses of German readers access to it.

  • The Formulation of Nazi Policy Towards the Catholic Church in Bavaria from 1933 to 1936
    CCHA Study Sessions, 34(1967), 57-75 The Formulation of Nazi Policy towards the Catholic Church in Bavaria from 1933 to 1936 J. Q. CAHILL, Ph.D. This study concentrates on the relations between church and state in Bavaria as a problem for Nazi policy-makers at the beginning of Nazi rule. Emphasizing the Nazi side of this problem provides a balance to those studies which either condemn or defend the actions of church leaders during the Nazi period. To understand the past is the first goal of historians. A better understanding of the attitudes and actions of National Socialist leaders and organizations toward the Catholic Church will provide a broader perspective for judging the actions of churchmen. Such an approach can also suggest clues or confirm views about the basic nature of Nazi totalitarianism. Was National Socialism essentially opposed to Catholicism ? Was its primary emphasis on domestic policy or on foreign policy ? Perhaps basic to these questions is whether Nazism was monolithic in its ruling structure or composed of diverse competing groups. I believe that the question of Nazi church policy is worth studying for its own sake, but it has further implications. The materials used for this study are mainly microfilms of documents from the Main Archive of the National Socialist German Worker's Party in Munich, and from the files of the Reich Governor in Bavaria. An important part of these documents is made up of police reports, which, however, include more than mere descriptions of crimes and charges. But the nature of this material poses the danger of emphasizing those elements for which we have the most documentation.

  • Two the SS SYSTEM and NAZI IDEOLOGY
    Two THE SS SYSTEM AND NAZI IDEOLOGY In a well-known but now aging book, Gerald Reitlinger claimed that the key for understanding the origins of the SS lay in the Freikorps: to him, there were no clear-cut boundaries between the end of the Freikorps and the beginning of SA and SS (Reitlinger, 1957, p. 4). This claim had the merit to stress some ideological continuities in a defeated and humiliated Germany, given that the Freikorps were animated by the same spirit that would give rise to Nazism. To some extent, however, the origins of the SS were a by-product of some of the Great War’s field tactics. Per se, they had little to do with ideology. 1. The Origins of the SS Late in the Great War, General Erich Ludendorff envisaged a series of attacks, in order to break through the Western front. To that purpose, he set up his assault divisions, spearheaded by shock units: the Stosstruppen, made of fighters able to use all kinds of weapons. These units were inspired by a model that had appeared empirically, on the battlefield, in 1915 (Jardin, 2005, p. 182). And precursors of such units had existed already in 1914. In fact, the inspiration for the SS came from that battlefield culture with which many people were familiar at that time. According to an official account prepared by the Archivamt des SS- Hauptamtes (SS Archive Office), early in the history of the movement, the necessity arose to create a small elite troop, made of tough and trustworthy elements.

To explain the fatal efficiency and relative stability of the Nazi dictatorship, it is necessary to analyze how governmental institutions and society at various levels of the political system interacted. Contrary to the expectation that polycratic structures hampered administrative efficiency and tended to undermine well-established political structures it turns out that new models of governance evolved from the chaot- ic competition and short-lived cooperation of traditional administrations, party structures and newly created special institutions.

Dissertations are also important for the persons supervising them. The successful completion of students’ disserta- tions is a measurable index of an academic’s standing and compe- tence, and some biographies of historians contain listings of the per- son’s graduate students, like so many notches on a belt.2 The “ordeal by thesis” can be a stressful time for the student—not simply submit- ting the dissertation, but hoping that it will pass muster, and if so whether it will actually result in a job.

  • Geschichte PS
    I. Historie des Personenschutzes I.1 Alte Kulturen Die Anfänge des Personenschutzes sind nicht mehr genau festzustellen. Jedoch ist es sicher, dass es bereits bei den älteren Kulturen Hinweise auf die Existenz von Kriegern gibt, deren vorrangige Aufgabe es war, den höchsten Repräsentanten des Gemeinwesens oder andere Symbolfiguren zu schützen. Dem im Jahre 206 v. Chr. gestorbenen chinesischen Kaiser Qui Shi Huangdi wurden 7000 Terrakotta-Krieger mit ins Grab gegeben. Angeblich wurden die Figuren seinen lebenden Leibwächtern und Soldaten nachempfunden. Wie viele dieser Tonkrieger tatsächlich Leibwächter waren, ist leider nicht nachzuweisen. Alle Figuren waren mit Waffen ausgerüstet, die allerdings die lange Zeit bis zur Entdeckung nicht überstanden. In einem ägyptischen Grab bei Assuit fanden Archäologen Holzfiguren als Grabbeigaben, die dunkelhäutige, lang aufgeschossene und muskulöse Krieger darstellen, die mit Pfeil und Bogen bewaffnet waren. Alterstumforscher gehen davon aus, dass es sich bei den Figuren um Leibwächter handelt, die den Verstorbenen auch im Jenseits beschützen sollten. Man nimmt an, dass die Holzfiguren nubische Krieger darstellen, die dem Pharao als Leibwächter dienten. Vom Pharao Teti, der von 2345 bis 2333 v. Chr. regierte, weiß man heute mit Sicherheit, dass er von seinem eigenen Leibwächter getötet wurde, was in späteren Epochen durchaus häufiger vorkam. Weitmehr weiß man dagegen über die cohors praetoria , die Leibgarde der römischen Feldherren. Unter K aiserAugustus (63 v. Chr. bis 14 n. Chr.) entwickelte sich schließlich die Prätorianergarde. Diese Leibgarde sorgte nicht nur für den direkten Personenschutz des Kaisers. Sie bewachten auch die Villen und Paläste oder begleiteten Augustus auf Reisen und Feldzügen. Einfache Prätorianer wurden auch im Polizeidienst eingesetzt.
