Apart from some strange transcription errors with German names and words, this is a strangely fascinating book on the worst period in German history.

Paul von Hindenburg failed to obtain an outright majority, but in a runoff election the following month he outpolled Nazi leader Adolf Hitler by about six million votes. Papen, in an attempt to shore up his parliamentary standing, called a snap election in July The political deadlock continued, however, and in December Hindenburg set aside Papen and replaced him with Gen. Kurt von Schleicher. Papen, who retained some power and influence as a vice-chancellor, persuaded Hindenburg to bring Hitler into the government, thereby creating a coalition with a majority in the Reichstag. Having thus attained his goal of reaching the chancellorship legally, Hitler took office on January 30, The democratic interlude of the Weimar Republic was effectively at an end. In the coalition cabinet, the Nazis held only 3 out of 11 seats.

  • To the Limits of Acceptability: Political Control of Higher Education
    John Biggs and Richard Davis (eds), The Subversion of Australian Universities (Wollongong: Fund for Intellectual Dissent, 2002). Chapter 2 To the limits of acceptability: political control of higher education William Bostock Over 2,000 years ago Aristotle observed that humans are political animals. In a more recent discussion, politics was defined as “who gets what, when, how,”1 and if we apply this proposition to higher education, it is clear that higher education is highly political. In this chapter I will consider a number of examples of how in the exercise of power policy-makers have pushed universities to the limits of accept- ability and sometimes beyond. What are the limits of acceptability and what are the consequences of exceeding them? A useful metaphor sees a university as a ship2 (an adaptation of the conventional “ship of state”). I am not going to argue that universities should be or could be totally exempt from any political interference, rather that, like courts of law or hospitals, certain kinds of inappropriate interference by politicians or their appointees are highly damaging to the performance of the essential tasks of these institutions. For a university to maintain its standing as a university, it must operate within certain parameters of academic acceptability; just as a ship must remain within certain hydrodynamic parameters to stay afloat. Academic parameters are more difficult to locate, because, unlike ships, universities rarely sink without trace. Nevertheless, gross breaches of procedure can griev- ously damage an institution’s standing, with disastrous consequences for students and staff, present and past, and a community at large.

  • The Pink Swastika
    THE PINK SWASTIKA Homosexuality in the Nazi Party by Scott Lively and Kevin Abrams 1 Reviewers Praise The Pink Swastika “The Pink Swastika: Homosexuality in the Nazi Party is a thoroughly researched, eminently readable, demolition of the “gay” myth, symbolized by the pink triangle, that the Nazis were anti- homosexual. The deep roots of homosexuality in the Nazi party are brilliantly exposed . .” Dr. Howard Hurwitz, Family Defense Council “As a Jewish scholar who lost hundreds of her family in the Holocaust, I welcome The Pink Swastika as courageous and timely . Lively and Abrams reveal the reigning “gay history” as revisionist and expose the supermale German homosexuals for what they were - Nazi brutes, not Nazi victims.” Dr. Judith Reisman, Institute for Media Education “The Pink Swastika is a tremendously valuable book, replete with impressive documentation presented in a compelling fashion.” William Grigg, The New American “...exposes numerous lies, and tears away many myths. Essential reading, it is a formidable boulder cast into the path of the onrushing homosexual express...” Stan Goodenough, Middle East Intelligence Digest “The Pink Swastika is a powerful exposure of pre-World War II Germany and its quest for reviving and imitating a Hellenistic-paganistic idea of homo-eroticism and militarism.” Dr. Mordechai Nisan, Hebrew University of Jerusalem “Lively and Abrams call attention to what Hitlerism really stood for, abortion, euthanasia, hatred of Jews, and, very emphatically, homosexuality. This many of us knew in the 1930’s; it was common knowledge, but now it is denied...” R. J. Rushdoony, The Chalcedon Report “...a treasury of knowledge for anyone who wants to know what really happened during the Jewish Holocaust...” Norman Saville, News of All Israel “...Scott Lively and Kevin Abrams have done America a great service...” Col.

It examines the developments in the period between 1933 and 1955. During this time high-ranking Nazis, local residents, tourists and pilgrims appropriated the house for their purposes by creating various narratives about this space. As unimportant as the house might have been to Hitler himself from the point of view of sentimentality and childhood nostalgia, it had great propaganda value for promoting the image of the private Führer. Braunau itself was turned into a tourist destination and pilgrimage site during the Nazi period—and beyond.

  • Public RITUAL and the NAZI MYTHOS
    THE FORM THAT FUELS THE FLAME: PuBLIC RITUAL AND THE NAZI MYTHOS Jason D. Lah man UBLIC rituals played an important role in the culture of the Third p Reich. Although events like the mass rallies at Nuremberg were highly choreographed and carefully planned, the image that they conveyed was one of enthusiasm and genuine accord. This essay will consist of four sections in which I will endeavor to cast more light on the phenomena of Nazi public rituals and understand how they fit into our current understanding of Nazism. The first part will be a review of the literature on how Nazism’s belief-system/world-view has been classified. A variety ofterms have been put forward by social scientists from various disciplines in an attempt to understand its historical, social, cultural and psychological dynamics. I propose that a way into the heart ofthe matter is to look more closely at the word Weltanschauung, a concept so important that it was used by the Nazis themselves to describe the reality they were attempting to solidify in Germany. By understanding exactly what this word connotes we find that an analogous term used by scholars of fascism, ‘mythos,” may be useful—especially since mythos is directly connected to ritual practices. Thus to describe Nazism as a mythos seems to make sense in methodological terms and also coincides with what the Nazi leadership was attempting to accomplish culturally in German society—namely to bring about the adoption of a specific Weltan schauung on the popular level. In the second section I will discuss four key beliefs or narratives (myths) making up this Weltanschauung and discuss why they were so important to the Nazis for the maintenance of social power and the manipulation of mass opinion.

  • Music and Politics in Hitler's Germany
    Music and Politics in Hitler’s Germany In the years 1933-1945, Hitler’s Nazi Party [National Socialist Democratic Workers Party / NSDAP] used music as a tool to forge political unity among Germans. Hitler and the senior NSDAP leadership instinctively grasped that among the arts, music was the most readily laden with ideology, and could inculcate both the youth and the masses with state-serving Bildung.1 Nazi music education, promoted heavily by and among the Hitler Youth, expanded along with concerns of “cultural Bolshevism,” and served as a counterpoint to “degenerate music.”2 Once in power, Hitler moved to purge music and music scholarship of Jews in an effort to promote the unique origin myths of the German Volk and further saturate citizens with racial theories. In keeping with origin myths and racialism were the Romantic works of the composer Richard Wagner, a prominent anti-Semite who would assume supreme musical status in Hitler’s Germany.3 In such a personalized regime as Hitler’s, the dictator’s tastes virtually defined official aesthetic norms.4 Throughout the period of Hitler’s chancellorship, the musical bureaucracy of the NSDAP would struggle to balance the tensions between art music (symbolized by Wagner) and popular demand for music such as jazz. These very tensions were also reflected in the musical policies of the German occupation of Eastern Europe and Soviet Russia, an occupation which simultaneously plundered antique musical treasures and brought about demand for popular fare behind the lines. Ultimately the adoring songs of the soldiers – many of them graduates of the Hitler Youth -- would transform into a dirge.

  • Prefigurations of Nazi Culture in the Weimar Republic
    16 Prefigurations of Nazi Culture in the Weimar Republic ROB BURNS Long before l!itler seized power in 1933, the National Socialists had declared their movement to be the spearhead of a revolution and in g:e.neral historians have not been notably reluctant to acce~t that designation.I It is as well tobe clear, however, in what sense the term is to be used, for--pace David Schoenbaum2 __ to speak of the c'iazi "social revolution" is to imply a thoroughness of transformation that is belied by the social structure of the Third Reich. The configuration of economic interests underpinning \leimar Germany was barely challenged, let alone transformed by the Hazi reeime, and to argue, as Sebastian l!affner has recently done,3 that the i'iSDAP was in essence a "socialist" party is merely to blunt the conceptual tools of ~olitical analysis. The real llational Socialist revolution was carried through on two fronts but in pursuit of a single goal, namely the total control of the individual. On the one hand, this entailed an administ.rative revolution that created a state within a state. National Socialisra did not smash the existing state apparatus as the Leninist orthodoxy of revolution would demand; rather it created another one, parallel to and ultirnately superseding the administrative machinery bequeathed to the regime by the now defunct Ueimar Republic. The SS state' s "revolution of nihilism," to use Hermann Rauschning's celebrated phrase, 1vas complemented by a cultural revolution, the goal of which was the total control of the individual through the systematic organization and mass dissemination of ideology.

  • Feeding the Volk: Food, Culture, and the Politics of Nazi Consumption, 1933-1945
    FEEDING THE VOLK: FOOD, CULTURE, AND THE POLITICS OF NAZI CONSUMPTION, 1933-1945 By MARK B. COLE A DISSERTATION PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 2011 1 © 2011 Mark B. Cole 2 In memory of my mother 3 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Researching and writing a dissertation is largely a solitary endeavor, but my experience has been greatly enriched by people and institutions on both sides of the Atlantic. First and foremost I must wholeheartedly thank my Doktorvater, Geoffrey J. Giles, not simply because he had the good sense to take on a graduate student with admittedly peculiar interests (food and Nazis), but because he has been a model advisor and has always unflinchingly “mounted the barricades” on my behalf. His support has been unwavering, his advice always spot on, and his criticisms insightful. While he will always remain a mentor, I am happy to say that over the years he has also become a dear friend. I should also like to thank two other scholars. At the University of Toledo, Larry Wilcox was the first to spark my interest in German history by doing what he does best, being a fabulous teacher. And, from my very first semester as master’s student at the University of Akron to the present day, Shelley Baranowski has been a constant source of support and inspiration. It is a great personal and intellectual debt that I owe her. The University of Florida in general and the Department of History in particular provided an excellent intellectual environment for me to grow as a historian.
