3Did Hitler rise to power because of his use of fear? BACKGROUND INFORMATIONRead this carefully. It may help you answer some of the questions.Hitler came into power in 1933 after he was appointed as Chancellor of Germany. During his rise to power, Hitler used fear and intimidation to crush opposition. However, he had also skillfully used propaganda and social control to brainwash the Germans into believing that he was the rightful leader of Germany. Read the following sources to find out the reasons for Hitler’s rise to power. Source A: A cartoon published by the communist wing of the British newspaper, March 1933. The caption “Vox Populi” means “Voice of the People”.

4 Source B: A Nazi Party poster published in 1933. The caption reads, “Arbeit und Brot” (“Work and bread”)Guillotine

5 Source C: A speech by Hitler at an election rally in July 1932.Our opponents (the Weimar Republic) accused us National Socialists, and me in particular, of being intolerant and quarrelsome. They say that we don’t want to work with other parties. They say the National Socialists are not German at all, because they refuse to work with other political parties. So is it typically German to have thirty political parties? I have to admit one thing – these gentlemen are quite right. We are intolerant. I have given myself this one goal – to sweep those thirty political parties out of Germany. Source D: Adapted from an American historian’s view, 1990.Propaganda was needed to reach the public who had not supported Adolf Hitler and to push forward the Nazis’ radical program, which required the agreement, support, or participation of broad sectors of the population. A new state propaganda apparatus headed by Jospeh Goebbels sought to manipulate and deceive the German population and the outside world. At each step of the way, propagandists preached an appealing message of national unity and a perfect future that resonated with millions of Germans. Simultaneously, they waged campaigns that facilitated the persecution of Jews and others excluded from the Nazi vision of the “National Community”. The German people were totally taken in by all these.Source E: Adapted from a British historian’s view, 1993.One of the most important things that exists for anyone to come into dictatorial power is

6fear. Whether it’s Hitler or Stalin, there was no love but only fear. Fear that your voice, your thoughts, your actions – might be taken as “dangerous”, “extremist” or “politically incorrect”… When the groups are swept into their craze by their love for the organization, the leader and “the cause”, they are lost. The rest, however, are where the power lies. The one’s who see the danger, if done early enough, can put a stop to it. Once the motion is set, however, fear of the Gestapo, of the snitches and of your own friends becomes the most powerful motivator to go along. Political correctness, labelling dissent as “racist”, “unpatriotic” or “extremist” – these happened in Germany then. Section B (Structured-essay Questions)
