  • Use of Propaganda to Spread Anti-Semitism in Nazi Germany During the 1930’s and 1940’s

    2264 Words  | 5 Pages

    “All propaganda has to be popular and has to accommodate itself to the comprehension of the least intelligent of those whom it seeks to reach,” Adolf Hitler (The National World War Museum). The German Nazi dictator utilized his power over the people using propaganda, eventually creating a sense of hatred towards Jews. After World War 1, the punishments of the League of Nations caused Germany to suffer. The Nazi party came to blame the Jews in order to have a nation-wide “scapegoat”. This hatred and prejudice towards Jews is known as anti-semitism. According to the Breman Museum, “the Nazi Party was one of the first political movements to take full advantage of mass communications technologies: radio, recorded sound, film, and the printed word” (The Breman Museum). By publishing books, releasing movies and holding campaigns against Jews, antisemitism came to grow quickly, spreading all across Germany. The Nazi Party often referred to the notion of a “People’s Community” where all of Germany was “racially pure” (Issuu). They would show images of ‘pure’, blond workers, labouring to build a new society. This appealed greatly to people who were demoralized during Germany’s defeat in World War 1 and the economic depression of the 1920’s and 1930’s. Hitler, along with Joseph Goebbels, used developed propaganda methods in order to suppress the Jews and spread anti semitism.

  • Indifference toward the Holocaust

    859 Words  | 2 Pages

    The Holocaust occurred over an extended period of time, causing irreversible physical and mental abuse. It happened over many years as part of a deliberate step by step process masterminded by Hitler. One of the first things that people began to see and eventually believe was propaganda. The idea of propaganda was to get people to believe something by showing illustrations that share ideas. Generally those ideas were negative or misleading, and if someone is exposed to propaganda enough, then they are more likely to begin to believe it. Hitler knew that using propaganda would be a way to influence the people of Germany into believing that Jews were horrible and needed to die. Hitler’s mean tactics not only diminished the Jews, but also kept people in fear of their life and lives of their loved ones and therefore ready to obey his rules. When people are scared for their lives… they will do crazy things. According to A Teacher’s Guide to the Holocaust “Propaganda relies on emotion rather than on logic, concentrates on a few points which are presented in simple terms, and then hammers those points ...

  • Psychological Impact of Nazi Propaganda on German Citizens

    1760 Words  | 4 Pages

    The Nazis are infamous for their heavy use of propaganda during their reign in the Third Reich, they used many means of propaganda such as posters, cartoons, radio, film, etc. The German citizens’ constant exposure to all of this propaganda from all directions had a deep psychological and psychoanalytical impact on them, it redefined their identity and who they were as well as what they thought of the world around them. Nazi propaganda often had deep symbolic meaning usually associated with anti-semitism and German nationalism, these elements were already present in the minds of the majority of Germans so it wasn’t hard for Adolf Hitler and the rest of the Nazi party to further provoke and enrage the emotions of people concerning these things, they merely had to tap into these pre disposed emotions in a way that would have the most favourable psychological impact for the Nazis. Some of the opinions and mindsets that German citizens had may have been there even before the Nazis came into power and made it seemed like they were brainwashing people with their propaganda, but with what justification can it be said that Nazi propaganda had a psychological and psychoanalytic impact on the German population to a great extent, rather than it being the work of pre set psychological states of mind of people due to the Treaty of Versailles, the Great Depression, Hyperinflation, and other sources which may have led the German population to support and hold anti-semitistic and nationalistic ideologies.
