Many of them did not expect Hitler to last very long at all.Īfter his appointment, Hitler was still no autocrat. Despite the impressive propaganda images Goebbels would produce later, not all Germans were impressed.
Uniformed members of the SA ( Sturmabteilung - Nazi fighters) marched under the Brandenburg Gate and past the new address of their leader. That same evening, the Nazis held a torchlight procession through Berlin. The Wilhelmstraße (the street where the Chancellery is located) is ours’, Joseph Goebbels, the future Minister of Propaganda, wrote in his diary. The Nazis’ desire for power was fulfilled. On 30 January 1933, Adolf Hitler was appointed Chancellor, leader of the German government. Although Mein Kampf does not refer to the later mass murder of Jews during the Second World War (the Holocaust), it does show that he had already developed a hatred of Jews at this time. He wanted to expand the German territory in Eastern Europe and to throw the Jews out of Germany, since he believed they threatened the survival of the German people. In Mein Kampf, Hitler also wrote a lot about the future of Germany.

Mein Kampf is full of racist ideas and hatred of Jews and communists. He did not believe in parliamentary democracy. He raged against the Treaty of Versailles and the reparations that Germany had to pay because of the Treaty. He talked about his life and his youth, his 'conversion' to antisemitism (the hatred of Jews) and his time as a soldier in the First World War. In Mein Kampf, Hitler wrote about his ideology and presented himself as the leader of the extreme right. He wrote it in prison, where he was serving a sentence for a failed coup he attempted in 1923. On 18 July 1925, Hitler’s book, Mein Kampf (‘My Struggle’) was published. This party programme remained in force for as long as the Party existed. Only members of the 'German race' can be journalists, publishers or owners of newspapers.All non-German immigrants who have come to the country after 1914, will be made to leave Residents of other countries who are not citizens are no longer allowed to enter Germany.Should the German government ever be unable to take care of its citizens, the ‘guests’, such as the Jews, will be expelled from the country.Jews may not be civil servants because they are not citizens.Since Jews are not citizens, they are ‘guests’ in Germany.According to the Nazis, Jews do not belong to the German people because they ‘have no German blood’.The programme contained many antisemitic points: Some residents of Germany cannot be citizens and only citizens have equal rights.More land is needed for population growth.There must be a central and strong power of the state.The Treaty of Versailles must be repealed.The good of the community before the good of the individual.
The programme consisted of a list of 25 points. It was the continuation of the Deutsche Arbeiterpartei (DAP), but Hitler had its name changed. The Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei (NSDAP) was founded in 1920.
