Episode 143 - The Third Reich

Power had been won, but for Adolf Hitler, that wasn't enough. War was the goal of the new regime, and it needed the people firmly behind it. Where Imperial Germany failed, the Nazis would succeed. German society would be configured so that it would support the regime even after all hope of victory was lost. That's the topic of today's episode, how the people were bound to the new state.    Evans, Richard The Third Reich in Power Penguin Books 2005 Kershaw, Ian Hitler, 1889-1936: Hubris W.W.
