The Nazi Rise To Power - A Lawful Act

Student’s Name Professor’s Name Course Date The Nazi Rise to Power Many people considered the Nazi rise to power as a lawful act, entirely endorsed by law. However, it was a revolution in which Hitler seized power. By 1932, Nazi became the most influential single party in Germany. Hitler realized that the party was influential across the nation and used the opportunity to manipulate President Hon Hindenburg to become the chancellor of the party. Even though the president declined the proposal, Hitler still insisted that he would bring a lot of changes in the nation through the party. Hitler realized that the strategy would be critical in controlling national politics and seized the opportunity. It is evident after he pressured Hon Hindenburg and got the title of a chancellor on January 30, 1993. It was due to political pressure and not any legality of the law.

Mostly, the goals were to make people come together and ensure they supported one another in the political sphere when women were despised (7). Hitler believed that offering women an opportunity to lead in the society would create an environment where every person would be appreciated in the community regardless of the political, social, or financial differences.

They were seen as inferior human beings that could not match the ability of men. Women were seen as sex objects, and the society was so much against them such that in case anything negative happened, it was directed to women.
