Fashion and the Third Reich

3/17/2013

Amongst the more famous actions of the Nazis after 1933, a more obscure focus for the party was the establishment of the German Fashion Institute (Deutsches Modeamt). This was another means of controlling the lives of women in Nazi Germany and aimed to establish Aryan fashions. In particular styles were made to be feminine whilst Jewish and other non-Aryan designers were shunned. In this fascinating little article, Jane Thynne explores how Hitler attempted to create perfect Nazi women by controlling fashion. The article also looks at how prominent Nazi women duch as Magda Goebbels (pictured) refused to conform to the ideas of the institute, meaning that she was ultimately sacked from the Deutsches Modeamt later in 1933. The article comes via History Today and can be found here: LINK

The White Rose Movement

Nice little article appeared in the BBC this week, looking at the White Rose movement and its resistance to Nazi rule in Germany. Well worth a read to expand your understandsing of resitance to the Nazi regime. It is always important to understand the people did effectively have a choice I think.

Full article is available HERE

There is also a "Witness" podcast which looks at the White Rose movement available for download below. All thanks to the BBC.

Seventy years ago today, three German students were executed in Munich for leading a resistance movement against Hitler. Since then, the members of the White Rose group have become German national heroes - Lilo Furst-Ramdohr was one of them.

In 1943, World War II was at its height - but in Munich, the centre of Nazi power, a group of students had started a campaign of passive resistance... Read MORE HERE

Hitler and the Volkswagen

1/5/2013

A Nazi propaganda piece about the introduction of the Volkswagen as part of the KDF (Strength Through Joy) programme. A very interesting read.

"The enormous expansion of the German Autobahn system, which like the growth in automobile manufacturing came from the Führer’s orders, looked far into the future. Both projects go along with each other, and today hardly anyone does not cheerfully support Adolf Hitler’s work in these areas. The Führer’s will that the entire people should benefit from their common labors has repeatedly shown itself in recent years. It was only natural that it was always close to Hitler’s heart that this also include those with limited incomes. At the automobile exhibitions during the first years after the takeover of power, he so clearly expressed his wish for a Volkswagen that the automobile industry had to consider it an order or a commission. As is known, in recent years the German automobile industry was barely able to produce enough of its own models in a reasonably timely fashion, even when fully using all its labor, plants, and machines."

German Children Playing at Arresting Communists and sending them to Concentration Camps in 1933

1/5/2013

A great find from an excellent site on Nazi propaganda. This piece describes German children playing at arresting Communists and sending the to concentration camps. Probably a mixture of propaganda and reality - terrifying none-the-less. A description from the site is given below. Click the link HERE for more.

The article from this link was published only ten weeks after Hitler's takeover. It describes Munich children playing a game based on the Nazi suppression of the Communist Party (KPD). In February 1933, the S.A. had taken over the KPD's Berlin headquarters, the Liebknechthaus, which the children have turned into a game. The children even establish a “concentration camp” for the captured “communists.” The article comes from Peter Fritzche's book Life and Death in Nazi Germany. Fritzsche thinks the photos were staged, although I suspect they were based on real activities, with a bit of help from the photographer (e.g., the nicely misspelled “Libknecht Haus” sign).
