Document Summary
Followed a course from aristocracy (places power in the hands of the small) to democracy (all the people of state involved in making decisions) unlike any other in europe. Used to explain german foreign policy and ideology before wwi. Basically saying that the way germany progressed as a nation made the uprising of a group such as the nazi(cid:495)s. They thought themselves to be different in every way making them better as a nation than anyone in europe or inevitable and predictable. the western world. Speaks about the constant animosity that the german people had with the jewish culture and people. Martin luther and adolf hitler 2 of the most unshakable anti-semetics. Both had strong sense of german nationalism and the hatred for jews fueled such unity. Luther(cid:495)s anti-semitism of the (cid:883)(cid:887)(cid:882)(cid:882)(cid:495)s is a reflection of (itlers actions in ww)). Believed to be because of the (cid:494)sonderweg(cid:495) that german stood behind. Only became a politically unified nation in 1871.
