Bridget Finnegan 3/15/12 Period 1 Describe and analyze the changing views toward the concept of a “civil peace.” (Burgfrieden) in Germany from 1914 to 1918. During the year 1914, Germany’s Reichstaf, or parliament, was putting forth two major efforts: mobilizing German troops into was as well as declaring Burgfrieden (civil peace) in an attempt to convert Germany into a powerful, unified nation with a forcible grip on this war. Throughout the duration of the Great War, 1914 to 1918, the overall attitude of the German people in response to this civil peace changed along with Germany’s status in the war- worse. In 1914, the first year of WWI and that the Burgfrieden was put into action, the German people reacted to the civil peace with nothing short of exuberance, throwing all of their energy into it and the war effort.

Everyday Life in Nazi Germany Ordinary life for German citizens during Nazi Germany can be a challenging topic to study. Given the complexity of individual human nature as well as varying group ideologies, makes this a difficult topic to analyze. Robert Gellately offers an interesting perspective in his book, The Gestapo and German Society: Enforcing Racial Policy. Gellately’s book demonstrates vast amounts of German individuals willing to participle in the enforcement of Nazi racial policy. In contrast to Gellately, John Delaney purports certain groups of German civilians were less inclined to follow racial policies, in his article, “Sowing Volksgemeinschaft in Bavaria’s Stony Village Soil: Catholic Peasant Rejection of Anti-Polish Racial Policy, 1939-1945.” Examination of the two articles displays that geographical location, wealth, and one’s pre-existing ideologies played a ample role in how individual citizens experienced ordinary life during Nazi Germany.

While Redlining is mainly used in correlation to financial discrimination; this term can also be applied to the German Americans' struggle for equal treatment. During this particular time period the Government issued the Alien Registration Act of 1940. This act stated all people of German decent were to register with the Federal Government, which restricted their travel and property owning rights. This greatly affected the German farmers who came to the United States with the dream of having their own farm to work off of and now this dream came with restrictions. Although German Americans struggled with prejudice and discrimination, they also played a positive role in trying to rise up and face the
