For my social studies project, I chose to research Rudolf Hoess. Hoess joined the SS in 1933, and became part of Hitler’s regime. In 1934 he stayed attached to the SS in Dachau up until August 1938. He was later appointed Commandant of Auschwitz in 1940, which resulted in Hoess discovering a new and improved way of killing in the gas chamber. Normally Jews were killed in the chambers by carbon monoxide, but that was not enough for Hoess, he needed to go above and beyond with the way he exterminated an entire race.
Yet during World War I Germany used concentration camps for prisoners of war to manufacturing war equipment, although in the beginning of World War II they were used for anyone who threatened the peace in Germans Reich. And eventually were used to use exterminate Jews for the “Final Solution” (Byers 20 ). Hitler would concentrate the Jews into camps where he would eventually kill them, the first Camp was in the outskirts of Dachau (Byers 22). Hitler decided to start moving the Jews to concentration camps when a sixteen-year-old Jewish boy assassinated a minor official in Paris. This caused the Germans to go on a murderous spree, they burned down one-hundred-ninety-one synagogues and one-hundred-ninety-one house and apartments.
In some parts of my country, I believe culture still exists and is taken seriously. The sociobiology approach of culture explores how the history of evolution has shaped pattern of cultures in today’s world. I believe that social interactions play a huge role in the formation of identity. Having an identity is very important. It gives a person stability in a world where everything seems to be continually changing.
The Nazis rose to governmental power through a long, thought-out series of actions that turned Hitler’s leadership into a dictatorship and started the Holocaust and World War II. The origin of the Nazi group was Hitler’s opinion that the German people and the entire world needed a solution to the so-called “Jewish question”; which he preached to young German men everywhere. His belief was that there was need for a pure and elite race, specifically the Aryan race, and he would go to extraordinary lengths in
They decided the most efficient way of doing this was to set up camps to exterminate their existence so they would not pass on their genes and disrupt the Nazis' quest for the perfect race. The Nazis also set up ghettos, where Jews would live in the most horrible conditions. Jewish children soon could not go to schools with the other German children. Jewish businesses
The theme of “Dehumanization” by the Nazis to the Jews was expressed in Elie Wiesel’s novel Night. Elie Wiesel elaborated on the methods in which the Nazis demoralized the Jews and the devastating results their actions have produced. As an author he successfully used figurative language to create his accounts of the experience in the concentration camps during the Holocaust. Mr. Wiesel clearly expressed the Nazi’s dehumanization of the Jews with brutal actions and absolute vigor. These brutal actions led Elie and many of the other Jewish people to undergo drastic changes.
The Holocaust may very well be one of the most devastating events to happen in history. When Hitler gained power and took credit for improving the economy, he marked his position as a dictator. Hitler wanted change but he needed followers. Hitler had a great disliking of Jews. Hitler had written a book called “Mein Kampf” (My Struggle) while serving time in prison.
The Role of Race in the Holocaust B: Analytical body Through my research I tried to look for the role of race in the Nazi System, which probably caused the holocaust which is locked chambers that are spread with poisonous killing gas aimed for killing the Jews. Race is seen as the most illogical component of the Nazis system, which made it a dictatorial regime capable of committing acts of evil. Fundamental to all Hitler’s policies his absolute belief in the dominance of the Aryan Race and all need to prepare the German people for its role as master of Europe. According to Nazis race theorists, that the essential characteristics of the typical “Aryan” included a tall and slim build, a narrow face and nose, a famous well-known chin, afresh skin, and a gold or blond hair. Hitler aimed gradually to purify the German race, and this would be achieved by eliminating racial mixing, to create in von Shirach’s words “the perfect and complete human animal- the superman” the main obstacle to this as Hitler thought was the “eternal enemy”, the Jews.
Hitler had already convinced Germany that Jews were a disgrace. He started the extermination by taking over Poland, a country with over three million Jews. Then, he continued taking over Belgium, Luxemburg, France, and Holland, placing every single Jew under Nazis control. Hitler and his people did not know what to do with the millions of Jews, so he proposed, and executed, the Final Solution. This means, kill them all!
He single handedly sparked what we know as World War Two or as in Germany the Holocaust. What led to this devastation was the child-hood to the adult-hood, which drove his anger and hatred against the Jews; every event from adolescence to his young adult-hood corrupted his mind. Hitler’s child-hood was a confusing, and different one from the average child back then. Born in the Branau Amm Inn, April 20th- 1889. He grew up at his youngest a normal average young healthy boy, him and his father had a good connection father son wise, but one tragic event led to possibly a beginning of Hitler’s growing rage and anger.
