Nazis in the Wilderness: Rebuilding the Party (1925-1928) [1_38]
When Adolf Hitler left prison in Dec. 1924, his Nazi Party lay in ruins. Officially banned by the Bavarian government, he was also prohibited from public speech in many German states. And yet, eight years later he would become Chancellor of Germany, head of the country's largest political party. How did this happen?
This episode begins to answer that question by looking at the rebuilding of the Nazi Party between 1925 and 1928. In addition to discussing some of the key bureaucratic changes that prepared the party for exponential growth after 1928, it also explains how Hitler conquered potential party rivals such as Joseph Goebbels and Gregory Strasser. In the end, it argues that this establishment of a dictatorship over the party played a key role in paving the way for Hitler's future domination of Germany.
