Nazi Society I: the War for Work [1_47]

By the summer of 1933, Hitler had established a totalitarian dictatorship in Germany. He was, in Machiavelli's famous phrasing, "feared." But he also wanted to be "loved." This is the first of three episodes exploring how the Nazis popularized dictatorship in the mid-1930s, focusing on the issue of economic recovery. After more than three years of economic hardship (1929-1933), the Nazis helped two million people find work within a year of coming to power, and they took the German economy to full employment by the end of 1936. This episode helps explain how they did it, including discussions of the Autobahn, the Reinhardt programs, the marriage loan and a range of consumer items from Coca Cola to the Volksempfänger (people's radio).
