Craig This book takes a good long look at that chaotic brand of democracy that characterized the Weimar Republic. It opens with a chapter on Bismarcks empire of 1871-1914, when Wagner was glorifying everything German, Nietzche was developing the German power complex, and depressions were already being blamed on the Jews. From that point there is a play-by-play description of the political happenings: the formation of innumerable parties; the influence of dozens of leaders from the right, the left, and the center; the making of the peace; the dictates of Wilson; the establishing of the Republic; civil war; Versailles; the first sounds from Adolf Hitler; the Dawes Plan; the presidency of von Hindenburg; the Young Plan; the Great Depression; the first major triumph of the Nazis; Hitlers Dusseldorf speech; von Hindenburgs re-election and the advance of the Nazi tide; and finally the advent of Adolf Hitler himself.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51856054681888,"sku":"NEW0393002802","price":41.14,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/71jFNt-6MSL.jpg?v=1781545950","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/germany-tried-democracy-0393002802","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
