Nazi Propaganda
"Propaganda
tries to force a doctrine on the whole people... Propaganda works on the
general public from the standpoint of an idea and makes them ripe for the
victory of this idea."
Adolf Hitler Mein Kampf (1926).
In 1933 Germany’s new Chancellor, Adolf Hitler, established the Reich Ministry for Propaganda and Enlightenment. The Ministry was designed to drive home the doctrine of the Nazi Party through their control of art, music, film, theatre, books, radio and the press. During the 1930s and 40s the Nazis implemented the largest and most comprehensive propaganda program ever witnessed. Nazi propaganda became commonplace within every facet of life and targeted almost member of the German population. The systematic and exhaustive nature of the propaganda program was pivotal in propelling Hitler and the Nazi Party into power, gaining support for Nazi anti-Jewish policy and was pivotal in rising both money and man power for the war effort.
