nazi germany .

Most propaganda in Germany was produced by the Ministry of Public Enlightenment and Propaganda. Joseph Goebbels was placed in charge of this ministry shortly after Hitler took power in 1933. All journalists, writers, and artists were required to register with one of the Ministry's subordinate chambers for the press, fine arts, music, theatre, film, literature, or radio.
The Nazis believed in propaganda as a vital tool in achieving their goals. Adolf Hitler, Germany's Führer, was impressed by the power of Allied propaganda during World War I and believed that it had been a primary cause of the collapse of morale and revolts in the German home front and Navy in 1918 (see also: Dolchstoßlegende). Hitler met nearly every day with Goebbels to discuss the news, and Goebbels would obtain Hitler's thoughts on the subject. Goebbels then met with senior Ministry officials to pass down the official Party line on world events. Broadcasters and journalists required prior approval before their works were disseminated. Along with posters, the Nazis produced a number of films and books to spread their beliefs. Artists deemed irreplaceble where included in Goebbel's Gottbegnadeten list (people such as Marika Rökk and Johannes Heesters). Leni Riefenstahl was arguably the most famous director from the era.^[23]

how did Nazis use propaganda to control Germany .

Joseph Goebbles was a nazi who was in charge of propaganda and he had a good understanding of how the spreading of ideas and the media could be used to control. The nazis made effective use of the media, with campaigns, radio reports, books, teaching in school, clubs, etc to get their ideology - messages across to the German people. Mass rallies were very popular where Hitler would speak to large groups of the mass public, spreading his anti-jewish ideas, he also used the promotion of his book Mein Kampf to spread anti jewish feeling. Propaganda works by repeatedly enforcing the same ideas, so that people are indoctrinated (brainwashed) and begin to buy into the ideas and follow them. It is kinda similar to the way advertising works today, expect proganda was used for much sinister purposes - the idea of an aryan race, blonde hair blue eyes, germany the great military nation and anti jewish - they were all messages popular with the nazis.

Fear was equally important, hitler had a range of followers known as the SA (Brown shirts) and the ss who would like a nazi military police who made sure the public were following the messages preached by the nazis. Those who did not fit in with the nazi way of life were "eliminated". Crystal Night - or Kristallnacht - November 9, 1938 the sa murdered many jewish people, their businesses were destroyed and star of davids were painted on their doors so it would be known they were jewish. This created a lot of fear, so people were scared to stand against the nazis.

Basically, the nazis were everywhere in the media, patrolling the streets, in the schools, on the radios and this is why they had so much control.

How Important was Propaganda in the rise of Nazis?

Pre-propaganda was incredibly important in the rise of the NAZIs. Before the Nazi's there was the 16 year Weimar republic, however complications such as there were so many groups inside the republic, everyone had their own agendas and no one was willing to compromise with decisions, the German public saw that their government was failing.

When Hitler and the NAZI's started campaigning in the mid to late 1920s, the view they offered was incredibly appealing to the German public and it made them feel that the NAZIs were their only chance to rescue their crumbling government and save their economy.

As the depression kicked in and as Germany realized that they were broke, embarrassed and seeking an extreme way of fixing the problem quickly. When the Nazis started campaigning they promised to free Germany of its ills such as communism, liberalism and capitalism. The Nazis appealed to th general public because they blamed German problems on Marxism, said it was the Jews fault and promoted the idea of race and space which brought forth the idea of uniting the purified German people and bring forth the Aryans race.

Because people were so desperate and the Nazis offered a way out, something to blame and promoted the idea of the Nazis being their saviour in their propaganda pictures it was appealing to the public. They didn't agree with the anti-Semitism but they were attracted to the idea of being united and being ridded of its problems that the Nazis were promising to fix.

Source From GOOGLE:) Re-organising the Party  In this period, however, Hitler set about reorganising the Party.   He put in place many of the things which helped it take power after 1928:    •      He reduced the number of Stormtroopers (SA) and set up the SS, a personal bodyguard fanatically loyal to himself. •      He set up a network of local parties.   He merged with other right-wing parties, then took them over. •      He set up the Hitler Youth, which attracted young people to the party. •      He put Josef Goebbels in charge of propaganda.Goebbels and Hitler believed that the best way to get the support of the masses was by appealing to their feelings rather than by argument.   They waged a propaganda campaign using posters, leaflets, radio and film, and organised rallies. •      He cultivated the support of wealthy businessmen promising them that, if he came to power, he would destroy Communism and the Trade Unions.This gave him the finance to run his campaigns.

Nazi Graves One must not forget that Germany represented the most Christianized country in the world in the 1930s and 40s. Nazi Christian soldiers died as Protestants and Catholics and their grave markers testified to their religion.
