Nazi Ideology Weimar Republic
1,002 words
Hitler became chancellor in January 1933. By March
he had full dictatorial power. There is no doubt
that the impact of the depression on the German
people gave way to the rise of Hitler. It was the
single most important factor of Hitler's coming to
power, however it wasnt the only factor. Hitler
had remarkable speaking abilities, which helped
him woo the public. His use of force with the SA

groups to combine, also contributed in his rise.

Fascism, when you break it down, is a political
ideology that attempts to regenerate the social,
economic, and cultural life of a country by basing

While terrorism - even in the form of suicide
attacks - is not an Islamic phenomenon by
definition, it cannot be ignored that the lion's
share of terrorist acts and the most devastating
of them in recent years have been perpetrated in
the name of Islam. This fact has sparked a
fundamental debate both in the West and within the
Muslim world regarding the link between these acts
and the teachings of Islam. Most Western analysts

unfortunate aspect of life, but suffering is all
around us. We as a human society have always
realized this and have looked for ways to cope
with it. The time of 19 th century Russia, in
which Fyodor Dostoyevsky lived, was filled with
far more suffering, than we tolerate today. His
environment was filled with poverty, filth, and
social turmoil, which made the atmosphere far more
volatile than current life. Dostoyevsky tackles
