This should now have facts related to the Emergence of the Authoritarian State. (Conditions and methods) for both of the countries you have selected to study for Paper 2. Where to find facts? - Vocabulary lists - Kognity - Assignments and activities What do we use the facts to do? -We use the facts to address the question and provide evidence/examples to analyze when addressing the question. For Example: "The use of force was the most important method used to maintain power in authoritarian states." Discuss with reference to two authoritarian states. Gulags, Great Purge, Show Trials, Assassinations of political opponents (Left Opposition and Right Opposition), in the USSR. Each example would be analyze to address the prompt as "most important method to maintain power." Cult of Stalin - another method that would be important, but not the most important, was the cult of Stalin, as it built up a following and devotion to Stalin as a godlike figure; this means when force was applied, people were apt to overlook or question if this could be the case. So while this cult was important, it was not the MOST important. Cold War Paper 3 Read Kennan's X Article, the Truman Doctrine, and Marshall Plan. Read Novikov's Assessment of the Americans. These will help us to evaluate the impact of containment and McCarthyism on foreign policy in the Americas.

We covered a lot of the content needed for understanding the rise of nationalism and militarism and their impact on foreign policy in Japan - with focus on the review of previous engagements between Japan, China, and Russia this time from the Japanese perspective. Today we will do a bit of practice for the Paper 1 by reading documents and answering Paper 1 style questions. You may work together through each question.
In March 23, 1933 the Reichstag passed the Enabling Act, formally called The Law to Remedy the Distress of the People and the Reich, allowing Hitler to pass laws without approval of parliament or President von Hindenburg.
Article 1: In addition to the procedure prescribed by the Constitution, laws of the Reich may also be enacted by the Reich Government. This includes laws as referred to by Article 85, Sentence 2, and Article 87 of the Constitution. Article 2: Laws enacted by the Reich Government may deviate from the Constitution as long as they do not affect the institutions of the Reichstag and Reichsrat. The rights of the President remain undisturbed. Article 3: Laws enacted by the Reich Government shall be issues by the Chancellor and announced in the Reichsgesetzblatt. They shall take effect on the day following the announcement, unless they prescribe a different date. Articles 68 to 77 of the Constitution do not apply to laws enacted by the Reich Government. Article 4: Reich treaties with foreign states that affect matters of Reich legislation shall not require the approval of the bodies concerned with legislation. The Reich Government shall issue the regulations required for the execution of such treaties. Article 5: This law takes effect with the day of its proclamation. It loses force on April 1, 1937, or if the present Reich Government is replaced by another. Berlin, March 24, 1933 The Reich President von Hindenburg Reich Chancellor Adolf Hitler Reich Minister of Interior Frick Reich Minister of Foreign Affairs Freiherr von Neurath Reich Minister of Finance Graf Schwerin von Krosigk After passing of the Enabling Act, Hitler and his Nazi government began passing laws to consolidate and help in maintaining power. Read through the following laws, decrees, and the oath of loyalty: The Reich Citizenship Law of September 15, 1935 Law for the Restoration of the Professional Civil Service April 7, 1933 Law on the Hitler Youth December 1, 1936 Law for the Safeguard of German Blood and German Honor September 15, 1935 Law for the Imposition and Implementation of the Death Penalty March 29, 1933 Law Against the Founding of New Parties July 14, 1933 Decree Against Public Enemies Oath of Loyalty for All State Officials Use the US Holocaust Museum's pages as a source for finding out how these laws allowed for the maintenance of power of the Nazis within Germany. |
