Fascism History

To secure the future of the Nazi party, Hitler needed to create a generation of young Germans steeped in Nazi ideology, physically fit and ready to fight and die for their country. The result was the Hitler Youth, founded in 1922, which by war-time constituted the single most successful mass movement in the Third Reich and comprised many of its most committed Nazis.

¿Estuvo implicado Alfonso XIII en el golpe de Estado de 1923?, ¿se produjeron mejoras sociales y económicas? ¿Dimitió voluntariamente Primo de Rivera? (tag de abajo) Los seis años que abarca la dictadura de Miguel Primo de Rivera (1923-1930) supone uno de los periodos de la historia de España menos conocidos, quizás, porque no pocos historiadores la han calificado como un paréntesis vacío dentro de la Restauración borbónica. Hoy sabemos que, en absoluto, fue un hombre campechano sin ideología.

In 1942, in its rush to assemble a force of seven million to take on the Axis powers, the Army discovered it had inducted some iffy patriots. Unsure of what to do with them, the Army put them all into a misfit company: the 620th Engineer General Service Company. Seething, they considered disobedience, desertion, and, ultimately, a plan to sabotage the war effort. That’s when Dale Maple and two German POWs deserted. Their plans: get to Germany and persuade the government to supply money and materials for guerilla war on US soil. That’s when their fates took an only-in-America turn.

Il fascismo pretese di erigere un nuovo Stato, ma riutilizzò abbondantemente in chiave fascista elementi e residui dello Stato liberale. Autoritario e dittatoriale, concentrò il potere pubblico, ma accettò anche la sua pluralizzazione. Eliminò libere elezioni, creò un surrogato della rappresentanza politica, si valse di organizzazioni satelliti, ma ricorse ad amministrazioni parallele per gestire la crisi economica.

Quando Mussolini tiene il primo discorso alla Camera da Capo del Consiglio, dopo la Marcia su Roma (è il 16 novembre 1922, la Marcia ha avuto luogo tra il 28 e il 31 del mese precedente), Emilio Lussu, deputato del Partito Sardo d'Azione, è in ospedale a Cagliari, vittima di un'aggressione fascista, ma riesce ugualmente a fornirne un resoconto illuminante. Mussolini può ormai giocare coi parlamentari come il gatto con il topo: li può calpestare con una sola zampata, e lo dice loro, ma può anche non farlo, se essi saranno buoni. Molti in effetti lo saranno.

Il 9 febbraio 1944 il "Corriere della Sera" diede la notizia dell'arresto di Indro Montanelli, accusato di avere scritto articoli diffamanti sul regime fascista, che in quel momento si trovava sul punto di raggiungere il gruppo partigiano guidato da Filippo Beltrami.

After the failure of the Weimar Republic, the Nazis believed their mission was to "masculinize" life in Germany. Hermann Goering told women, "Take a pot, a dustpan and a broom, and marry a man", but many still became active participants in murder and mayhem. From the Reich Bride Schools through the Bund Deutscher Mädel and the bizarre Lebensborn Aryan breeding programme to the brothels of the Sicherheitsdienst, this book covers the lives of women in the Third Reich, concentrating on those who sought personal power and influence amid the chaos.
