Adolf Hitler and Joseph Stalin were two of the most evil men in history, responsible for countless atrocities. They had many similarities as well.

Despite sharing many similarities, their government structure and political philosophies were very different.

Although Hitler and Stalin both employed a special police force to help control the country under their totalitarian rule, Hitler’s force relied on having secret police everywhere while Stalin relied on having individuals report their friends and coworkers. To control citizens by spying on them and imprisoning them, Hitler employed the use of the Himmler’s SS and the Gestapo political police. The SS initially started off as Hitler’s personal bodyguards, but under Himmler’s command, they evolved into a more powerful force, who were eventually responsible for the Final Solution. The Gestapo, while somewhat similar to the SS, were Hitler’s secret police, who focused on taking down any opposing political opponents, primarily those who went underground after the creation of the one party system in Germany. The Gestapo were responsible for the capture and imprisonment of most opposing political leaders in Nazi Germany. According to the book on Germany, “Denouncers and…
Many historians, including myself would agree with the argument that the USSR achieved victory over Germany in spite of Stalin, not as a result of his leadership. However, its validity can be questioned as there are several points contradicting the argument, suggesting that Stalin was in fact a successful wartime leader. Even points such as Stalin being a hearty Georgian should be taken into account as it gives an insight into his motives and ‘rise to power’.…

In 1933, Adolph Hitler came to power as dictator of Germany and began to rearm the country in contravention of the provisions of the Treaty of Versailles. (TWW) In 1943, nearly 10 years later, axis Germany and Italy had officially controlled nearly 2/3 of Europe and 1/3 of Africa. This axis power seemed as impenetrable as steel itself. The historians who cover these days of infamy tend to focus on a leaders ability to lead troops into battle by comparing and contrasting them from one another. However, there is one thing that tends to be omniscient to them: the comparison and contrast of their ability to lead the one thing most important to them, the people. Fundamentally, both Benito Mussolini and Adolph Hitler had the same ardent desire to make their nation respected both economically and socially; however, their approach to this idealism was varied, most notably through domestic policy. Mussolini wanted a rebirth or renaissance if you will of Italy to the days of an ancient imperial Greco-Rome, a domestic policy amongst others that was used as propaganda to ultimately consolidate his power. Hitler, however, wanted to implement his ideological aims of German re-armament, racial purity, and a consolidation of his powers, which were reflected in his own numerous domestic policies. This essay will evaluate these similitaries and dissimilarities in domestic policy by both Hitler and Mussolini, and to what extent one leader was more successful than the other in his own policy within the axis alliance.…
