Adolf Hitler and Joseph Stalin were two of the most evil men in history, responsible for countless atrocities. They had many similarities as well. Both men committed genocide to further their political agenda, massively improved the militaries of their respective countries, had their own different groups of secret police and spies, and finally they were both tyrannical totalitarian dictators. Despite sharing many similarities, their government structure and political philosophies were very different. Adolf Hitler was a Fascist who believed in a highly centralized government with himself at the top of the pyramid. Joseph Stalin was a communist who believed in collectivism and instilling fear into his political opposition. Although there are…
Hitler commands the Germans to invade the Soviet Union in 1941 – this was Hitler’s greatest mistake, but was luck on the Soviets side or was it all just the leader Stalin’s good tactics and leadership? Even though Stalin was a mass murderer and a ruthless leader, he did one thing right. After the Soviets were losing battle after battle Stalin let his commanders fight the war as they knew it, did not interfere with their plan and stuck to his word, unlike Hitler did. Stalin let his commanders be true commanders and did not use them as puppets or for his own use. He was a true leader stuck to his word which is why I think the he was successful at leading his nation to victory. As the war continued the number of errors that Stalin was making got…
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…

Adolf Hitler, the famous leader of this group, had a vision of what he believed to be the perfect society which consisted of pure German’s with blonde hair and blue eyes. As this did not fit the characteristics of the Jewish, the discriminatory behaviour began with the segregation of the racial group in order for the German’s to rein power. The vulnerable Jewish were contrasted against the German’s as being inferior and were therefore targeted, based on the Nazi’s judgement, to become eradicated from the population. Jews were removed from their professions and schooling in order to be forcibly banished from their own homes to the crowded and poor conditioned ghettos, to enforce isolation and gain authoritative power. This discriminatory behaviour and desire for an identical worldwide nation resulted in the mass murder of Jews using gas chambers in a methodical manner.…
Through the years the propaganda machine of the Nazis got better and better and had its peak after Hitler rose to power in 1933. The movie The Eternal Jew (Der Ewige Jude), directed by Fritz Hippler in 1940, is the most famous example of how the Jews were portrayed back then. Even though the film wasn’t made in the era between World War I and Hitler’s reign it is a great example of how many Germans, or Europeans for that matter, in those days thought about the Jews. More and more Jews in everyday life were feeling the effects of the growing hate towards them in Germany. Open discrimination, bullying and physical violence towards Jews was increasing as Hitler’s popularity grew…
During the period leading up to World War II, there were two men who were on opposing sides, the men were Adolph Hitler and Joseph Stalin. These men were each triumphant in their rise to power in their countries and they were very comparable in the ways that they succeeded. Their success was mostly attributed to their new ideas and their politics.<br><br>Although Hitler and Stalin hated each other, the two leaders were similar in many ways. Hitler and Stalin each rose to the highest position attainable in their respective countries, and there were three main reasons that they were able to do this. Both men were skilled users of propaganda, each was amoral, and they both had the ambition to make their countries powerful in the world. Since each was a skilled user of propaganda, they could use their words to twist and manipulate the minds of people into believing that what they were saying was the absolute truth. Using this power, they would get people to do anything for them, which proves their amorality. Since their countries were still trying to recover from World War I, they desired to restore the power back in to their countries. These three reasons will prove that Hitler and Stalin were similar in many ways.<br><br>The names Adolf Hitler and Joseph Stalin are synonymous with the word propaganda. In order to understand how Hitler and Stalin used propaganda, an understanding of what the word means, is required. According to Merriam-Webster, "propaganda is the spreading of ideas to further or damage a cause; also the ideas or allegations spread for a purpose". Hitler and Stalin each used propaganda as their tool to further their ideas and help them gain the backing of the people in their countries. The form of propaganda that Hitler used, and was successful in using, was his words. Hitler made many speeches, but the one speech that was a famous one, was his final speech at his trial for treason. In this speech he gave his views and opinions on the events preceding…
The two main rivals were Trotsky and Stalin, both members of the Politburo, the top section within the party. However, looking back from today we can see that Trotsky never really opposed a real threat to Stalin who would become the new leader of Russia officially in 1929. Stalin became the new communist leader after he successfully had won over both Trotsky, the right group of the party and the left group. In 1922 Stalin had been given the position as General Secretary of the Bolshevik party. Silently but effectively Stalin began to organise his network his supporters were given key positions within the party, while people who opposed Stalin or Stalin opposed/disliked were positioned in distant areas of Russia.…
The Second World War was one of the most devastating conflicts ever encountered, fuelled by two ruthless dictators that aimed to assert their own ideologies on the rest of the world. By comparing Nazism to Stalinism, highlights the similar authoritarian measures they embraced in order to obtain their political goals. Hitler and Stalin were seen as figureheads of their respective states. They had support among their people that enabled them to exert their influence in a corrupt manner and to form powerful militaries that could sustain their ambitious aims. However, it is this juxtaposition that limits our comparison for understanding these two forms of government. It brings notice to the notion that although these two governments possess similar characteristics in terms of oppressiveness to achieve their aims, they actually have different ideologies that are completely opposed one another on the political spectrum.…
