Propaganda As Control And Thought Of The Nazis

Propaganda as control and thought of the Nazis

Introduction

Radio as an instrument of union between social gaps. With Hitler already in power as a chancellor in 1933 and Joseph Goebbels as a propaganda minister, radio reaches its maximum splendor through the totalitarian control of the media, with the main objective of creating within the population a unique thought characterized by theNationalist feeling of the Nazi party. After the Weimar Republic together with the fall of the New York Stock Exchange in 1929, the German population especially the working class is submerged in extreme poverty, famine and unemployment.

Developing

The people expresses feelings of anger, frustration to rage against a government that does not seek the well -being of all Germans, in front of the Hitler situation is presented as the Savior of the Homeland, from its appearance in the Nazi party until the beginning ofThe war, takes as mass manipulation technique to seek characteristic feelings in the population, which can easily turn, for example rage into a single feeling of superiority that, at the same time, generate extreme nationalism sought by Hitler in the population, asPineda Cachero states.

‘The manufacture of this feeling will lead them to the destruction of the enemy, the generation of group unity and national aspirations within the community”. Taking into account the fragility of the time through which citizens pass, Hitler takes advantage of the radio as an instrument to spread the spoken word based on these new feelings created, in order to discard the weakest, undecided or even opposites to createA stronger people with admiration for the Führer and adherents to the Nazi state.

For example, to encourage more nationalist feelings.

German broadcasting was unified in a single company by monopolizing the Hernández Narváez market, which leaves the main objective of propaganda and the importance of the radio for dissemination;With the disposition of all local stations under their absolute control, he managed to make a great popular convention in which Hitler was the most effective speaker, through persuasion he managed to conquer the heart of the crowd in the middle of the crisis through the use of the partyirrational of the human being, that is, the growing nationalist feelings. Therefore, the use of radio.

It becomes increasingly important in Hitler’s propaganda to achieve the first objective before expansion;create a single mass of people with the same feeling in common. In the same way that Hitler use this mass strategy to manipulate the anger of the population looking, because according to Hitler, the most important problem that Germany should solve, was racial, especially the Jew.

Since, taking into account in the socioeconomic situation in which the country was, a guilty should be sought to the misfortune of the Germans, as a consequence Hitler points to the Jews as the main factors of the defeat in the First World War andimplants as one of its main principles of ideology in its propaganda, which caused in the population the same feeling of hatred towards a "different race", so Hitler seeks in society two feelings that can manipulate to turn the massesIn nationalist and anti -Semitic extremes.

That is, it molds the personality of the population at their convenience to later achieve expansion. Hitler when he wrote his book "My struggle" in 1925 already knew that propaganda through radio was a fundamental instrument to obtain support and exercise absolute power before the population, taking into account that, for an effective persuasionfocus on certain facts, processes and needs that the masses must know about their ruler. Goebbels after taking totalitarian control of broadcast.

That allow any citizen to hear from anywhere in the country the messages provided by the Fürer or the program carried out by the Propaganda Ministry, in order to keep the entire population in an endless loop of emotional messages by meansThey realize the figure of German supremacy because "the slogan suffered from simplicity to such a degree that the most stupid believed it" Hernández Narváez, therefore, "the way that people understand little and forget a lot" is used to forget a lot ". For example, Goebbels enhanced the manufacture of a receiver model.

 That was affordable for all homes. This device took the name of VE301 Volks Empfänger, or radio of the town and that due to its price was gradually increasing in the population of four million to sixteen between 1933 to 1934. Through this radius, one of the most repeated slogan was enhanced as a constant retention form of German superiority was: Ein Volk, Ein Reich, Ein Führer (a town, an empire, a guide) in which a unilateral announcement is shown,In order to excite an action, that is, the exaltation of German and its nationality. 

In this way Goebbels got Hitler’s voice to reach all the houses of Germany and with her, her message. However, not only did this mass persuasion carried out through the oral form, since, until the numbering of the radio referred to the exact day in which Hitler reached power, on January 30, 1933;Even the design extolled the symbols of the regime in such a way that an eagle and a swastika appeared in the front. The despair of German government control was increasingly notable among the population starting with the new model made by Goebbels.

The DKE38 still even cheaper than the previous. These devices had a series of technical deficiencies and through them only the regime stations couldThe absolute control of citizens also through limited information. On the other hand, it should also be noted that, at the time of sale, all of them were accompanied by an indication.

conclusion

Listening to foreign stations is a crime against national security and against our people. It is an order of the Führer, and its non -compliance will be punished with prison and forced labor for which another of the feelings used by Hitler appears here to control the nation: fear just as there was an incentive to nationalism was used persuasion for persuasionThe force in order that, none of its opponents some workers and other parts of the Church, could take power in each of their speeches referred to the call to violence or military force.
