Development of the Nazi Party- Post Munich Putsch
Imprisonment + Difficult Times
December 1924= Govern. gained control of the country + order had been restored
Money system stablilised
Economy was starting to recover
Less scope for political activists + rabble rousers
Nazi party banned + former supporters + benefactors were either dead, in exile or had deserted
SA lost its fearsome image + reputation
Factionalsim had become a major issue in Hitler's absence
Rosenberg (temporary, interim leader) had let the party go to rack + ruin
H realised success= move away from violence + use of legality
Streicher + Strasser had both formed breakaway parties in the South + North
Austria cancelled H's citizenship + Germany :red_cross: grant him naturalisation papers <- he was stateless
H considered leaving politics + emigrating to USA
H pulled himself together + called the Bamberg Conference in southern Germany's nationalist heartland
The Bamberg Conference 1926
H's aim= restore some semblance of party unity + agree a future programme for the party
Potential leadership threat from Strasser -> 2nd only to H in popularity <- H asserted his authority + re-established the party around the Fuhrerprinzip
Strasser criticised aspects of H's policies + argued for a reimaging along more socialist lines
Being staged to put pressure on Strasser + his delegates to fall into line -> H skillfully manipulated what should have been an open debate into a 5 hour monologue + found common enough ground to bring both sides together -> converted Goebbels to his side
Deep differences remained + the tension between natioanlists + socialists persisted
Slowly H began to recover lost ground + by mid 1926 was once again in control of the party
Difficult gaining support outside Bavaria especially due to the popularity of SPD + KPD
