Hitler's Rise to Power
Role of the S.A
With the S.A, the Nazis had a larger military force than the communists
In 1930, the SA has 40,000 members, creating a strong image at riots and rallies
-
The term "SA" refers to the Sturmabteilung, also known as the Brownshirts or Stormtroopers
-
At rallies, the SA used swords and flags as symbols of power, creating strong impressions of the Nazi party
In the elections of 1930 and '32, the SA was used to intimidate voters against voting for opposing parties. Some were killed and people were pressed at the voting stations.
Appeal of Hitler
Hitler was presented as a strong and powerful individual, and as the saviour to Germany
In propaganda posters, his appearance was altered to make him seem superhuman and physically gifted
Hitler gave powerful speeches, embedded with persuasive and convincing language
Key messages were spread about him: he was Germany's last hope, he would bring a better and stronger future for Germany
He delivered broad messages, meant to appeal to everyone, such as things like 'Make Germany strong', and 'Smash the chains of Versailles'
Because communist ideologies were not in favour of big capitalist businesses, big business owners looked to support another party that could stop the communists. Previous parties that were being supported by big businesses were on the decline, so they looked to follow Hitler. Companies like Krupps and Siemens gave money to promote the Nazi party.
