Methods used by Hitler to Rise to Power (HW 16)

Legal:
The Enabling Law
Propaganda (newspapers, film, radio...)
Hitler Youth
Marriage Laws (German citizens could not marry Jews)
Citizenship Laws (Jews could not be citizens)
Made it illegal to join other political parties (outlawed KPD)
Changed curriculum in schools

Illegal:
Big Lie Theory
Concentration Camps
Killing opposition (Communists)
Manipulating Enemies in Office
Public Executions

Mistakes made by others:
Hindenburg's advisers appointed Hitler as chancellor
Court system was not very strict in punishing Hitler's Beer Hall Putsch
