Power of Nazi Ideology: Propagandist, Partner, and Fugitive - R |
|
How do leaders manipulate the masses, form unexpected alliances, and evade justice? This three-week course by German historian Anette Isaacs examines the power of Nazi ideology, starting with Joseph Goebbels, the propaganda mastermind who shaped public opinion. We will also explore Hitler’s meeting with the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem and the surprising Nazi-Islamist connections that influenced wartime strategies. Finally, we follow Adolf Eichmann’s dramatic escape to Argentina and the global hunt that led to his capture. Through these gripping stories, we examine the power of ideology, the consequences of complicity, and the pursuit of accountability after atrocity.
