The Nazi policiesThe Nazi policies• The promises of the Nazis appealed to
every group of society and they told people what they wanted to hear
• The Nazis gained votes because their policies had universal appeal (they basically promised something to everyone!)

viewview• The Nazis were masters of propaganda, posters, newspapers, speeches, songs etc.
• Dr Josef Goebbels Dr Josef Goebbels was in charge of propaganda – he ensured the Nazis were always presented in a positive light
• Hitler was presented as a saviour - the only man to save Germany

Propaganda 1: Long Live Germany!

Propaganda 1: Long Live Germany!
• Hitler as a god-like figure – bathed in a glow of light – like an angel
• also bursting through the dark clouds, suggesting Hitler can push through any enemy and obstacle.
• The eagle flying over head – eagle used a lot in propaganda posters – symbol of power and strength
• Long Live Germany – Hitler will ensure Germany’s survival
• Hitler is serious, determined• Numbers of supporters -
strength• The stark red of the flags
provides and definite contrast against the grey uniform and landscape and make the nazi emblem stand out.

Propaganda 2 : One Last Hope: Hitler

Propaganda 2 : One Last Hope: Hitler
• Germany is a country in despair. • The style of drawing gives the people a
‘rough edged’ quality – making me think that they have been through a lot in recent times.
• People are tired, hungry, desperate • HITLER the biggest writing on the
poster• Mixed age range of people – all are
suffering• Idea you should put your trust, your
last hope in Hitler• The use of colour in this poster is
extremely effective – the people are all coloured in a dirty brown shade – enforcing this feeling of rough, tired, poor, shabby people who have had a hard time. It also makes the words stand out as they are printed in white.
