The Programme of the NSDAP: The National Socialist German Worker's Party and its General Conceptions Kindle Edition

No propaganda here. Highly recommended to anyone who understands that communism and capitalism are merely opposite sides of the same coin. There is another option, and here it is, all laid out in print.

A thin volume inexorably bound to its time and place (1920s Germany), it's surprising at times how the principles of NSDAP platform, when transposed, echo modern, mainstream and semi-mainstream political planks and protestor demands, once one (sadly) strips out the anti-semitism (a phrase used liberally in the translation with a strikingly positive connotation): it seems there is something eternal and recurring here of the thoughts and feelings of downtrodden, defeated people in an unstable, decaying social order - people who are backed in to a corner and at the edge of permanent defeat - compelled to struggle against the risk of irretrievable loss of their history, identity, genetic interests, and way of life.None of the above can be said for Mao's Little Red Book, or, for that matter, the Communist Manifesto (at least it couldn't be said until the rise of Black Lies Matter, who ironically repristinate the Dead Straight White Guy for their own purposes while channeling his Jewish Frankfurt School interpreters), with which it shares some faint similarity in organization - e.g., 'the party is not a normal political party, but a transitional organization which shall cease to exist upon the implementation of its 25 points'.The point-by-point Party Platform, unlike Mao's LRB, is coherent and systematic (and far less megalomaniac and messianic) and, if light on the details, achieves a certain unity of vision and practicality beyond platitudes. In comparison, it is obvious the LRB is a product of a thought-policing dictatorship of the worst sort. On reflection, it's not surprising, given that the NSDAP was pretty much the only organization of its type (even counting the 'Founding Fathers' - now that's a thought) to gain power through legitimate, pre-existing channels as opposed to through violent revolution.Unlike Das Kapital (an extremely ponderous work of two thousand pages which I am far from finishing, and a poor comparison of an entirely different genre) is straightforward and easy to read - as would be expected of a political platform as opposed to the lucubrations of a philosopher-economist who thought he was the anointed Hegelian ushering in the end of history and realizing the Absolute in material terms.One can glimpse in the Party Programme, at times, parts of the foundations for what Nazism could have become, though it is present here only in figures and shadows which are seen clearly, I think, only ex post facto, and which leave one with more questions than are answered.

Very informative. Another eye opener and further confirmation that we have all been lied to regarding the history of Jew War 1 & Jew War II.The NSDAP was dedicated to bringing their people out from under the bootjacks of the jewish lead oligarchs that had destroyed her. And if the world had have listened to Hitler and to Oswald Mosley the world would now as well as then been a much more pleasant and prosperous place to live.Great resource book.

Nice to have a better understanding of the games played and who had the right to protect their country from invaders, and manipulators of the economy and the press.

National Socialism in its most basic form, outlined for the German Volk by Gottfried Feder -- a man who exuded a significant influence on Hitler in the early days. Essential for any National Socialist library.

Good read, don't be afraid to read things that challenge your thinking.

The documented ideological roots of the National-sotialist german party. A must have for anyone who supports the truth and doesn't stand for lies.

_The Programme of the N.S.D.A.P.: The National Socialist German Worker's Party and its General Conceptions_ is a translation of one of the earliest official publications of the National Socialist German Worker's Party by the economic theorist Gottfried Feder which outlines the earliest economic programs of the Nazis. Gottfried Feder (1883 - 1941) was a German economic theorist who was the chief economic theoretician behind the Nazi party. Feder's lecture of 1919 was one of the earliest lectures that drew Adolf Hitler to the fledgling Nazi Party. Feder was strongly opposed to Jewish financial bankers and capitalism and called for the bonds of interest slavery to be broken by the German state. He played some role in the early Nazi party in forming its economic conceptions; however, the Nazis soon abandoned many of his theories when Hitler came to full power. This short publication outlines his economic program for the N.S.D.A.P. and includes a biography of Adolf Hitler and the Nazi party.The publication begins with an account of the rise of the Nazi party and a biography of its leader, Adolf Hitler. This shows how following World War I with Germany facing economic depression and forced to pay reparations as a result of the Treaty of Versailles, the Nazi party arose in opposition to the Marxists and the Centre party. This also shows how both these parties were crushed by Hitler himself. Following this, the document turns to the official party manifesto concerning agriculture. This explains how interest slavery has crushed the farmers and outlines a program for land ownership, by which only Germans may own land. This calls for a raising of the farming classes both economically and educationally. Following this, the document turns to the policy of the N.S.D.A.P. concerning land ownership. This mentions such things as unemployment insurance and old age compensation which the Nazis sought to preserve. The document then outlines twenty-five points for the German state. This calls for an end to the "bondage of interest", a suppression of the individual to the community, and a call for a German Reich. The document also calls for reforms in economic policy, financial policy, the German state, social policy, and religion and the arts. The Nazi regime advocates a system of "positive Christianity" but claims to not oppose the churches. The document also calls for a reform in the military. The document ends with a denouncing of Marxian communism noting that the dictatorship of the proletariat has become a "dictatorship of the profitariat".This document outlines the essential economic principles that the early Nazi party claimed to adhere to. However, as the party came to take power such principles were abandoned on many points and largely became the whim of Adolf Hitler. The document is highly anti-Semitic and argues against "Jewish bankers" and "Jewish finance" blaming them for the crises in Germany. As such, the document shows how the German nation came to embrace Nazism and foisted Adolf Hitler into his position of power as supreme leader. While Feder had a susbstantial influence on the early N.S.D.A.P., he was soon ignored following the Nazi seizure of power. This document remains an important historical one for understanding the early history of the Second World War.

It seems the more one reads about the first half of the 20th Century, the more intriguing and indeed fascinating does this period appear. This is the only one of economist Gottfried Feder's writings I possess, but will probably get the others. This is a brief overview of the NSDAP's history and short discussion of policy such as the 25 Points etc. An easily readable source document (translated ETS Dugdale, original Munich 1932) which is invaluable to any with even casual interest in this period.

Good quality book. Everything fine with this order

Very, very informative if you're looking for the truth

This is a document of obvious importance for anyone interested in this period of history, but this edition is spoiled by the sometimes awkward translation and the numerous typographical errors which blight it throughout. The publisher of this edition really should have proof-read this copy at least once. At the official asking price I wouldn't recommend - there is probably an equally flawed but free pdf version of this somewhere online.

eye opener

Required reading for understanding the practical ideology of National Socialism beyond the merely the "Fuhrer cult."

Very good

interesting little booklet

Very interesting to read what the Nazi's said about the Nazi's rather than listening to just what the enemies of the Nazi's had to say about them.I found it interesting that the Nazi's removed the bankers from power and started to issue money from their government in its own right, I think their goose was cooked because of this decision more than any other.You don't mess with the bankers.

Delving into the doctrines and tenets of National Socialism minus the fictitious propaganda, propagated by the west is quite an eye opener. Did the good guys really win WW2..?

A modern printing of the 1932 political programme of the NSDAP. Covers most policies from domestics, international and economic strategies of that time.

Exactly as expected. A fascinating historical document.

If you are interested in the history of the nazi party and german history this book is a must read. It outlines the party programmes with explanatory notes. Great value for money

Love history at a great price
