Recommended Posts

Hi guys, i'm studying HL by myself,

the teacher chose option 8 because he thinks it would be easier for us since we studied Nazi Germany for IGCSE.

Just one tinny mini question,

for the first bullet point: Germany 1919-39L political, constitutional,economic, financial and social problems

does that include the rise of Hitler and the Nazi Party?

Here, I've broke it down the way we learned that topic, but we covered 1918-39/45ish... dunno why, must have just flown together better (excuse any spelling mistakes)

The topic on Germany should cover the following (give or take)

Germany 1918-33: The failure of the Wiemar democracy

  • Wiemar Germany 1918-23: creation and crises


    • Was the Wiemar Republic bound to fail from the very beginning?
    • How/Why did the Wiemar Republic survive the 1919-23 crisis?

  • Wiemar Republic 1924-1929


    • did the political and economic developments stabilize the Wiemar Republic?
    • Stresemann's foreign policy

  • Germany 1929-33: failure of the Wiemar Republic and Hitler's rise to power


    • Wiemar democracy undermined by the world economic depression
    • Nazis becoming the largest party in Wiemar Germany
    • decline of parliamentary government from 1930-1933
    • Reasons for Hitler becoming Chancellor in Jan. 1933

Germany 1933-45: Nazism impact on the German people

  • Hitler securing his regime


    • why/how did Hitler consolidate his position in power
    • who had the real power in the Third Reich
    • Nazi economic policy
    • role of propaganda in the Third Reich

My suggestion while taking notes:

  1. break down your curriculum similar to this
  2. for each section analyze for/write notes on each aspect to be looked at: political, constitutional, economic, financial and social problems
  3. try to make connections between the ongoing/spontaneous problems you encounter while studying

I know this is a lot more than what you asked for... :panic: but I decided just to give you the load-down since you'll be doing it self-taught. :blink:

If you want, I have titles of good books to study from, and websites that were unbelievably amazing... The websites seriously summarized/analyzed etc so much :yes:

If you go to the links section, go to History links, and the ones I added are perfect...

Books to look into: I constructed the outline I gave you according to this text book:

Weimar & Nazi Germany, by John Hite and Chris Hinton

Also, check out these if you can get a hold of them:

  • Modern European History 1890-1990, by Alan Farmer (specifically, chapter: 5 --> Germany: 1918-1939)
  • From Bismarck to Hitler: Germany 1980-1933, by Geoff Layton (specifically chapters: 5, 6, 7
  • Germany: The Third Reich, by Geoff Layton (chapters 2, 3, 4)
  • Imperial and Weimar Germany 1890-1933, by John Laver
  • Weimar and the Rose of Hitler, by A.J. Nicholls

NOTE: The titles in bold are the one's I highly suggest, because they contain lots of sources, main questions, outlines, graphs, review sections, etc.
