Conclusion. 520 Karla Poewe illuminates an important but neglected part of Nazi history: the contribution of new religions to the emergence of Nazi ideology in 1930s Germany. Looking at traditional German occultism as well as the established Church, this book takes new religions founded in the pre-Nazi and Nazi years, especially Jakob Hauer's German Faith Movement, as indicators of how German fascism distilled aspects of religious doctrine into political extremism. It is researched from original documents, including the SS personnel files held in Berlin's Bundesarchiv. 580 The Roger Griffin ComFas Collection 650 0 National socialism |xReligious aspects. 651 0 Germany |xReligion |y20th century. 651 0 Germany |xPolitics and government |y20th century. 880 |6245 942 |2ddc |cBK 952 |00 |10 |2ddc |40 |6200_000000000000000__943_09043_POE |70 |8GEN |9160967OSA |bOSA |d2022-11-15 |eComFas |l0 |o200/.943/09043 POE |r2022-11-15 |w2022-11-15 |yBK |cGeneral Stacks 920 01 xY6vEDYJ 992 01 200_000000000000000__943_09043_POE |bXZZ_ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ__QVW_ZQZVW_ABL 966 |cIn the Research Room
