Fear it will overthrow German culture and way of life
Appeasement
Giving Hitler what he wants to avoid conflict
In the self-interest of countries i.e. Britain and France
Why support appeasement? (British)
Don't want repeat of WWI
Economy was struggling- can't afford war
Army wasn't ready for war
Hitler might be an ally against communism
Britain shouldn't worry about the rest of Europe- they're a sea away
Problems of Appeasement
It encouraged Hitler to be aggressive
Each of his gambles ended in victory, and boosted his confidence overtime
It put too much trust in Hitler's promises
He normally doesn't follow up on his promises
It allowed Germany too grow strong
They were given time to develop their army
It scared the USSR
Appeasement made the Soviet convinced that Britain and France wouldn't stand in Hitler's way
France and Britain misjudged Hitler
They didn't believe, and didn't want to belive, that Hitler would fulfill his ideaology in Mein Kampf

Hitler's Economic Policies
Full employment
Unemployment eliminated- from 30% to near 1% within 6 years
Policies to encourage employment were inefficient and expensive

Autarky ( economic self-suffiency)
