Fascism/Could It Happen in the US?
[ send me this paper ]
A 4 page research paper that examines the nature of fascism and whether it could occur in the US. Since the 1930s and 40s, historical scholarship has wrestled with the problem of precisely how to define fascism, in both its Italian and German forms, and how to differentiate these forms from other totalitarian regimes, such as Stalinism. The lurking question behind all of such scholarship is whether or not fascism could emerge again on the world political stage. Looking at the common factors shared by the regimes of Hitler and Mussolini, as well as the features that they both share with Stalinism. There appears to be common ground in all of these authoritarian regimes that appeals to something basic in Western character and which, therefore, constitutes a danger to the concepts of democratic governance.

Gays/Lesbian Perception Within Minority Groups And Jewish Stereotypes Circa World War II
[ send me this paper ]
6 pages in length. Gay and lesbian members of minority groups receive the same level of disdain as they do from those outside their subpopulation. Indeed, one would expect gays and lesbians to be supported within their particular minority community, however, just because someone is Latino, black or Asian does not automatically mean he or she will embrace anymore social tolerance than anyone else. The ways in which Jews were stereotyped by the German people during the period before World War II are well documented by illustrating how at the time of World War I, totalitarianism was taking a stronghold upon Europe institutions, while the Great Depression proved to threaten the very character and destiny of Western civilization. Bibliography lists 14 sources.

German Foreign Ministry During The Nazi Regime
[ send me this paper ]
It seems reasonable
that a government that includes a Foreign Ministry would rely on that
office to determine foreign policy. This was not true of Germany in the
years between 1933 and 1939. This 16 page paper argues that Hitler
brought with him his own beliefs concerning the interaction between
nations. He implemented policies congruent with his own beliefs and
agenda, without regard to the established diplomatic services of the
Foreign Ministry. Bibliography lists 12 sources.

Hades And Hitler: Compare/Contrast
[ send me this paper ]
5 pages in length. A cold heart and calculating mind are what bind the Greek god Hades and German assassin Adolf Hitler. When one compares the similarities by which they undertook their unrelenting wickedness, it is with little difficulty that one can draw myriad common denominators where these two historical characters are concerned. Hitler, in his self-prescribed superiority, sought to annihilate the entire Jewish population in an effort to cleanse the world of what he deemed as unworthy people; Hades, whose inherent powers afforded him the ability to inflict pain and misery on all who came into the underworld, relished this hegemony. Bibliography lists 8 sources.
