National Socialism – Its Principles and Philosophy

Since the postwar period a truthful and transparent approach to National Socialist ideology has always remained elusive. The most common approach is to pass off National Socialism as a movement without ideological substance, which merely reacted to events, took advantage of political upheavals and, in some mysterious way, hypnotised the masses with the hysterical rhapsody of anti-Semitism. Thus National Socialism has been stereotyped as a creed as baseless as it was incoherent.

This book seeks to shed light on the principles and philosophy of National Socialism, and what it meant to the millions of Europeans who gave their lives to its ideals and creed. Contrary to popular opinion, Hitler’s and the National Socialist ‘Worldview’ was not based on ‘anti-Semitism’ – the Jewish question was at best a minor irritant to the Third Reich. It had nothing to do with ‘mysticism’ or the ‘occult’, and it certainly did not promote the idea that the people of Germany were a ‘Master Race’. The National Socialist Worldview was based on far deeper and timeless principles which existed long before the creation of the Third Reich, and which will remain long after mankind has ceased to exist.

Seventy years of lies and simplifications must be left behind in order to understand the principles that underpinned National Socialist ideology. This well researched, and thoroughly referenced book from the original documents, is an invitation to those adventurous spirits willing to examine pages censured by official historiography. Uncovering the truth about the ideological foundation of National Socialism, with an open mind, will be a rewarding and enlightening experience – even for many of its political opponents.
