Full event details

National Socialism was not just just an evil ideology -- it was an evil ideology that had to be sold to the German people. This lecture looks at the way in which the Nazis painted a picture of Hitler as both man of the people and saviour of Germany. The populist principles underlying this marketing strategy are then explored further through a compare-and-contrast with some election posters used by today's right-wing populist Alternative für Deutschland party.
