Renordification
Renordification (''Aufnordung'' in German) was implemented in Nazi racial theories to counter the effects of what was termed the " denordification" of the mythical Nordic Indo-Germanic ancestors of modern Germans. Concept According to Nazi racial theorists such as Hans F. K. Günther and Walther Darré, the Germans, the main branch of the Indo-Germanic Nordic people, had undergone a process of denordification over the centuries. Even before taking power in 1933, the NSDAP developed a theoretical corpus designed to halt this process and strengthen the Nordic element within the Germanic Volk. An issue of debate within the NSDAP From the 1920s onwards, passionate debates were organized around this concept, which overlapped with those dividing the NSDAP around the original Indo-Germans. The main debate within the NSDAP revolved around the concept of race: after Otto Strasser's departure, supporters of the Nordic race, and thus of renordification, its corollary, gained ascend ...

Nordicism
Nordicism is a racialist ideology which views the "Nordic race" (a historical race concept) as an endangered and superior racial group. Some notable and influential Nordicist works include Madison Grant's book '' The Passing of the Great Race'' (1916); Arthur de Gobineau's '' An Essay on the Inequality of the Human Races'' (1853); the various writings of Lothrop Stoddard; Houston Stewart Chamberlain's '' The Foundations of the Nineteenth Century'' (1899); and, to a lesser extent, William Z. Ripley’s '' The Races of Europe'' (1899). The ideology became popular in the late-19th and 20th centuries in Germanic-speaking Europe, Northwestern Europe, Central Europe, and Northern Europe, as well as in North America and Australia. The belief that Nordic ancestry is superior to all others was originally embraced as " Anglo-Saxonism" in England and the United States, "Teutonicism" in Germany, and "Frankisism" in Northern France. The notion of the superiority of the "Nordic race" ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Nazi Racial Theories
The German Nazi Party adopted and developed several Racial hierarchy, racial hierarchical categorizations as an important part of its racist ideology (Nazism) in order to justify enslavement, genocide, extermination, racism, ethnic persecution and other atrocities against ethnicity, ethnicities which it deemed Racial hierarchy, genetically or culturally inferior. The Aryan race is a pseudoscientific concept that emerged in the late-19th century to describe people who descend from the Proto-Indo-Europeans as a racial grouping and it was accepted by Nazi thinkers. The Nazis considered the putative "Aryan race" a superior "master race" with Germanic peoples as representative of Nordic race being best branch, and they considered Jews, Multiracial people, mixed-race people, Slavs, Romani people, Romani, Black people, Black People, and certain other ethnicities racially inferior Untermensch, subhumans, whose members were only suitable for Extermination through labour, slave labor a ...

Aryan Race
The Aryan race is a pseudoscientific historical race concepts, historical race concept that emerged in the late-19th century to describe people who descend from the Proto-Indo-Europeans as a Race (human categorization), racial grouping. The terminology derives from the historical usage of Aryan, used by modern Indo-Iranians as an epithet of "noble". Anthropology, Anthropological, Human history, historical, and Archaeology, archaeological evidence does not support the validity of this concept. The concept derives from the notion that the original speakers of the Proto-Indo-European language were distinct progenitors of a superior specimen of humankind, and that their descendants up to the present day constitute either a distinctive race or a sub-race of the Caucasian race, alongside the Semitic people, Semitic race and the Hamites, Hamitic race. This Taxonomy (biology), taxonomic approach to categorizing human population groups is now considered to be misguided and biologically m ...

Nazi Propaganda
Propaganda was a tool of the Nazi Party in Germany from its earliest days to the end of the regime in May 1945 at the end of World War II. As the party gained power, the scope and efficacy of its propaganda grew and permeated an increasing amount of space in Germany and, eventually, beyond. Adolf Hitler’s ''Mein Kampf'' (1925) provided the groundwork for the party’s later methodology while the newspapers, the ''Völkischer Beobachter'' and later ''Der Angriff'', served as the early practical foundations for later propaganda during the party’s formative years. These were later followed by many media types including books, posters, magazines, photos, art, films, and radio broadcasts which took increasingly prominent roles as the party gained more power. These efforts promulgated Nazi ideology throughout German society. Such ideology included promotion of Nazism, Nazi policies and values at home, worldview beyond their borders, antisemitism, vilification of non-German people ...

Denordification
According to Nazi theorists, denordification ( in German) is the racial counterpart of the political decadence experienced by peoples throughout their history. The concept was coined by Nazi theorist Alfred Rosenberg, based on his analysis of the decadence of Rome and Ancient Greece. Concept The term denordification refers to the dilution of Aryan, Indo-Germanic Nordic blood by the addition of non-Nordic populations to the Nordic race. Thus, according to Richard Walther Darré, it was the success of Semitic populations over the Aryan race that marked the beginning of the denordification process. In his view, it was also through the loss of a sense of the dual expansionist dimension, both warlike and agrarian, that Germanic populations lost their specificity in relation to the semitic nomads. According to Nazi historian Ferdinand Fried, it was after the destruction of the Temple in Jerusalem that the Jewish people resorted to devious means to combat the Indo-Germanic constructio ...

Nordic Race
The Nordic race is an obsolete racial classification of humans based on a now-disproven theory of biological race. It was once considered a race or one of the putative sub-races into which some late-19th to mid-20th century anthropologists divided the Caucasian race, claiming that its ancestral homelands were Northwestern and Northern Europe, particularly to populations such as Anglo-Saxons, Germanic peoples, Balts, Baltic Finns, Northern French, and certain Celts, Slavs and Ghegs. The supposed physical traits of the Nordics included light eyes, light skin, tall stature, and dolichocephalic skull; their psychological traits were deemed to be truthfulness, equitability, a competitive spirit, naivete, reservedness, and individualism. In the early 20th century, the belief that the Nordic race constituted the superior branch of the Caucasian race gave rise to the ideology of Nordicism. With the rise of mode ...

Eugenics
Eugenics is a set of largely discredited beliefs and practices that aim to improve the genetic quality of a human population. Historically, eugenicists have attempted to alter the frequency of various human phenotypes by inhibiting the fertility of those considered inferior, or promoting that of those considered superior. The contemporary history of eugenics began in the late 19th century, when a popular eugenics movement emerged in the United Kingdom, and then spread to many countries, including the United States, Canada, Australia, and most European countries (e.g. Sweden and Germany). In this period, people from across the political spectrum espoused eugenics. Many countries adopted eugenic policies intended to improve the quality of their populations. Historically, the idea of ''eugenics'' has been used to argue for a broad array of practices ranging from prenatal care for mothers deemed genetically desirable to the forced sterilization and murder of those deemed unf ...
