Identifier	Thesis 1907
Author	Amundsen, Allan D., 1970-
Title	American progressive journals and the rise of Nazi Germany 1932-1933 / Allan D. Amundsen
Publisher	Central Connecticut State University
Date	2007
Resource Type	Master's Thesis
Notes	This paper is a study of the last years of the Weimar Republic and the rise to power of Adolph Hitler, and how these events were analyzed in four journals of public opinion in the United States. This thesis makes the argument that the journals of public opinion, Time, The Atlantic Monthly, The Nation, and The New Republic were either founded on, or adopted, the ideals of Social Reform Progressives, and reflected the values of this movement in their analysis of events in Germany between 1932 and 1934. The methods used to come to this conclusion were to first analyze events in Germany history between 1932 and 1934, in particular Hitler being named Chancellor of Germany, 'the night of the long knives", and the death of Paul von Hindenburg. The thesis then provides a brief analysis of the Progressive Era during the early twentieth century in the United States. The ideas of this era are then linked to the founders of the four journals of public opinion. By defining key elements of the Progressive Era and linking them to the founding of the publications, I was then able to analyze the publication's approach to Germany between 1932 and 1934 and conclude that they were reflecting their founder's progressive ideology. The conclusion was that while the journals focused on different concerns of the progressive era, they were all reflective of their Social Reformist beginnings when analyzing events in Germany between 1932 and 1934.
