Share View PDF | Print View | Views: 573 |

Coup- Hardly any

• None in first 10 years of rule
• Only in the last year, when the effect of war was causing the regime to collapse

 

Underground Resistance and Opposition - Not a lot

• Anti government leaflets
• Pastor Gruber helped Jews
• Sabotage
• Church resistance

 

Passive resistance and non-cooperation

• People refused to join the party
• People refused to 'Heil Hitler'
• Underground political meetings were held

 

Private Grumbling - Widespread

• Not in public
• Anti Nazi jokes

 

Why didn't grumbling become open opposition

• Germans were afraid
• Opposition was divided
• People did not know what was going on
• People were pleased with the Nazis
• Quibbles were minor
• Nazis did drop unpopular policies
• 'We did vote for them'
• No organized opposition
