6. Individualism
Anti-Semitism Correct Answer-1. Religious/Old Christian Anti-
Semitism: blamed Jews for the death of Jesus so wanted to hate them but
also wanted to keep them around in case a Jesus situation happened
again; based on FAITH (Jews were able to convert to Christianity and
then they were ok)
2. Modern Anti-Semitism: now based on race; it seemed as though Jews
were gaining = rights under the law, but it was actually a ploy to get
them associated with the Enlightenment: laws did not allow them in
typical professions, they now had to work in more modern professions,
and this is part of what got them associated with modernism; Jews
started to get blamed for the struggles of modernity and rationalization
3. Redemptive Anti-Semitism: ...
, Lebensruam Correct Answer-Germans thought they were justified in
invading and colonizing Eastern Europe because they were superior to
Eastern Europeans (to them, this was a scientific justification)
the belief that Germany and the Germans needed "living space" in
Eastern Europe; wanted to conquer Eastern Europe
Social Darwinism Correct Answer-the strongest and most ruthless
survive; "kill or be killed" mindset; life is the struggle for survival
Nazism Correct Answer-aimed for the creation of a new racial German
community under the leadership of one man
(must be pure; cleansed; racial hygiene)
Leadership Principle Correct Answer-under one man; believed that
democracy was part of the reason for all the problems and people
wanted one single person to be making all the decisions
Racial Hygiene Correct Answer-allowing only the fittest and strongest to
reproduce; killing physically/mentally disabled/ill or leaving them
untreated so only the fittest would survive
essentially weeding out the weak to create the strongest race possible
