Short description

A critical analysis of Mien Kampf, the doctrine of the NAZI regime in wartime Germany.

Extended description

Hitler's autobiographical book Mein Kampf, the official doctrine of the NAZI regime during WWII, is not a book that many would consider to read. Modern society is generally very well acquainted with Hitler and the ultimate outcome of his philosophical stances and will automatically denounce such notions based on a purely humanitarian and moral standpoint. The book remains illegal in many parts of the world (particularly Europe) and it rightfully considered one of the most powerful, destructive and divisive doctrines in modern history. While the book is often confronting in it's content it is still to my opinion an essential read because contained therein are the techniques of a master manipulator. It shows clearly that the doctrine of genocide-inducing hatred is not always - or even generally - a chaotic ramble of spiteful extremist verses but rather a considered and deliberate propagandist argument, one which at many points seems benign and even agreeable and always poses a compell..

I haven't read this yet, but I just wanted to say that the wrong word was used. It should be Mein not mien.

Review by: Gary Weston on July 28, 2012 :
I always wanted to read Mien Kampf. Not because I subscribe to any of the concepts, quite the opposite. I am opposed to any national feelings of superiority. However, isn't it important to understand why we feel certain things are abhorrent? Through study comes understanding and enlightenment. I am not going to believe every opinion stated in this book, but applaud the attempt to explain the rational of Hitler's thinking. Hitler was born in 1889, and yet here we are in 2012 and there are people who still see him as a figurehead. Why? What is so compelling about the man and his philosophy? Although I hate separatism and racism of any kind, I think any dissection of this ideology helps us with a fundamental insight into the human condition. Lets hate Mien Kampf, but understand why we hate it. I hope there is more to follow.
