The Weimar Republic and the Rise of Nazi Germany. The unit examines the dynamic, complex history of the Weimar era in Germany and interwar Europe more generally, including case studies on Essen, Berlin, and Munich. It offers insights that help explain the rise of Nazism, political and economic shifts before and after World War I, and social and cultural changes of 1920s and 1930s Germany.We’ll discuss the core skills addressed in the unit including developing historical empathy, analyzing historical evidence, and constructing effective historical arguments. We’ll also highlight a wide range of sources, including data, maps, images, personal narratives, and videos.
