In this short outline history of Hitler's foreign policy, Professor
Hildebrand contends that the National Socialist Party achieved
popularity largely because it integrated all the political,
economic and socio-political expectations prevailing in Germany
since Bismarck. Thus, foreign policy under Hitler was a logical
extension of the aims of the newly created German nation - state of
1871. Trading on his domestic economic successes, Hitler relied on
the traditional methods of power politics - backing diplomacy with
force. Had he pursued expansionist aims alone, using specific
lighting wars as threats or instruments of conquest he might have
been more successful. As it was, the scheme went awry when the
first phase - European hegemony - was overtaken by and forced to
run parallel with the second and third phases: American
intervention and 'racial purification'. The ideology became too
great a burden to bear, stimulating internal resistance, and the
Allies of course determined to wage total for a total surrender.
