Since that time, scholarly debate has wrestled with multiple and complex issues. Did Nazism result from Germany's long-term pathological development, or was it the most extreme outcome of European modernity? Was terror the defining force of rule, or was popular consent critical to sustaining the movement? Were the German people sympathetic to Nazi ideology, or were they radicalized by social manipulation and powerful propaganda? Was antisemitism the driving force behind Nazism and to what extent did it mobilize the Third Reich? \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eA Companion to Nazi Germany\u003c\/i\u003e addresses these crucial questions with historical insight from the Nazi Party's emergence in the 1920s through its postwar repercussions.
