What existed in Germany during the time of National Socialism?
In the exam (German)
Was gab es während der Zeit des Nationalsozialismus in Deutschland?
- athe banning of partiesdas Verbot von ParteienCorrect answer
- bthe right to the free development of one's personalitydas Recht zur freien Entfaltung der Persönlichkeit
- cfreedom of the pressPressefreiheit
- dthe protection of human dignityden Schutz der Menschenwürde
Why?
In 1933 all other parties were banned or forced to dissolve; from July 1933 the NSDAP was the only party allowed. The free development of one's personality, freedom of the press and the protection of human dignity are fundamental rights in today's Basic Law (Grundgesetz) – they did not exist in the Nazi dictatorship. It is precisely because of this experience that human dignity is in Article 1 today.
