Hitler's World View - as in ideology? I'm taking a massive stab here but Gleichschaltung? I know that means forcible coordination but still...
Components (I'm going with ideology here...)
1. Anti-semitism
2. Creation of a Herrenvolk
3. Solid and aggressive foreign policy
4. Strong German nationalism
5. Lebensraum
6. Autarky
And regarding Hitler and Speer's relationship, they probably weren't gay, but some historians speculate that they were. But who knows? I think its just that whole best-friend frustrated-architect thing that makes em say that. Hitler could have had suppressed feelings are whatnot because, after all, he was nuts.
Question: List four opposition groups from 1933 onwards and a basic background of who they were and what they believed in.

The Socialists - most were locked up by the time Hitler ascended to power in 1933 but a few remained underground and distributed pamphlets and books of an anti-nazi nature. Their opposition to Hitler was based upon ideological grounds and disgust at the persecution of the Jews
Youth Opposition - A notable group would be the Edelweiss Pirates. They objected to the rigid indocrination and discipline required in the various Nazi youth groups. Their defiance was shown through street battles with the Hitler Youth and the distribution of anti Nazi leaflets.
Student Opposition - This would be the White Rose. The groups' founders were Hans Scholl and his sister Sophie. Other notable members were Christopher Probst and Willi Graf. The members of the White Rose were prompted to Nazi opposition because of the lack of personal freedom in Nazi Germany. The group made public, information concerning the actions of the Nazis, including the fate of the Jews in death and concentration camps in Poland. The leaders of the group were finally arrested in February 1943, tried in a People’s Court and executed.
The conservative and military classes - One of the most important groups in conservative opposition was the Kreisau Circle. The group was loyal to old Germany and the system of a ruling monarchy. The main aim of the Kreisau Circle was to restore personal freedom and the rule of law throughout Germany. The Gestapo discovered the Kreisau Circle in 1944 and the main leader; Helmuth von Moltke was arrested and executed. Despite this, the Circle continued to meet and discuss their idealistic views of a post Hitler government and eventually, many of the members would play a role in the July 20 Plot to kill Hitler.
The resistance against Hitler from within conservative and military circles culminated in the failed assassination attempt on Hitler’s life, which took place on July 20 1944. The leader of the plot was Claus von Stauffenberg. The plan was to place a time bomb near Hitler during a military meeting in East Prussia. Surprisingly, Hitler survived the bombing. Stauffenberg was arrested in Berlin soon after and along with his three main co – conspirators were executed by a firing squad the same night.
What is the idea behind the concept of Eugenics?

With CandyPants reply, I was thinking bout Hitler's World View as being "Weltanschauung", which is basically ideology. The components of this world view were:
-nationalism
-anti semitism
- social darwinism
-democracy and the state
-The leadership principle (Fuhrerprinzip)
-Propaganda and Control
-The quest for Living Space (Lebensraum)
neway ur answers were plausible (and essentially the same)
btw wot is herrenvolk?
Eugenics is a study of how controlled selective breeding can improve the human race...I guess the idea behind eugenics is social darwinism...wots the correct answer?
neways heres my question:
Which social groups supported or embraced (at least a few ideologies) of the Nazis
-nationalism
-anti semitism
- social darwinism
-democracy and the state

Did you have to cap the first letter of every word to typed to make your statement?
That is true, but the syllabus classifies Nazi Opposition involving the Christian Churches as a form of resistance, and, as we all know, the syllabus sometimes doesnt look at the whole view. So take a chill pill.

The effect on groups:miss-teek said:
1. The workers had no place in Nazi ideology, except for them to be the backbone of the economy. They lost their Trade Unions and right to strike; also had to suffer frozen wages and longer hours but neverthless got more annual holidays via "Strentgh through joy" and "Beauty of work" and there was less unemployment.
2. Women were turned into voluptous Aryan Mothers under Nazi ideology, expected to stay at home and have lot's of babies
3. The Youth were indoctrinated via the Hitler Jugend/ Bund Deutscher Madel and thus practically lost their freedom of self/ mind/ voice
4. The Jewish community severly lost their status. They suffered violent attacks, boycott of businesses, and eventually systematic killing under Nazi ideology (Anti-Semitism)
German cultural life took a 360... no more church or traditional art
Um, what else? Violence was prevalent with the system of terror and the economy was turned into a war economy... ie. to prepare for the war.
I'd say they were some of the major changes. I've probably left some stuff out.
Name three events associated with violence/ terror and what the Nazis aimed to achieved by carrying them out.

Krisstaultuncht (?) - Night of Broken Glass
This was an attempt to remove the jews
The Night of Long Knives
Remove SA leadership - Rohm believed the SA should be the major police forece in Germany, whereas Hitler knew the army wouldn't allow it
Ummmmm...............I can't think of a third.
To what extent was Hitler's accession to power a result of Weimar Weaknesses?
