The 100 Days Project
During the highly contentious political climate in this country, the terms “fascism” and “Nazi Germany” have been used quite freely by both sides of the political spectrum. As a response to this and in an effort to provide some clarity of what fascism in Nazi Germany actually looked like, we at the Emory University German Studies Department initiated a research project in the spring semester 2017 that aimed to document the first 100 days of National Socialism - from the day that Adolf Hitler was named Reichskanzler on January 30, 1933 until May 9, 1933.
The general plan for our project was that our research team would work its way through the 100 days, investigating primary sources in German and documenting the events of each day and then posting the findings on a daily basis for public consumption. During the spring semester 2017 as the research was taking place, there was also a physical display of our findings for each of the first 100 days in the Emory University Student Center.
