Nazi ideology

German fascist doctrine

Nazi ideology was the political worldview of Adolf Hitler's National Socialist German Workers' Party, built on beliefs in Aryan racial supremacy, antisemitism, and territorial expansion.

It blamed Jews for Germany's problems, advocated eliminating "inferior" peoples, and promoted authoritarian nationalism under a single leader.

The ideology drove the Holocaust and World War II.

Today Nazi ideology labels any politics combining virulent racism with fascist authoritarianism.
