Nietzsche and the Nazis: A Personal View by Stephen Hicks

Synopsis
In this film - essentially a filmed lecture, rather than a documentary - Stephen Hicks looks at the ways in which the ideology of the Third Reich was influenced by the philosophical thought of Friedrich Nietzsche, arguing that the reason the Nazis were able to come to power in Germany is largely because of the groundwork laid by Nietzche’s philosophy, which enabled Hitler and his followers to justify their ideas.
