They called themselves <a href="/wiki/Socialism" title="Socialism">socialists</a>, so should they be <a href="/wiki/Left-wing_politics" title="Left-wing politics">left-wing</a>?</dd> <dd><b>A</b>: Almost all historical and present-day academic literature places the Nazi Party on the far-right of the traditional <a href="/wiki/Left%E2%80%93right_politics" class="mw-redirect" title="Left–right politics">left-right spectrum</a>, which in turn is the most common short-form classification used in political science. The Nazis themselves attacked both left-wing and traditional right-wing politicians and movements in Germany as being traitors to Germany. While the Nazi regime's economic policies are very different from those of present-day right-wing parties that adhere to <a href="/wiki/Classical_liberalism" title="Classical liberalism">classical liberal</a> or <a href="/wiki/Neoliberalism" title="Neoliberalism">neoliberal</a> positions (which advocate, e.g., a highly deregulated, privatized economic environment), Nazi economic policy was typical of the early to mid-twentieth century far-right, and indeed most political currents of the time, in that it embraced interventionist economics. The Nazi Party absorbed the far-right reactionary <a href="/wiki/Monarchy_of_Germany" title="Monarchy of Germany">monarchist</a> and nationalist <a href="/wiki/German_National_People%27s_Party" title="German National People's Party">German National People's Party</a> into its membership in 1933. The Nazi Party also held good relations with openly right-wing political movements in Europe, such as the <a href="/wiki/Spanish_Confederation_of_the_Autonomous_Right" class="mw-redirect" title="Spanish Confederation of the Autonomous Right">Spanish Confederation of the Autonomous Right</a>, whose leader Gil-Robles was a guest at the 1933 Nazi Party Nuremberg rally and sought to model his movement upon the Nazi Party.</dd> <dd><b>Q</b>: If socialism is mainly left-wing and they called themselves socialists in their name, why is this being ignored?</dd> <dd><b>A</b>: Historically, several right-wing figures used the term "socialism" to mean something very different from what would be understood by traditional left-wing <a href="/wiki/Socialism" title="Socialism">socialism</a>, referring simply to the broader concept of collectivism and anti-individualism. The prominent French <a href="/wiki/Reactionary" title="Reactionary">reactionary</a> <a href="/wiki/Monarchism" title="Monarchism">monarchist</a> <a href="/wiki/Charles_Maurras" title="Charles Maurras">Charles Maurras</a> famously said "a socialism liberated from the democratic and cosmopolitan element fits nationalism well as a well made glove fits a beautiful hand". Maurras' views influenced <a href="/wiki/Fascism" title="Fascism">fascism</a>. <a href="/wiki/Oswald_Spengler" title="Oswald Spengler">Oswald Spengler</a>'s ideal of "<a href="/wiki/Preussentum_und_Sozialismus" class="mw-redirect" title="Preussentum und Sozialismus">Prussian Socialism</a>" directly influenced Nazism, and Spengler promoted it as a member of the far-right <a href="/wiki/Conservative_Revolutionary_movement" class="mw-redirect" title="Conservative Revolutionary movement">Conservative Revolutionary movement</a>.</dd> <dd><b>Q</b>: Were the Nazis actually a capitalist movement?</dd> <dd><b>A</b>: The answer depends on the context and definition of capitalism. Ideologically, Hitler in private was just as opposed to the ethos of capitalism as he was in public as a politician; he regarded the capitalist ethos as being self-centred individualism that was incompatible with nationalism. Furthermore, in both public and private Hitler regarded capitalism as being created by the Jews for their own interests. The Nazis in public and in private held contempt for <a href="/wiki/Bourgeoisie" title="Bourgeoisie">bourgeois</a> culture in liberal capitalist societies - as they associated such bourgeois culture with a cosmopolitan, liberal, and <a href="/wiki/Decadence" title="Decadence">decadent</a> lifestyle that was incompatible with the Nazis' ideal of a nationalist martial ethic of disciplined soldiers who were collectively committed to the Fatherland above any individual interest. So, ideologically, Nazism held strong antipathy to capitalism. However, at the same time, Hitler and the Nazis endorsed private property and private enterprise and did not challenge the market economy, which was important to their accrual of power because it avoided antagonizing industrialists and aristocrats. The Nazis themselves claimed that "true socialism" did not involve the Marxian opposition to private property. But if capitalism is defined in a minimum way as involving the support of the existence of private property, private enterprise, and a market economy, then from that minimum definition, the Nazis could be considered as endorsing a capitalist economy.</dd> <dd><b>Q</b>: The proper English name for the Nazi Party is the National Socialist German Workers Party (German: <i>Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei</i> or NSDAP). "Nazi" is a slang term, so why does the article not use the proper name?</dd> <dd><b>A</b>: Because English Wikipedia uses the <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:COMMONNAME" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:COMMONNAME">common name</a> for things, and the common name for the NSDAP in English is the "Nazi Party".</dd></dl> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1237879475"><table class="box-Merge_from plainlinks tmbox tmbox-move" role="presentation"><tbody><tr><td class="mbox-image"><span typeof="mw:File"><span><img alt="" src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/0/0f/Mergefrom.svg/50px-Mergefrom.svg.png" decoding="async" width="50" height="20" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/0/0f/Mergefrom.svg/75px-Mergefrom.svg.png 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/0/0f/Mergefrom.svg/100px-Mergefrom.svg.png 2x" data-file-width="50" data-file-height="20"></span></span></td><td class="mbox-text">It has been suggested that <i><a href="/wiki/Talk:Nazism/FAQ" title="Talk:Nazism/FAQ">Talk:Nazism/FAQ</a></i> be <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Merging" title="Wikipedia:Merging">merged</a> into this page.
