Tom Holland and Dominic Sandbrook open a multi-episode examination of the Nazis' rise, marking the 90th anniversary of Adolf Hitler's appointment as Chancellor on 30 January 1933. They survey competing explanations — Sonderweg, continuity from the Kaiserreich, Marxist and economic interpretations — and stress the mixture of ideas and material crises that enabled Nazism.
