How did the Munich Putsch effect the NSDAP? Story Sources Scholarship “The Bavarian Ministry is removed. I propose that a Bavarian government shall be formed consisting of a Regent and a Prime Minister invested with dictatorial powers. I propose Herr von Kahr as Regent and Herr Pohner as Prime Minister. The government of the November Criminals and the Reich President are declared to be removed. I propose that, until accounts have been finally settled with the November criminals, the direction of policy in the national Government be taken over by me. Ludendorff will take over the leadership of the German National Army, Lossow will be German Reichswehr Minister, Seisser Reich Police Minister.... I want now to fulfil the vow which I made to myself five years ago when I was a blind cripple in the military hospital: to know neither rest nor peace until the November criminals had been overthrown, until on the ruins of the wretched Germany of today there should have arisen once more a Germany of power and greatness, of freedom and splendour.” A Source A: Adolf Hitler, speech made at the Burgerbraukeller (8th November, 1923) . B Historian William L. Shirer in his book The rise and fall of the Third Reich (1960) “Hitler had planned a putsch, not a civil war. Despite his feverish state of excitement he was in sufficient control of himself to realize that he lacked the strength to overcome the police and Army”. Shirer also examines Hitler’s words at his treason trial (speech): “The putsch, even though it was fiasco, made Hitler a national figure and, in the eyes of many, a patriot and a hero. Nazi propaganda soon transformed it into of the great legends of the movement…no German seemed to recall, …the men whom Hitler had abandoned to their dying when he had picked himself up from the pavement and ran away.” Historian Stephen J. Lee on the Post-putsch strategy of NSDAP: “The failure of the Munich putsch had shown that violence alone was unlikely to succeed; the best course; therefore, would be to participate in regular politics”.
