WHY WAS OPPOSITION SO INEFFECTIVE? Respect for Legality Underestimation Opposition had little in common Victims such as Jews were popular

After 1934 it was both difficult and illegal to resist the Nazi regime, however there was still opposition. Support for Hitler was strong and the initial polices were popular with larger society sectors Propaganda and repression reduced opposition Resistance during the 1930’s was not a major issue. It was disorganized and uncoordinated. The army and church did give some structure to opposition. Some people suggest the 300,000 people who left Germany and the 1.3 million sent to Concentration camps indicated a degree of opposition
