Usually I thought I stood above such insults, and more often than not I actually made fun of the Nazis. I didn't take them serio

usly. I considered them funny little brown delinquents, more comic than dangerous. And that was a mistake too many of us made. Focusing mainly on their repulsive and obnoxious qualities, we failed to sense how dangerous the Nazis really were.
What did the author mean when she stated, “we failed to sense how dangerous the Nazis really were”?
Write a paragraph in which you explain this statement.


ANSWER:

The author, like many in Germany, thought that Hitler was just saying things to gain popularity, and to get elected. They didn't realize that once he was in office, the Nazis would create anti-Semitic laws that would persecute Jews. Even though Hitler made his true feelings known about the Jewish people in his book, Mein Kampf, most people did not think that he would send Jewish people to ghettos or commit genocide.

The author of the comment, Dorothea Schloesser, was herself ½ Jewish in her ethnicity.  She was also an entertainer (a singer), so she would be inclined to notice how dramatic Hitler was and how outlandish the whole Nazi movement at first seemed.  But she and others in Germany were not thinking about how deadly serious this movement and its outcomes could be.  Hitler and the Nazis led Germany into devastating global conflict (World War II) and carried out horrific atrocities against the Jewish people and others (the Holocaust).

All of the transactions that occur in connected markets across the economies of different countries create...
Yuliya22 [10]

The transaction that occurs between diverse industries across countries creates "a globalized economy".

Since the second half of the 20th century, trade between countries has suffered exponential growth. This is due to 2 reasons:

  • Some countries have more developed industries in certain fields. This is what effectively generates trade, as a country will import the goods it does not produce or lacks the conditions to do so.
  • Production factors such as raw materials or workforce are cheaper in certain countries. This has led companies to move their production to these latitudes.
