Answer:

Gestapo, abbreviation of Geheime Staatspolizei (German: “Secret State Police”), the political police of Nazi Germany. The Gestapo ruthlessly eliminated opposition to the Nazis within Germany and its occupied territories and, in partnership with the Sicherheitsdienst (SD; “Security Service”), was responsible for the roundup of Jews throughout Europe for deportation to extermination camps.

The Gestapo operated without civil restraints. It had the authority of “preventive arrest,” and its actions were not subject to judicial appeal. Thousands of leftists, intellectuals, Jews, trade unionists, political clergy, and homosexuals simply disappeared into concentration camps after being arrested by the Gestapo. The political section could order prisoners to be murdered, tortured, or released. Together with the SS, the Gestapo managed the treatment of “inferior races,” such as Jews and Roma (Gypsies). During World War II the Gestapo suppressed partisan activities in the occupied territories and carried out reprisals against civilians. Gestapo members were included in the Einsatzgruppen (“deployment groups”), which were mobile death squads that followed the German regular army into Poland and Russia to kill Jews and other “undesirables.” Bureau IV B4 of the Gestapo, under Adolf Eichmann, organized the deportation of millions of Jews from other occupied countries to the extermination camps in Poland.

How was judaism religion/belief system utilized to assert political authority and/or reinforce social hierarchies?
mixas84 [53]

The way that Judaism was used to assert political authority and/or reinforce social hierarchies was by intermingling the roles of religious leaders with political authority.

<h3>How was Judaism used to control politics?</h3>

Judaism was not just a belief system for the Jews that guided their religious life, it also guided their political life.

This is because the religious leaders in Judaism also had political authority. For instance, the King or Judge was someone who was appointed by God and so could speak to God.

This led to political authority being asserted with greater ease, and for social hierarchy to be maintained.
