Völkische settlements

From ICWiki

Jump to: navigation, search

Völkische Settlements (Völkische Siedlungen) were a form of community in Germany in the early part of the 20th century, especially after the first World War.

Contents

Ideology:

Völkische settlements were based on ideas of german identity; german folklore, paganism, aryanism, "blood and soil" etc. As the Völkische movement developed, it became more and more anti-semitic and anti-communist. It was an important forerunner of National Socialism, which took over many of the Völkische ideas, in particular, that of the "national community" (Völksgemeinschaft).

Important völkische settlements:

The most well documented of these german settlements were Siedlung Donnershag, Heimland, Vogelshof, Wiesseloh.

Communities influenced by Völkische ideas:

Of already existing communities, Eden became more and more völkisch after the first world war.
