We were recently asked the following question:
I would like to know your opinions on women leaders within the Aryan society. I am also wondering what the parties stance is on the allocative efficiency within the soon to be Aryan society. Will goods be state-owned or will the economy be free-market based?
A fair and reasonable question. Here is our response:
You ask about women leaders in Aryan society. Coincidentally, this past week I have been reading through a newly acquired copy of Culture and Custom (Zucht und Sitte) magazine from 1943, a Nazi intellectual journal. Several writers in that issue comment on the role of women in Aryan communities. Today many on the right (National Socialists are not exclusively “rightist” in their views, that is an inaccurate trope) would have women return to “pre-feminist” roles. Frankly, and happily, the so-called good old days which would include women only when relegated back into exclusively reproductive roles are gone.
I could point to the obvious cases in Nazi history where women were placed in roles of authority, such as Leni Riefenstahl selected to film the most important propaganda film of the Nazi period, Triumph of the Will, or the fact that one of Hitler’s two personal pilots was a woman (Hanna Reitsch), or that the interior designer of Hitler’s private home on the Obersalzburg, the House of German Art, the New Reich Chancellery was the talented Gerdy Troost, etc etc etc.
As recorded in a French newspaper interview with Hitler in 1936, and in the journal recently arrived in my library, women were not masculine equalized objects, which modern feminism has made of them, but creators and protectors of civilization itself. If men and women are equalized in a feminist political sense, then men no longer retain any special regard for women as the focal point of social coherence. A woman is just one of the guys. Sexuality is reduced to impulse, to entertainment, rather than conscious social continuance. What should men defend? Their honor? That is ephemeral. Their progeny? Their collective heritage made possible ONLY by other presence of women in the social order? Yes. That means something.
George Lincoln Rockwell clarified it all; in one sentence: “Nazism says that women are absolutely equal to men. But they’re different. And thank god for the difference.”
National Socialism does not redistribute wealth, though excess greed and worker exploitation would be prohibited The socialism of the NS worldview is the folk community. You will find explanations of this concept on the ANP website. Socialism, real socialism, predates Marx. Robert Owens in England and the French socialists after the Revolution are the forbears of National Socialism. Free enterprise remains, exploitative capitalism is rejected. That is the essence of NS economics.
