E. JUNGER AND THE ASSERTION OF THE NAZI GOVERNMENT: AN INTELLECTUAL’S SURVIVAL STRATEGY DURING THE YEARS OF NAZI DOMINATION.
The article discusses the issues of developing a strategy of behavior and survival of an intellectual in the conditions of the Nazi dictatorship on the example of the German conservative thinker and writer Ernst Junger. The formation of the Nazi government in January 1933 marked the end of the deep crisis of the Weimar Republic in the early 1930s. As a result of the formation of Hitler’s Nazi-conservative coalition cabinet in the German state, the process of structural transformation of the state towards the Fuhrer state, assuming total control and management of the entire life of society, began. Under these conditions, the existence of an intellectual required a choice between conformity and nonconformism. The example of Ernst Junger, a well-known nationalist publicist, shows how non-trivial the ways of existence of a thinker can be in the conditions of the beginning regulation of public life and repression against opposition forces and ideas.
Keywords: Ernst Junger, Weimar Republic, National Socialism, intellectual choice, Nazi seizure of power, conservatism, conservative revolution.
