From the Paper:

"The Nazi Party claimed to be socialist, and in 1927, Hitler stated, "We are socialists" however, "By majority consent of both socialists and non-socialists, National Socialism and kindred movements are not considered to be socialist" (Neo pg). Nazi racial theories are regarded an anti-social (Neo pg). Hitler developed his political theories by observing the policies of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, under which he was born and was a citizen (Neo pg). Hitler believed though, that ethnic and linguistic diversity had weakened it and feared democracy as a destabilizing force because it placed power in the hands of ethnic minorities and had incentives that would further weaken and destabilize the Empire (Neo pg)."
