The 25-Point Program was the political manifesto of the National Socialist German Workers' Party (NSDAP), announced by Adolf Hitler and Anton Drexler in 1920. It laid out the ideological foundations of the Nazi movement and contained a mix of nationalist, socialist, and anti-Semitic elements. Here are the main points:
Unity of all Germans: We demand the unification of all Germans in a Greater Germany based on the right of self-determination of peoples.
Equal rights for Germans: We demand equal rights for the German people in its dealings with other nations and the revocation of the Treaty of Versailles and the Treaty of Saint-Germain.
Land and territory: We demand land and territory (colonies) for the sustenance of our people and the settlement of our surplus population.
Citizenship based on race: Only those of German blood, regardless of religion, can be citizens. No Jew can be a member of the nation.
Non-citizens to be treated as foreigners: Non-citizens are subject to the law of foreigners.
The right to vote: Only citizens can vote or hold public office.
State’s duty of welfare: The state must provide a livelihood for its citizens. If it cannot, foreigners (non-Germans) must be expelled to free up resources.
No further immigration: Immigration of non-Germans is to be stopped. All non-Germans who have entered Germany since 1914 must leave.
Equal rights and duties: All citizens must have equal rights and duties.
Abolition of unearned income: All income that is not earned through work (like from interest) must be abolished.
Profit-sharing in large industries: Profits made by major industries must be shared with the people.
Nationalization of industries: Large corporations must be nationalized to serve the common good.
Control of department stores: Department stores and businesses in the retail trade must be regulated and leased to small traders.
Land reform: Land needed for the common good must be confiscated. This excludes property belonging to small farmers.
No interest slavery: The government must nationalize all trusts and centralize the control of credit.
Expansion of the welfare system: We demand extensive development of old-age pensions.
A healthy middle class: We demand the creation of a middle class that is free from big business interests and monopolies.
State education: The state must ensure that all citizens receive higher education and the opportunity for advancement based on merit.
Protection of motherhood and childhood: The state must care for and protect the interests of mothers and children.
A healthy national body: The state must improve public health through physical education and sports.
Abolition of the mercenary army: The army should be a people’s army, and private mercenaries should be abolished.
Legal reform: Roman law, which serves a materialistic world order, must be replaced by German common law.
Press regulation: We demand legal action against lies spread in the press. Media owners who are non-German or spread anti-German content should be excluded from publishing.
Religious freedom: The freedom to practice religion is allowed, as long as it doesn’t endanger the German race or go against the moral sense of the German people.
A strong central government: We demand a strong central authority to uphold the principles of the program and enforce its implementation.
The program was a mix of aggressive nationalism, economic reforms, and social Darwinist ideas.
