Summary
| Description |
English: This classified paper was written by Gustav Hilger for the Office of Policy Coordination of the Central Intelligence Agency on December 30, 1948. It was declassified by the CIA in 2005 pursuant to the Nazi War Crimes Disclosure Act.
In this paper, Hilger analyzes factors leading to the rise and fall of Hitler's Nazi regime in Germany. He the compared the Nazi regime with the Soviet regime under Stalin and identified aspects of Stalin's regime that, he argued, would weaken it relative to the Western Powers even before the death of Stalin. Hilger was well-placed to make these observations, having witnessed both Hitler and Stalin, and their regimes, up close. Gustav Hilger (September 11, 1886 – July 27, 1965) was a German diplomat and expert on the Soviet Union. Born and raised by German parents in Moscow, he was best known for his role in German-Soviet relations during the interwar period as a Counselor at the German embassy in Moscow. After World War II, he worked for the United States and West German governments consulting and advising on Soviet issues. Hilger worked under the CIA aliases Stephen H. Holcomb and Arthur T. Latter. |
