Les déportés 2/8 : La déportation

Mein Kampf, written by Adolf Hitler while he was imprisoned following the failed Beer Hall Putsch in 1923, is a two-volume work that combines autobiography and political treatise. The book details Hitler's early life, his experiences during World War I, and his increasing antisemitism and militarism. It outlines his vision for Germany, including the need for Lebensraum (living space) in Eastern Europe, and his racist and anti-Semitic views. The work became the central text of National Socialism and a blueprint for Hitler's policies, including aggressive foreign policy and the persecution of Jews and other minority groups.

In this work, John Stuart Mill argues for the importance of individual liberty, particularly the freedom of thought and discussion. He posits that even unpopular opinions should be given a chance to be expressed because they may contain elements of truth. Mill emphasizes that liberty is essential for societal progress and that it should be protected from both legal and social coercion. He advocates for the freedom to think, act, and organize as one wishes, as long as these actions do not harm others. The work is grounded in utilitarian philosophy, arguing that protecting individual liberties leads to a happier and more free society by limiting social stagnation.
