Dr Koontz and Rev Fisk spend this second episode on the collapse of empires discussing post-World War I Germany and the Hitler’s rise to power in the wake of the economic devastation imposed on Germany by the victors, and the consequential necessity of creating limits on the thinking of the populace to secure his position. Dr Koontz sees some parallels with America today in the form of unchecked economic inflation, rapid social and moral change, as well as the saturation of media.
