Define geopolitik and its importance to Hitler’s intentions of expansionism. Explain Professor Karl Haushofer’s geopolitical theory. Who was Haushofer and why was his geopolitical theory so compelling to Hitler? What was Haushofer’s connection to Adolf Hitler? Should this connection have been sufficient grounds for prosecuting Haushofer as a war criminal after WWII and putting him on trial? What ethical issues does the story of Haushofer raise for historians today?
