Descripción:

Facing defeat over his budget, Brüning invokes Article 48 of the constitution, which allows the government to pass laws without Reichstag consent. It is the start of a slippery slope for failing German democracy, and the start of a period of rule by Article 48 decrees.

Boosted by the rising unemployment rate, the decline of centre parties, and a turn to both left and right extremists, the NSDAP wins 18.3 per cent of the vote and becomes the second-largest party in the Reichstag.
