Because they were anti-capitalist as well as anti-communist. The Nazi's felt that both capitalism and communism exploited workers. They favored a third position, which had some of the economic control of communism, but also some of the economic freedom of capitalism. The Nazis economic goal was to support workers (who were of the proper "blood")--the same goal as actual socialism--but without the massive governmental controls prevalent in socialism. The "socialism" part of the name, therefore refers to the social welfare aspect of their party (for those of the correct race), rather than the actual economic system. If you were to view modern-day social democrats on a political compass with the Nazis, you would find that they would be relatively close on the economic axis (although extremely far apart on the other axis). |

Adolf Hitler, then a corporal in the German army, was ordered to spy on the DAP in September 12th 1919 during one of its meetings at the Sterneckerbräu, a beer hall in the center of the city. While there, he got into a violent argument with one guest. Following this incident, Anton Drexler was impressed with Hitler's oratory skills and invited him to join the party. After some thinking, Hitler accepted the invitation and joined in late September. After giving his first speech for the Party on October 16th in the Hofbräukeller, Hitler quickly rose up to become a leading figure in the DAP. The small number of party members were quickly won over to Hitler's political beliefs. In an attempt to make the party more broadly appealing to larger segments of the population, the DAP was renamed on February 24, 1920 to the National Socialist German Workers' Party. The name was borrowed from a different Austrian party active at the time (Deutsche Nationalsozialistische Arbeiterpartei, German National Socialist Workers' Party), although Hitler earlier suggested the party to be renamed the "Social Revolutionary Party"; it was Rudolf Jung who persuaded Hitler to follow the NSDAP naming. Hitlers Ideals reshaped the DAP into the NSDAP. The new ideals and new philosophy made the name change necessary. |
