Carl Friedrich Gördeler |
Carl Friedrich
Goerdeler was among the leading politicians in the later years of the Weimar
Republic. In 1930 he was elected mayor of Leipzig. He was a member of the
DNVP but disapproved of its line of uncompromising obstruction and left the
party in 1931. He supported Chancellor Heinrich Brüning's system based on
presidential authority, served as Reich Prices Commissioner in Brüning's
administration in 1931-32 and his name was among those mentioned as possible
successors to Brüning (Goerdeler refused to join Franz von Papen's cabinet).
In 1934-35 he served once more as Reich Prices Commissioner, trusting his
own powers of reasoning and persuasion, if not the motives of those who
appointed him, to influence government policy. He acted from fundamental
ethical convictions, which made him appear optimistic, even naive, among
cynical politicians. He was guided by these convictions in his initially
open opposition to many of Hitler's policies and later in his leading role
in the underground conspiracy to bring down the dictatorship. He disagreed
with conspirators who believed they must kill the dictator, but he was
intensely active in the political preparations for a post-Hitler government
and in efforts to win British support for the aims of the German Resistance.
