Scope note
Refers to the styles that arose under or were influenced by the ideals of the German Nazi regime (1933-1945), particularly regarding inhabitants of Germany and elsewhere who were of what the Nazis considered the white race of ancient Germanic origin, excluding those of Jewish heritage. The ideas have earlier origins, in the 19th-century writings of Joseph-Arthur de Gobineau and others regarding what they perceived as the inferiority of certain races.
