Gleichschaltung [glish-shy-tung] - noun
1- the enforcement of standardization and the elimination of all opposition within the political, economic, and cultural institutions of a state
2- meaning "coordination", "making the same", "bringing into line", is a Nazi term for the process by which the Nazi regime successively established a system of totalitarian control and tight coordination over all aspects of society. The historian Richard J. Evans translated the term as "forcible-coordination" in his most recent work on Nazi Germany. Among the goals of this policy were to bring about adherence to a specific doctrine and way of thinking and to control as many aspects of life as possible. (Wikipedia) See "heil" images
