魏玛共和国是德国对民主政治的第一次尝试。它的失败原因，可以上溯到德国在第一次世界大战中的战败。由于战败，魏玛共和国自建立之日起，就是一个不受欢迎的畸形儿，潜伏着日后失败的隐患。在共和国短暂的生涯中，战败和随战败而来的有关问题犹如锁链一般，缠绕在共和国孱弱的身躯上，抑制着共和国的正常发育，直到其最后夭折。 The Weimar Republic is Germany’s first attempt at democratic politics. The reason for its failure can be traced back to Germany’s defeat in the First World War. As a result of the defeat, the Weimar Republic has been an unwelcome malformed child since its founding, hiding the potential for future failures. In the brief life of the Republic, the issues of defeat and defeat are like chains, wound on the weaker body of the Republic, inhibiting the normal development of the Republic until its last death.
