Has scholarship shown that persecuted religious minorities have tended to be financially successful? Define economic success for a minority, and apply this to actual data on social conditions. For example, the large majority of Jews in Poland prior to WWII lived very precarious lives, while at the same time beeing thought of as financially succesful. I think Graeber in "Debt: the first 5000 years" makea similiar argument about the Jews in medivial England. |

What was the contemporary German public opinion on the Herero Genocide? Did you find any information about the reactions of the SPD? in the scandal about "Hänge-Peters" the SPD press played quite a role. Anything about them in your sources? |

What was the contemporary German public opinion on the Herero Genocide? The german wiki-page is more detailed, but doesn't go into public opinion either. I'll see if I can ask a historian friend of mine who worked on similiar topics. |

What are the safeguards in the German constitution of 1949 against dictatorship? Consitution of NRW (one state): "large cooperations in resource extraction are to be socialized, associations that abuse hteir economic power shall be forbidden" (Article 27, translation by me) - one example. |

What are the safeguards in the German constitution of 1949 against dictatorship? Well, the Nazi party profited greatly from large induustrial donors in it's early years, and german industry profited greatly from the war and from forced labour. There were also calls to split up the largest companies in steel and coal without nationalization. |

Is there a link between national debt/trade deficit and starting a war? I'm not sure about debt - but there's a marxist view that in capitalism capital always accumulates, which leads to falling profits. War is one way that this excess capital can be destroyed. Maybe Schumpeter is good theorist to google on the issue. Note that this is not yet a causation. |
