Add article description


The Völkisch-Social Bloc ("Völkisch-Sozialer Block" or "Völkisch-Sozialer-Block" or "VSB" or "V-S-B") was a right-wing electoral alliance in post World War I Germany. Its philosophy was loosely aligned with that of the NSDAP (Nazi Party).[1]

Anton Drexler was elected in February 1924 to the Bavarian Landtag as a representative of the VSB. Artur Dinter was elected in February 1924 to the Thuringian Landtag as a representative of the VSB. He was expelled from the party in December 1924. Rudolf Jordan was active as a speaker for the VSB by 1924, though he was not a member.

Extensive discussion of the VSB and its role, as well as the roles of associated political parties (including the Nazis), in early 1920s German politics, can be found in David Jablonsky's work The Nazi Party in Dissolution: Hitler and the Verbotzeit, 1923-1925 (Routledge, 1989, ISBN 0714633224, 9780714633220).
