The first part of the article recapitulates some aspects of National Socialist policy and economic ideology, in particular the project of a "Germanised" Europe and a racial "Greater Germany". Antisemitism is an important factor in this context. The second part of the article then considers three features of the Swiss state of affairs in terms of how the National Socialist ideology of Lebensraum was perceived: military matters, economic issues and attitudes towards refugees.
