14733 - The History of the Nazi Party, 2 volumes - Dietrich Orlow Despite the fact that in 1933 the party changed from a dissident political faction to the governing body of a major industrialised state, Hitler retained an informal system of delegating political power to his close subordinates, and those individuals with access to him lacked the desire or the ability (or both) to convert the party's goals into a workable policy. Further, Hitler's tolerance of dissent amongst his supporters and his determination to avoid endangering his newly found power weakened the party's development into a strong, unified national organisation.
