What was the biggest danger of giving injustice a legal form through Nazi laws?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Discrimination and persecution gained legal approval from the state
Nazi laws, especially the Nuremberg Laws, gave legal legitimacy to discrimination against Jews and other targeted groups. Persecution was no longer merely personal prejudice; it became state policy and could be used to deny people their rights. Options B, C and D describe democratic safeguards, not Nazi rule. Exam tip: when discriminatory policy becomes law, its main danger is that state repression appears lawful.
