Völkisch-Social Bloc
 | This article relies largely or entirely on a single source. (February 2022) |
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 Landtag of Bavaria as a representative of the VSB. Artur Dinter was elected in February 1924 to the Landtag of Thuringia as a representative of the VSB. He was expelled from the party in December 1924. Christian Mergenthaler was elected to the Württemberg Landtag in May 1924 as a representative of the VSB. Rudolf Jordan was active as a speaker for the VSB by 1924, though he was not a member. From 1923 to 1925, Josef Wagner was also a member of the VSB in Westphalia.
