In this paper, we show that it is untenable to hold that Jung was a “Nazi sympathizer” after May 1934. Jung went through a decisive transition from March to May 1934 in which he became warier of the Nazis. It remains possible, however, to argue that between January 1933 and February 1934 he either was or was not in some degree a Nazi sympathizer. From 1934 to 1936, he became still warier of the Nazis. By March 1936, his attitude toward the Nazis took a further turn: it was clearly more pessimistic than in 1935. Thus, Jung’s views of Nazi Germany changed from 1933 to 1936
