Beschreibungen/Notizen

• The Nazi Party and the German Communities Abroad examines the German Nazi Party's actions around the world in the 1930s and 1940s. The book particularly focuses on the formation and development of the Auslandsorganization der NSDAP (AO) (Nazi Party/Foreign Organization), the party branch charged with the task of connecting with foreign fascist movements and, especially with Germans living abroad. The authors follow the creation of the AO and its development in Germany, along with its actions throughout the world, including Europe, Asia, Africa and North America, before finally focusing on Latin America. The Latin American case is then presented in both general and particular aspects, including countries such as Argentina, Chile, Brazil, Mexico and Colombia. The study draws on many primary sources and is extensively referenced; an index with 700 references related to the action of Nazism in the American continent is presented, including the American and Canadian cases. This volume will be of interest to researchers of the history of Nazism and Latin America. João Fábio Bertonha is a History Professor at the Universidade Estadual de Maringá, Brazil, and a Researcher at the National Council for Scientific and Technological Development (CNPq), Brazil. Rafael Athaides is an Associate Professor of Contemporary History at the Universidade Federal do Mato Grosso do Sul, Brazil.
