| book description |
Aside from the prominent perpetrators such as Adolf Eichmann, Josef Mengele or Klaus Barbie, there were numerous other cases of Nazis and Nazi sympathizers from Germany and Austria who ended up in Latin America after 1945. Their life trajectories, professional activities, and contacts to local elites in their new homes have hardly been subject to systematic research to date. Their new lives in Latin America, their careers e.g. as diplomats, secret service agents or scientists are therefore a main focus of this volume. The biographies of these people and their networks are woven into the larger political, social, and scientific contexts of postwar Europe and Latin America, especially in the early Cold War period.""...its most notable achievement is shedding light on lesser known figures: scientists, university professors, government officials, diplomats, spies, arms dealers, businessmen, and even amateur Nazi hunters in South America."" Ernesto Bohoslavsky, Canadian Journal of Latin American and Caribbean Studies, April 2025
