This international history uncovers an American security
program in which Washington reached into fifteen Latin American
countries to seize more than 4,000 German expatriates and intern
them in the Texas desert. The crowd of Nazi Party members,
antifascist exiles, and even Jewish refugees were lumped together
in camps riven by strife. The book examines the evolution of
governmental policy, its impact on individuals and emigrant
communities, and the ideological assumptions that blinded officials
in both Washington and Berlin to Latin American realities. Franklin
Roosevelt''s vaunted Good Neighbor policy was a victim of this
effort to force reluctant Latin American governments to hand over
their German residents, while the operation ruined an opportunity
to rescue victims of the Holocaust. This study makes a very
contemporary argument: that security measures based on group
affiliation rather than individual actions are as unjust and
ineffective in foreign policy as they are in law enforcement.
? Fresh topic, new information about US failure to rescue victims
of Holocaust ? Significant revision of historiography of US
relations with Latin America and Good Neighbor Policy ? Lessons for
post-911 treatment of non-citizens in wartime
