It explores the far-right backgrounds and continuing political activism of these displaced persons in Australia, adding to our knowledge of the development of Australian anti-communism in the 1950s. These individuals argued that they had been caught between National Socialism and Soviet communism. What might that have meant for their migration and resettlement trajectories? Beyond 'Nazi-hunting', what can this tell us about the challenge they posed to international and national forms, both in Europe and in Australia? This book demonstrates that fascist ideation could not only survive the war's end but that it continued to be transnational and transcultural. At the same time, anti-fascist protests and then the war crimes investigations of the late 1980s exposed problematic pasts, a legacy with which Australia is still reckoning. The text will appeal to those with an interest in the far right, Australian migration and refugee issues"-- |cProvided by publisher. 591 Record updated by Marcive brief record update service 24 June 2024 599 Shelved at 79-4-2 610 20 International Refugee Organization. 650 0 War criminals |xPolitical activity |zAustralia. 650 0 World War, 1939-1945 |xCollaborationists |zAustralia. 650 0 World War, 1939-1945 |xRefugees |zAustralia. 650 0 Reconstruction (1939-1951) |zAustralia. 650 0 Right-wing extremists |zAustralia |xHistory. 650 0 Fascism |zAustralia |xHistory. 651 0 Australia |xEmigration and immigration |xHistory |y20th century. 776 08 |iOnline version:Persian, Jayne. |tFascists in exile |dAbingdon, Oxon ; New York, NY : Routledge, 2024 |z9780429276880 |w(DLC) 2023036183 852 0 |breceiving |kShelved at 79-4-2
