This book explores the transnational dimensions of the Holocaust, focusing on the search for refuge by those who escaped Nazism and their subsequent arrival in Latin America, where they integrated into local societies and began shaping collective memories of their experiences. By broadening the geographical and linguistic scope of Holocaust studies, it provides a nuanced analysis of Latin America’s varied responses to this historical catastrophe. The book highlights the region’s reception of approximately 100,000 Jewish refugees and survivors, revealing significant disparities in government immigration policies. It also examines how integration processes unfolded differently: countries with established histories of migration tended to be more accommodating to Jewish newcomers compared to those with limited immigration traditions. Additionally, it investigates the diverse approaches to Holocaust memorialization in Latin America. In some countries, the Holocaust became a central framework or metaphor for addressing local histories of political and State violence. In others, its memory has remained peripheral, disconnected from national commemorative narratives. Organized into three thematic sections with fifteen chapters, this volume offers significant scholarly contributions to the field while opening new questions and research pathways for further exploration.
