Abstract:
States that despite protests against the Anschluss in Austria, participation in the Evian Conference, and president Lázaro Cárdenas' sympathy for refugees, Mexico was not an open place of refuge for Jews between 1938-40. Compares the attitude towards Jewish immigrants with the attitude towards Spanish republicans (who were more welcome), and argues that the authorities' inflexibility with Jewish refugees indicates a systematic anti-Jewish immigration policy within certain official circles, strengthened by the pressure of Mexican nationalists, such as the antisemitic National Revolutionary Party (PNR).
