Abstract:
Toward the end of World War II, there were discussions between the Allies and anti-Nazi German émigrés, relating to the nature of the future democratic state. Most of the Germans did not mention the Jews at all, but some, although they opposed Nazi racism, made it clear that a return of Jews to Germany would be undesirable, since antisemitism would not immediately cease after the war and there would be much resentment if Jews were to become powerful in a democratic Germany. Among those who mentioned the Jews, some believed that they could be an official minority group and only opposed the return of the Ostjuden; some supported the return of upper-class liberal Jews only, since they would eventually assimilate; and some opposed the return of any Jews, claiming that all of them were power-hungry and that the German people would not tolerate Jews in their midst after the war. It is clear that the views of the latter, in particular, were affected by many decades of German antisemitism.
