Abstract:
A detailed account, based on unpublished documents and the press, of the activities of Italia Libera, the Australian-Italian antifascist movement founded in 1942 by Italian immigrants and refugees, including many Jews. Mentions official Australian policy towards Italian and Jewish refugees. Refers, on pp. 61-62, to a statement by Melbourne's Archbishop Daniel Mannix in September 1943 reflecting the traditional antisemitic and anti-communist tendencies of the Australian Catholic Church.
