CHAPTER 11 Jews and Non-Jews ..." ... "Buenos Aires, shtot mein Liebe, lch bin fadibt in dein tsebliter yugnt (Buenos Aires, beloved city, -I'mYi inddish love version with your of a flowering Carlos Gard youth I tango ) FOR LATIN Americans, the reality of Jewish life is obscured by mythol­ ogy. Only the dissipation of myth allows the reality of Jews and Judaism to MANY appear. Appar ntly, this happens more readily at the personal than at the societal I vel. The acceptability of Jews as marriage partn rs is wid spread, causing Jewish leaders to express more cone rn about assimilation than about anti-Semitism. Yet happy exogamous marriages exist sid by side with murder­ ous manifestations of race hatr d. Within Jewish spaces, b hind the symbolic walls of th kehillah, highly organized Jewish communiti s regulate the behavior of their members by excluding the intermarried, the criminal, and the politically radical. The politi­ cally correct clubs and synagogues and beneficent so ieties that result pr s nt to non-Jews the appearance of a p ople unifiedin character and goals. But th suave facade of country club life masks the abandonment of Judaism by those who do not find thnic allegiance compelling, as well as the emigration of others who desire to live a less circumscribed life as Jews. The numb r of Argentines who id ntify themselves as Jews has dropped by on -third in th past thirty years; across the continent, total numbers have decreased in this period from 550,000 to 377,000. In public spaces, Latino J wish entrepreneurs, academics, artists, and lite­ rati have experienced increasing success. As third and fourth generations accul­ turate, the social acceptability of Jews incr ases. In recent years, this has translated into wider acceptance of political participation by Jewish individuals. But acculturation has not diminish d the hostility directed at J.ews by s ctors of the military and the church, which emerges in extreme forms when these sectors attain political dominance. No wonder then that the texture of relations between Jews and non-Jews 251 252 JEWS AND THEIR WORLDS in Latin America continues to puzzle observers. Dichotomies of attra tion and r pulsion, marginalization and integration, assimilation and particularism, anti­ Semitism and philo-Semitism animate the literature on Latin American Jewry. Conclusions that may be valid for one country may rightly be challenged if applied to another. Argentina is not Brazil is not Nicaragua. This chapter attempts to interpret the nature of the relationship betw n Jews and non­ Jews in Latin America. Because the largest Jewish population is to b found in Argentina and this community hasb en the most intensively studied, atten­ tion is first focused there. Argentina: Attraction and Repulsion The most obdurate anti-Semitism is that which1 d rives from the conviction thatnacionalismo, Judaism ls a worldwide conspiracy aim d at d stroying Christianity and subjecting the world to domination by Jews. This b li f is c ntral to Argentine and it is practically impervious to reality-based evidence. At most, nationalists may harbor a differencepopulistas, of opinion as to whether the prop nsity to subversion isinte dilutedgralistas, by distance fromthe Jewish p ople and Judaism through intermarriage and assimilation. For assimilation r nders Jews ac­ ceptabl . For however, once a Jew, always a Jew, even if formal conversion has taken place. Both brands of nationalists reject the lib ral philoso­ phy that brought non-Catholics and non-Latins to Argentine shores, and both reject the multicultural society that is emerging from the immigration2 period. Their ideal is an organic soci ty overseen by a corporate state, and J ws, the ultimate nonconformists, are the sp cial targ t of their hostility. D spite the persistence of extreme anti-Semitic b liefs, it has b en said that Argentina as a nation never adopted an anti-Semitic policy. It is clear that, with the xception of laws and policies cone rning immigration, there has not been a systematic legislative effort to dis­ criminate against Jews in Argentina. But it is also worth noting that there was often room in the interstices of legislation for the administrative expression of anti-Semitism. For much of the period discussed [1930-83] Jews wer effectively excluded from certain ar as of official life. For example, there was not a single Jew in th middle or upper officer ranks, although both Chile and Brazil had Jewish generals. The for ign service was also ss ntially dos d to Jews. During the tenure of the military regime of 1943, many Jewish teachers were dismissed from their jobs. Under the military governments of 1966 and 1976 a gr at many Jews were3 removed from the civil servic posts and univer­ sity positions they had acquir d when the [ d mocratically elected] Radi­ cals were in power. Avni argues that the closest Arg ntina has come to adoption of an anti­ Semitic policy was when it r fused to admit Jewish refugees from Nazism. Catholic religious instruction in the public schools has b en another sensitive 253 Jews and Non-Jews area; while not explicitly anti-Semitic, it has allowed for the transmission of anti-Semitic ideas. Local legislation outlawing kosher slaughter or restricting the public use of the Yiddish language also shaped the Argentine J wish experience, although some of these measures were transitory:' It may b that discrimination, like beauty, is in the eye of the beholder. Perhaps Argentine Jews, like Mao Zedong's allegorical fish who do not know what water is, are so acclimated to high levels of free-floating anti-Semitism that they accept it as the natural order of things. As individuals and as a group, they accept limitations and discriminations that appear outrageous to North Americans as the cost of living in a Catholic society that partially excludes them, yet exerts a sweet charm over them. The romanticized story of the agricultural colonies has rooted them in the very earth of Argentina. Those who came to the city were mostly able to attain a satisfactory way of life. Criollo ways-the close-knit family ties, the intense intell ctual life of cafes and bookstores, the streets and restaurants filled with throngs of p ople until well past midnight-contrast d lightfully with dark memories of the old country or more recent impressions of chilly northern climes. There seemed to be no reason why life should not continue to unfold pleasantly into the indefinite future. This dream began to crumble in the fifties and sixties during the administra­ tions of two democratically elected presidents. It is part of the Argentine paradox that the viability of Jewish life in that country was brought seriously into question during the constitutional administrations of Presidents Arturo Frondizi (1958-62) and Arturo Illfa (1963-66)." Within the context of an ongoing economic crisis and tension between civilian and military forces, anti­ Semitic verbal and physical attacks escalated.

    THE SURVIVOR’S HUNT FOR NAZI FUGITIVES IN BRAZIL: THE CASES OF FRANZ STANGL AND GUSTAV WAGNER IN THE CONTEXT OF INTERNATIONAL JUSTICE by Kyle Leland McLain A thesis submitted to the faculty of The University of North Carolina at Charlotte in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in History Charlotte 2016 Approved by: ______________________________ Dr. Heather Perry ______________________________ Dr. Jürgen Buchenau ______________________________ Dr. John Cox ii ©2016 Kyle Leland McLain ALL RIGHTS RESERVED iii ABSTRACT KYLE LELAND MCLAIN. The survivor’s hunt for Nazi fugitives in Brazil: the cases of Franz Stangl and Gustav Wagner in the context of international justice (Under the direction of DR. HEATHER PERRY) On April 23, 1978, Brazilian authorities arrested Gustav Wagner, a former Nazi internationally wanted for his crimes committed during the Holocaust. Despite a confirming witness and petitions from West Germany, Israel, Poland and Austria, the Brazilian Supreme Court blocked Wagner’s extradition and released him in 1979. Earlier in 1967, Brazil extradited Wagner’s former commanding officer, Franz Stangl, who stood trial in West Germany, was convicted and sentenced to life imprisonment. These two particular cases present a paradox in the international hunt to bring Nazi war criminals to justice. They both had almost identical experiences during the war and their escape, yet opposite outcomes once arrested. Trials against war criminals, particularly in West Germany, yielded some successes, but many resulted in acquittals or light sentences. Some Jewish survivors sought extrajudicial means to see that Holocaust perpetrators received their due justice. Some resorted to violence, such as vigilante justice carried out by “Jewish vengeance squads.” In other cases, private survivor and Jewish organizations collaborated to acquire information, lobby diplomatic representatives and draw public attention to the fact that many Nazi war criminals were still at large.

Hussar, B.A., M.A. María Rosa Olivera-Williams, Director Graduate Program in Literature Notre Dame, Indiana March 2008 © 2008 by James A. Hussar CYCLING THROUGH THE PAMPAS: FICTIONALIZED ACCOUNTS OF JEWISH AGRICULTURAL COLONIZATION IN ARGENTINA AND BRAZIL Abstract by James A. Hussar My comparative study focuses on the negotiation of national, regional, religious, and ethnic identity in the works of four Latin American Jewish authors: Argentines Alberto Gerchunoff and Rebeca Mactas, and Brazilians Frida Alexandr and Adão Voloch. Each author uses collections of independent but interrelated short stories, or short story cycles, to fictionalize his/her experiences as a child growing up in Jewish agricultural colonies in Latin America in the late-nineteenth and early-twentieth centuries. I reevaluate the literary legacy of Gerchunoff, the father of Jewish Latin American literature, by showing how his canonical Los gauchos judíos (1910; translated as The Jewish Gauchos of the Pampas, 1955) offered a structural and thematic template for works by Mactas, Alexandr, and Voloch. This work is dedicated to my parents, Kenneth and Carolyn Hussar, who were my first— and best—teachers. It is also dedicated to my wife, Beatriz, and my sons, Gabriel and Camilo, for their love and support. ii CONTENTS ACKNOWLEDGMENTS................................................................................................... v INTRODUCTION............................................................................................................... 1 CHAPTER 1: LOS GAUCHOS JUDÍOS: A MODEL SHORT STORY CYCLE........... 17 1.1 What is a Short Story Cycle? ....................................................................

  • Manuel Sadosky – Recordando a Un Maestro
    Manuel Sadosky – Recordando a un Maestro Conocí a Manuel Sadosky hace casi sesenta años cuando se reincorporó como profesor a la Facultad de Ciencias Exactas y Naturales de la Universidad de Buenos Aires a fines de 1955. Yo promediaba entonces mis estudios en la Licenciatura en Química y participaba activamente en el Centro de Estudiantes de Química. Junto con los estudiantes de los dos otros centros que había entonces –de ciencias naturales y de física– compartíamos intereses y preocupaciones sobre la reconstrucción académica de la Facultad. Con aquellos objetivos comunes teníamos discusiones frecuentes con los profesores que regresaron a la Facultad durante el decanato interino de José Babini, entre los que se destacaban Manuel y Cora Sadosky. La participación como docente auxiliar en el nuevo curso de ingreso con características formativas, que se desarrolló durante el verano 1955/56, me llevó a establecer una relación directa con Manuel y Cora, quienes compartían una pasión por la enseñanza de las matemáticas. Luego, durante mis dos últimos años de facultad tomé con ellos cursos de matemáticas que me mostraron una manera distinta de ver las matemáticas, menos formal que las de los primeros cursos de álgebra y análisis, más vinculada con las aplicaciones. Manuel tenía alma de maestro, más allá de las matemáticas, siempre listo para dar consejos y recomendaciones. Recuerdo como en, su afán para ofrecer consejos y referencias, solía recurrir a sus anotaciones en una misteriosa libretita negra que guardaba siempre en algún bolsillo. Después de 1966 nos vimos menos frecuentemente. Yo fui a Chile y Estados Unidos durante los gobiernos militares de Onganía y Lanusse y Manuel se exilió en Venezuela durante la última dictadura.

Abstract. 1957 marked the beginning of modern education in computing in Argentina. I was lucky enough to live this part of the history. After issuing an international bid that year, all members of a special commission from the University of Buenos Aires selected the Ferranti Mercury computer to be purchased for the University. Once installed in 1961, an Institute of Calculus1 was created with the aim of improving the use and professional and technical applications of the machine. Almost at the same time, a new course of study was organized, the Scientific Computist2. Those three events, promoted by our teacher and mentor Manuel Sadosky, set the start point of education assisted by computers in our country. The work at the Institute covered three fields: problem solving, research and teaching. Several Working Teams were organized looking to solve “real problems” in different disciplines: Mathematical Economics, Operations Research, Statistics, Linguistics, Applied Mechanics, Numerical Analysis, Electronic Engineering and Programming Systems. The architecture, structure, operation, languages and other characteristics of the machine, quite advanced for the time, determined the specific area of each of the working teams.
