La captura del criminal de guerra nazi Adolf Eichmann en Buenos Aires en mayo de 1960 por parte de agentes del Mossad israelí desencadenó una ola de antisemitismo violento en Argentina y Uruguay, que a su vez provocó la consolidación de un marco de autodefensa judía que se conoció en Argentina con el vocablo hebreo Irgún (organización) y en Uruguay como Bitajón (seguridad), Misgueret (marco), o simplemente en vernáculo, La Orga. Numerosos jóvenes decidieron contrarrestar el fenómeno con métodos igualmente agresivos, defendiendo a las instituciones comunitarias y castigando a los hooligans antisemitas, mostrándoles que los judíos no serían ya víctimas pasivas. Este artículo analiza tres momentos en el desarrollo de la autodefensa judía en Uruguay: el secuestro de Eichmann y sus repercusiones; la ejecución del criminal de guerra letón Herberts Cukurs en Uruguay en 1965 por parte de agentes del Mossad, y el añadido de blancos árabes a sus operaciones, especialmente en los años posteriores a la guerra de 1967 en Medio Oriente. La historiografía existente hasta ahora se ha mantenido apartada del tema y por lo tanto, este artículo intenta llenar el vacío en cuanto a la historia de la autodefensa judía, enfatizando las características peculiares de la organización en Uruguay y resaltando la influencia del 1 Muchas personas me ayudaron a conseguir material relevante para esta investigación.

  • Key Findings Many European Union Governments Are Rehabilitating World War II Collaborators and War Criminals While Minimisin
    This first-ever report rating individual European Union countries on how they face up their Holocaust pasts was published on January 25, 2019 to coincide with UN Holocaust Remembrance Day. Researchers from Yale and Grinnell Colleges travelled throughout Europe to conduct the research. Representatives from the European Union of Progressive Judaism (EUPJ) have endorsed their work. Key Findings ● Many European Union governments are rehabilitating World War II collaborators and war criminals while minimising their own guilt in the attempted extermination of Jews. ● Revisionism is worst in new Central European members - Poland, Hungary, Croatia and Lithuania. ● But not all Central Europeans are moving in the wrong direction: two exemplary countries living up to their tragic histories are the Czech Republic and Romania. The Romanian model of appointing an independent commission to study the Holocaust should be duplicated. ● West European countries are not free from infection - Italy, in particular, needs to improve. ● In the west, Austria has made a remarkable turn-around while France stands out for its progress in accepting responsibility for the Vichy collaborationist government. ● Instead of protesting revisionist excesses, Israel supports many of the nationalist and revisionist governments. By William Echikson As the world marks the United Nations Holocaust Remembrance Day on January 27, European governments are rehabilitating World War II collaborators and war criminals while minimising their own guilt in the attempted extermination of Jews. This Holocaust Remembrance Project finds that Hungary, Poland, Croatia, and the Baltics are the worst offenders. Driven by feelings of victimhood and fears of accepting refugees, and often run by nationalist autocratic governments, these countries have received red cards for revisionism.

  • Latvia 2014 International Religious Freedom Report
    LATVIA 2014 INTERNATIONAL RELIGIOUS FREEDOM REPORT Executive Summary The constitution provides every person the right to “freedom of thought, conscience and religion” and specifies the separation of church and state. By law eight Christian religious groups receive rights and privileges that other groups do not. The government took steps to minimize societal manifestations of anti- Semitic sentiment and pursued cases of hate speech and vandalism. The Lutheran, Orthodox Christian, and Jewish communities continued to seek restitution of religious properties confiscated during World War II. Reports of societal discrimination based on religious affiliation, belief, or practice primarily centered on acts of anti-Semitism. Theaters across the country staged performances of a musical about the life of Herberts Cukurs, a pioneering aviator who later became a member of the Waffen SS during the Holocaust, events accompanied by non-violent protests and criticism from the foreign minister. The U.S. embassy engaged government officials on the importance of responding to concerns about religious intolerance and discussed with nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) and representatives of religious groups the role religious groups can play in promoting tolerance. The embassy sponsored a Holocaust education program for high school students. Section I. Religious Demography The U.S. government estimates the total population is 2.2 million (July 2014 estimate). There are over 30 religious groups present in the country and the Ministry of Justice reports the largest are Roman Catholics (22.7 percent), Lutherans (19.6 percent), and Orthodox Christians (15.3 percent). Smaller Christian groups include Baptists, Pentecostals, and other evangelical Protestant groups. The Central Statistical Bureau estimates that approximately 5,400 persons self-identify as Jews, while the Council of Jewish Communities estimates the Jewish population at between 6,200 and 11,000.

Orientadora: Profa. Dra. Marion Brephol de Magalhães CURITIBA 2018 Para Carem, minha esposa, e toda minha família. AGRADECIMENTOS A história de uma pesquisa, de uma tese, não se constitui apenas por seu escritor. Nesse longo trajeto de quatro anos, várias pessoas influenciaram diretamente para o desenvolvimento dessa narrativa, assim como a minha profissão de historiador: algumas com indicações de leituras pontuais, outras com orientações e debates acalorados, outras que compartilharam do seu tempo para escutar as minhas incertezas e reclamações sobre a pesquisa em momentos difíceis e que, certamente, deram-me força para seguir essa caminhada. Embora neste momento me esqueça de alguns nomes, gostaria de agradecer particularmente às pessoas que seguem. Especialmente gostaria de agradecer a minha orientadora, Prof. Dra. Marion Dias Brepohl de Magalhães, que me orienta desde 2011 quando ingressei no mestrado em História na Universidade Federal do Paraná. Desde então, auxilia-me com orientações atenciosas e pontuais, com leitura dos meus textos e com valiosos conselhos e sugestões. Agradeço por compartilhar comigo um pouco de seu profissionalismo e sabedoria enquanto historiadora, de sua história de vida e de sua amizade.
