- Summary
- Ch. 3 (pp. 36-69), "Los anos de crisis en Uruguay, 1933-1939", deals with the negative influence of the dictatorship of Gabriel Terra on the life of the Jews in Uruguay. The liberal immigration policy of the country during the 1920s was replaced by a restrictive one, directed in particular against Jewish immigration. The new policy was based on profuse legislation, enacted and enforced in the 1930s, which provided the legal means to repel Jewish refugees, even when they had already arrived at the shores of the country. The ambiguous foreign policy of Terra, who was on good terms with the Nazi regime, created a favorable context for the increase of antisemitism in politics, as well as in civil society. Nazi activity flourished, an attempt was made to prohibit the public use of the Yiddish language, campaigns against Jews were carried out by the press and in parliament, and there were even physical attacks against Jews and Jewish institutions. This situation came to an end with the rule of Alfredo Baldomir, who took over government at the end of 1939.
