Una historia de la colaboración de Argentina y el peronismo con el escape de los nazis a argentina, con la ayuda del Vaticano y hasta la vista gorda de los aliados una vez iniciada la guerra fria. La conclusión es que argentina ya era totalitaria antes del aporte nazi ( ) Uki Goni, whose both father and granfather were Argentine Ambassadors, has written a well researched and written thorough account of the Peron Regime's support and collaboration with the Nazi Party. The true story has been hidden by Argentine authorities for over 50 years. Through pain staking research, Goni sort out resources from Argentina , Europe and the USA to build a strong case against Peron. He also directly implicates the Vatican at its highest power in helping to shepherd Nazi criminals to Argentina. Their willingness to overlook crimes to humanity were overwhelmed by their own anti-semitism and fear of the "godless" Communists taking over Eastern Europe. Unfortunately, as he states in the afterward, Argentina still denies the connections he has unearthed. A great example of brave journalism and history. An important book for anyone interested in World War II, the Holocaust, Argentina and justice. Dopo la confitta di Hitler, numerosi gerarchi nazisti trovarono rifugio in Argentina: criminali di guerra come Eichmann, Barbie e Mengele, passati per Genova tra il 1949 e il 1951, ma anche Friedrich Rauch, l'ufficiale che aveva vuotato per conto del Fuhrer la Banca cenrrale tedesca. Lungo "la rotta dei topi" fuggirono anche ustascia croati, collaborazionisti belgi e filo-nazisti francesi. A organizzare la fuga era la misteriosa ed efficiente "Organisation der ebemaligen SS-Angeborigen", nome in codice Odessa. A book on an area I knew little about, so very enlightening. However, the vast number of people mentioned can make this very confusing and difficult to follow at times. It may have been better to make more use the illustative example style of the last few chapters where a specific person is dealt with and how they escaped to Argentina, rather the main part of the book where the different routes are described in detail. I found this book a bit disjointed, but certainly worth reading for the insights Goni offers about his country and the fleeting period between the end of World War II and the start of the Cold War in earnest. The wisdom that Goni has to bestow on his countrymen is that the influx of the dregs of fascist Europe did not corrupt Argentina. Corruption was already waiting for these mostly B-List fascists in the form of the Peron regime, with its delusions of grandeur and obsessions about American imperialism. Let's just say that no one comes out of this story very well, particularly the Catholic Church; the great enablers in this whole enterprise. This book should also probably not be the first book you read about 20th-century Argentina; maybe the second or third. That said, Goni tells an interesting story and as an archivist I found his vision of the mismanagement of the Argentinian archives sadly amusing. sem resenhas | adicionar uma resenha
It has long been known that Adolf Eichmann, Josef Mengele, Erich Priebke and many other Nazi war criminals found refuge in Argentina. In this book, a courageous Argentinian writer shows exactly how it was done, and reveals that the escapes were organized with the enthusiastic support of President Juan Peron. Even at this late date, when so much is known about the complicity of the Catholic Church and Allied intelligence agencies in the flight of the Nazis, Goni's material still has the power to shock. The paperback edition of The Real Odessa includes a revised introduction and conclusion, with a new afterword containing material that Uki Goni has recently researched and which focuses on Vatican complicity in providing sanctuary for war criminals.
