Description

Ein gutes und sauberes Exemplar. - Refugee policy between 1933 and 1950 has for some time occupied a central position in Swiss historical research. The discussion about �heirless property�, which stood at the center of the current debate, revealed however that the financial and property law aspects of Swiss refugee policies had received negligible attention. Moreover, the circumstances surrounding the expulsion of refugees and the living conditions of the refugees who were granted asylum required clarification. This report provides an overview of current knowledge about Swiss refugee policies in chapters 1-3. Chapter 4 focuses on the flight, expulsion, and acceptance of refugees, as well as the living conditions of those admitted into Switzerland. Chapter 5 examines financial and property law aspects and Chapter 6 concerns the humanitarian policies of the Swiss government. ISBN 3908661072
