520 1 $a"This book examines the ways in which officials co-operated in the implementation of legal measures against the Islands' Jewish community and their property. Resident Jews were registered by Island authorities and lists of Jewish property were compiled and submitted to the Germans by local lawyers, and bureaucrats. Jews were banned from employment and from appearing in public. Businesses were 'Aryanized'. Wireless sets were confiscated because their owners were Jewish, and many residents were deported.
520 8 $aThroughout, the daily implementation of these anti-Semitic measures was placed in the hands of local islanders.".
520 8 $a"Based on a thorough review of Island archival material and previously unknown evidence, this book offers the first jurisprudential and legal analysis of the moral and legal failures of law and lawyers to combat Nazi legality on British soil.
520 8 $aCases in which Jewish interests and individuals were protected by the intervention of locals are recorded, and throughout the factual record is compared and analyzed in light of the ethical norms which lawyers and government officials themselves claimed to be upholding.".
520 8 $a"A study is also made of the ways in which the collective memory in the Islands has been constructed so as to ignore and obfuscate the fate of Jews in order to combat more general assertions of 'collaboration'. This conflation of 'collaboration' and the issue of fate of the Jews has not just distorted the historical record, but also echoes many of the elements which may have led to the ease with which Island officials implemented legalized anti-Semitism."--BOOK JACKET.
