The increasingly vibrant political culture emerging in Lebanon and
Syria in the 1930s and early 1940s is key to the understanding of
local approaches towards the Nazi German regime. For many
contemporary observers in Beirut and Damascus, Nazism not only
posed a risk to Europe, but threatened to take root in Arab
societies as well. In the first publication to reconstruct Lebanese
and Syrian encounters with Nazism in the context of an evolving
local political culture and to base its analysis on a comprehensive
review of Arab, French and German sources, Goetz Nordbruch examines
the reactions to the rise of Nazism in the countries under French
mandate, spanning from fascination and endorsement to the creation
of antifascist networks. Against a background of public discourses,
local politics and the shifting regional and international
settings, this book interprets public assessments of and contact
with the Nazi regime as part of an intellectual quest for
orientation in the years between the break-up of the Ottoman Empire
and national independence.
