My interest in the 'refugee question' of the 1930s stemmed
initially from time spent as an undergraduate at Manchester
University, an interest which has been expanded, via a doctoral
thesis, to the writing of this book. In wri ting about the German
and Austrian refugees who fled to the Netherlands before the
country was occupied in May 1940, the main aim has been to re turn
the 'refugee question' of the 1930s into its pre-war context, a
context from which it has often been dragged to provide an
introduction to the events of the war period and the policies
carried out by the Germans in oc cupied Europe. A study of the
Netherlands provides the opportunity to look at refugees as a
whole, not just as Jews, social democrats or communists, and also
to examine the reaction and response of an European government to
what was essentially a unique problem. I take great pleasure in
recording my gratitude to the many people who have helped me in the
course of my work. To the Dutch Ministerie van On derwijs en
Wetenschappen and the Twenty-Seven Foundation for grants which
enabled me to spend time in the Netherlands completing the research
for this project, and to the British Acadamy for their financial
assistance with publication costs. The research for this book took
me to many libraries and archives in a number of countries."
