These essays reveal the role of British intelligence in the roundups of European refugees and expose the subversion of democratic safeguards. They examine the oppression of internment in general and its specific effect on women, as well as the artistic and cultural achievements of internees.

David Cesarani is Director of the Institute of Contemporary History and Wiener Library. Tony Kushner is Parkes Lecturer at the University of Southampton.
