Um advogado britânico acusa o governo alemão de violar a Constituição do país ao se recusar a conceder cidadania a milhares de descendentes de vítimas do nazismo. Ele argumenta que a lei começou a ser mal aplicada sob a influência de ex-nazistas nas décadas de 1950 e 1960 — e que continua sendo aplicada até hoje de maneira equivocada.

New Zealand’s first official refugees were today welcomed back to Pahīatua, the town that took them in 75 years ago.
A total of 733 Polish children, escaping the atrocities of World War Two, arrived in the Wairarapa town on 1 November 1944.
The word originally referred to the Huguenots .
Refugee comes from a tangled web of related words, and though they show a certain family resemblance, these words are also fiercely independent. Their shared roots go all the way back to Latin, but refugee came directly from the French word réfugié with a very specific meaning: it referred to Protestants who fled France following the revocation in 1685 of the Edict of Nantes, the law that granted religious liberty and civil rights to the Protestant Huguenots for nearly a century. Over 400,000 French Protestants left France in the following years, many to Protestant England.

In 1972, or so the story goes, an important man had a dream. Not an inspiring dream like Martin Luther King, but a vision that would spark one of the cruellest episodes of the 20th Century.
The man was General Idi Amin, ruler of Uganda in Africa. The dream itself – where he was told by God to cleanse his country of foreigners – may just be an urban myth spread by his supporters, but his actions were real. Out of the blue he ordered all people of south Asian origin to be expelled from the country, or face concentration-style camps.
In 1956 and 1957, Canada received more than 37,500 refugees who fled Hungary after Soviet troops marched on Budapest to crush a revolution that sought political reform and independence from the Soviet Union. Spurred by popular sympathy, the Canadian government acted quickly to select, transport, and resettle people in cooperation with non-profit organizations; a successful and unprecedented process which later established an important model for the reception of future refugees to Canada.

Más de 120 barcos canarios ilegales cruzaron el Atlántico entre 1948 y 1952 en búsqueda de una vida más próspera. Los últimos supervivientes relatan un viaje lleno de penurias, sin agua ni comida y a merced de los temporales. Debían pasar la cuarentena en La Orchila, pero en pocos meses ganaban ‘fortunas’ y se adaptaban con gran facilidad al país donde ‘todo era demasiado barato’.
“Quando uma crise de refugiados sírios se alastra pela Europa, importa esclarecer o público sobre quando os refugiados éramos nós próprios, os portugueses”.
