FORMAT Paperback LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description During the 1930s, Germanys industrialization, rearmament, and economic plans taxed the countrys existing manpower, forcing the country to explore new ways of acquiring Aryan-German labor. Eventually, the Third Reich implemented a return migration program which used various recruitment strategies to entice Germans from Canada and the United States to migrate home. It initially used the Atlantic Ocean to transport German speakers, but after the outbreak of World War II, German civilians were brought from the Americas to East Asia and then to Germany via the Trans-Siberian Railway through the Soviet Union. Germanys attack on the Soviet Union in June 1941 ended this overland route, but some Germans were moved on Nazi ships from East Asia to the Third Reich until the end of 1942.This book investigates why Germans who had already established themselves in overseas countries chose to migrate back to an oppressive and authoritarian country.
