  • Whitehall and the Jews, 1933-1948: British Immigration Policy, Jewish Refugees and the Holocaust, is a book by Louise London, first published by Cambridge University Press in 2000. It details the British government's response to refugees fleeing persecution in Nazi Europe between the years 1933 and 1948. London challenges the belief that prewar Britain was a safe house, and estimates that a large number of European Jews were prevented entry as a result of immigration policy at the time. The book is used to debate the kindertransport as too simplistic and overwhelmingly positive, as London questions what happened to the parents and elder siblings of the children who were left behind. In 2001, the book was shortlisted for the Jewish Quarterly-Wingate Prize. In the same year, Rory Miller and Richard Thurlow described it as scholarly. The following year, Todd Endelman rated the book as the best account of British refugee policy. In The Jewish Quarterly Review (2003), Susan Cohen notes that it would be easy to make parallels with later immigrant stories. (en)
