Japanese Latin Americans during World War II: A reconsideration

C. Harvey Gardiner is one of the pioneers in the study of Japanese in Latin America. In a widely cited book, Pawns in a Triangle of Hate: The Peruvian Japanese and the United States (1981), and in a subsequent article titled “The Latin-American Japanese and World War II” (1986), Gardiner offers a very detailed and disturbing portrait of different aspects of this topic.
