SUMMARY:LUNCH SEMINAR: Luca De Benedictis - University of Macerata
DESCRIPTION;ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE:\n\nDiscrimination, Political Orientation, and the Decision to Migrate: Uni
 versity Professors in Fascist Italy\n\n\nAbstract:\nWe study the decision t
 o emigrate of academics of Jewish origin dismissed from their positions by 
 the Mussolini government in 1938, when new Racial Laws were introduced, ope
 ning a new phase of increased persecution of Jews by restricting their righ
 ts and livelihoods. We use rich individual-level data on the universe of Je
 wish professors, revealing their family situation, their domestic and inter
 national academic recognition as well as their political orientation. Jewis
 h academics with children, with Jewish spouses, those whose parents are dec
 eased, young, and international recognized scholars are more likely to emig
 rate. Jewish academics who are either openly fascist or anti-fascist are le
 ss likely to emigrate. While the former may feel "safe enough" given their 
 loyalty to the regime, the latter may want to oppose and fight the regime, 
 as evidenced by several of them joining the resistance.\n
