Subhash Chandra Bose
1897-1945
Subhas Chandra Bose was an Indian nationalist whose
defiance of British authority in India made him a hero among
Indians, but his wartime alliances with Nazi Germany and
Fascist Japan left a legacy vexed by authoritarianism and anti-
Semitism. His reluctance to publicly criticize the worst
excesses of German anti-Semitism from 1938 onwards or to
offer refuge in India to its victims, cannot be said to have
arisen from a lack of awareness of the excesses.
