The following dissertation deals with the identification of issues regarding the World War II (1939-1945), which were experienced in the city of Porto Alegre, chiefly by the Jewish group following the Brazilian declaration of war (1942). We start off with a historical background of the Estado Novo (New State) (1937-1945), characterizing the government in effect and its actions on foreign and domestic plans. Such federal characteristics were present in the actions related to the context of war. Through the press as well as through oral testimonies, we have identified presences of the war in the everyday life of the population of the city, namely transportation problem, fuel shortage, introduction of the war bread , concern about the passive defense of the city, price rise and lack of some goods, mobilization of the population for war and for the government, among others. Thus, we evoke memories of Jewish immigrants over that period of time through the analysis of oral testimonies from the Collection of the Marc Chagall Institute, in order to identify particularities experienced by the community.
