We discuss these two men’s lifehistories, the political impetus for creating racialized images of POWs, the early twentieth-century globalization of colonial power structures, and the capacity of a personal, arbitrary encounter to resist simple, deterministic imperatives.This work was supported by the Australian Research Council under DECRA [grant number DE140100878].application/pdfen-AU© 2019 Informa UK Limited, trading as Taylor & Francis GroupDouglas GrantRudolf MarcuseFirst World WarWünsdorfAustralian Indigenous military servicePOWshistory of racewartime encounters2019-05-1310.1080/02757206.2019.16077302020-05-10
