The author discusses different brands of nationalism among mathematicians over a long period of time ranging from the German-French conflict of the 19th century through the aftermath of World War II and the boycott policies of the Western allies against Germany, to the specific conditions of Hitler's Germany with state-licenced anti-semitism. In the latter case the problem of mathematical refugees from Europe and the situation of the United States as a country of refuge for mathematicians are discussed in some detail. Some new archival information from interviews of the author with refugees, P. Thullen and M. Zorn, is included. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0990.00012].
