Key Findings: Nazis maintained a sustained interest in American racial policies, praising them continuously in the early 1930s. American citizenship and antimiscegenation laws directly influenced the Citizenship Law and the Blood Law. Radical Nazi lawyers utilized American models, occasionally viewing some American practices as even harsher than their own.&quot;,&quot;https:\/\/encrypted-tbn1.gstatic.com\/images?q\\u003dtbn:ANd9GcQRvPEAPaehPM5RkNgIVKuidnDSBKyP7RY8tsgF_abgVV6oqo4ia392JfAWVzthMfaFOWivY_vnas3bPNc&quot;,&quot;Princeton University Press&quot;,&quot;https:\/\/encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com\/faviconV2?url\\u003dhttps:\/\/press.princeton.edu\\u0026client\\u003dAIM\\u0026size\\u003d128\\u0026type\\u003dFAVICON\\u0026fallback_opts\\u003dTYPE,SIZE,URL&quot;,[[1793105889754881,90873206,1312235287],null,null,null,null,[[2,0,1,30]]],null,&quot;0e2488fe-2d69-4e97-adb5-e788f771117b&quot;]]--> <\/span>by Yale Law School professor James Q.
