Born in the state capital of Fortaleza, Northeastern Brazil, Barroso was half German by birth, his mother coming from Württemberg. As Brazil had relatively few Jews at the time, Barroso's writings tended to focus on the international conspiracy theory of Jewish world control and are in the worst style of European anti-Semitism of the 1920’s and 1930’s - but with the inevitable tropical-nationalist flavor. Eventually, the ferocity of Barroso's anti-Semitic tropes resulted in him being exiled to Portugal once Brazil declared war on the Axis Powers in 1942.
