The Nazi Genocide of the Roma

Curatorial Note

An important reassessment of the Nazi genocide of the Roma, bringing together comparative case studies of persecution across France, Austria, Romania, Croatia, Ukraine, and Russia. Edited by Anton Weiss-Wendt, the volume examines the development of genocidal policies, regional variations in persecution and mass murder, and the evidentiary basis for understanding the destruction of Roma communities within the framework of genocide. It also extends beyond wartime persecution to address postwar justice, collective memory, recognition, and commemoration, making the book especially valuable for connecting the history of the Samudaripen with its legal, historiographical, and memorial afterlives.
