"In Croatia the Ustasha regime introduced anti-Jewish measures and legislation following the promulgation of the special racial statutes in 1941. These included a yellow badge for Jews over the age of fourteen, confiscation of Jewish property, and deportation to forced labor in concentration camps established in 1941/42. The article gives details about the transit camp in Zagreb, and focuses on concentration camps in which most of the inmates were women and children: Kruscica, Lobor, Gornja Rijeka, Dakovo, and Tenje. Some of the inmates were transferred to the Jasenovac camp and murdered there or deported to...

"Jews probably lived in Macedonia in Greek and Roman times. At the time of the Spanish Inquisition many fled to Salonika, travelled inland and settled mainly in the larger towns. Until the rise of Fascism in Europe during the 1930’s the Jews lived in peace with the other Yugoslav nationalities. However, in 1935 fascism spread to Yugoslavia and in 1939 restrictive legislation was instituted and many Jews left for Palestine or were banished. Until the outbreak of World War II, 75,000-80,000 Jews lived in Yugoslavia; only 12,000 survived. Ten percent of Jews in pre-war Yugoslavia lived in Macedonia. In April 1941,...
"Zbornik prispevkov Slovenski Judje: Zgodovina in holokavst II, ki ga je izdal in založil Center judovske kulturne dediščine Sinagoga Maribor, je rezultat projekta ob mednarodnem dnevu spomina na žrtve holokavsta pod naslovom Šoa – spominjajmo se. „Enodnevni znanstveni posvet prinese toliko novega gradiva, spoznanj in sintez, da lahko brez pretiravanja rečemo: čeprav so slovenske judovske študije in študije holokavsta močno finančno podhranjene in v nacionalni shemi financiranja temeljnega raziskovanja komajda tu pa tam uspejo pridobiti kak skromen projekt, so prav te študije v Sloveniji med najbolj...
