- English abstract
- While the Nazi exploitation of foreign forced labourers is a well-researched topic, historians have only recently started analysing how different Nazi occupation regimes across Europe secured labour for the Reich through promises, pressure, coercion and violence. This chapter compares the Nazi labour administration in western and eastern occupied Europe using the cases of Belgium and the General Government of Poland. In occupied Poland coercion was applied very quickly. In occupied Belgium the military government only started systematically drafting workers for the Reich in October 1942, but by 1943/44 violent manhunts echoed the methods long established in occupied Poland.
