- Double-weighted statement
- This research monograph of more than 400 pages investigates the exploitation of child forced labourers under the Nazis. It is the product of an extensive period of archival research, first begun in 2013. Using age and gender as categories for analysis it draws upon a wide range of official documents and more than 500 testimonies to shed light on the actions of perpetrators and on the children’s experience. On this basis we request that it be considered for double-weighting.

- English abstract
- The monograph documents the treatment and experience Polish, Soviet and Jewish child forced labourers under the National Socialists during WW2. It details the participation of German military and civil institutions in deporting and employing child forced labourers, and the interdependencies between child forced labour, deportation practices and Germanisation policies in occupied Poland and the Soviet Union. A second area of focus is the experience of deportation and forced labour as constructed and narrated in former child forced labourer’s testimonies.
