Internment of suspects of collaboration in Belgium (1944-1946)

Projekt: ForschungResearch

Projektdetails

Goal of the project

Research project aiming to contribute to a better understanding of the organisation of the internment and the role of the military
justice in the imprisonment and re-education of collaborators in post-war Belgium and to challenge myths surrounding this issue, as
the legitimacy of the way the Belgian State and military justice system dealt with the question still is questioned, a widespread
image amongst a significant proportion of public opinion in Flanders being that of the internees as innocent civilians who were
imprisoned on loose charges. The output will be a database (to be used by WHI for their National Memorial), a workshop, a
conference, publications and an exhibition in situ (Breendonk).

Role of the organisation

The RMA team will focus on legislation, the analysis of criminal files, legal proceedings and the role of military justice. The database, the workshop and conference and
the publications will be realized together with the WHI team
