Transnitria under Romanian and Nazi occupation (1941–1944)
Transnistria — between the Dniester and Bug rivers under Romanian and Nazi occupation (1941–1944)— was a complex and understudied space where genocide and occupation practices were tested. Jews, Roma, and local populations navigated shifting conditions of violence and survival.
This workshop will bring together international scholars and aims to: (1) analyse violence and survival in their local contexts through microhistorical approaches; (2) explore how survival strategies were shaped by gender, age, and social networks; and (3) examine how these experiences were reinterpreted after the war and influenced postwar justice and social relations.
