From euthanasia to the extermination of Jews
Implementation: 2013–2017
Head of project: Pavel Zeman
Other members of the project team (externists): Michal Šimůnek, Jitka Balcarová
Description of project: The aim of the project was to present the development of the Third Reich’s genocidal programmes using the example of selected groups of perpetrators of German nationality from southern and northern Bohemia. Under the project, the preparation and implementation of the Nazi “euthanasia” program in the territory of the former Reichsgau Sudetenland and the Protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia was to be mapped and the number of its victims was to be established. The outcome of the project was supposed to be a specialized monograph. In 2017, the head researcher in the project left ÚSTR and the manuscript of the forthcoming publication was never completed.
