Unpublished documents on the situation of Jews in the city of Galati during the Second World War

Abstract

The adoption of anti-Jewish legislation in Romania meant primarily the elimination of Jews from all offices held in state institutions, the expropriation and transfer of Jewish property into the care of the Romanian state through an extensive process of Romanianization. The first persons eliminated from institutions were intellectuals: lawyers were expelled from bars, doctors had no right to practice medicine, etc.
