Fourth International Multidisciplinary Conference, Imperial War Museum, London, 4-6 January 2012

This conference is a follow-up to the three successful conferences which took place at the Imperial War Museum London in 2003, 2006 and 2009. It will continue to build on areas previously investigated as well as open up new fields of academic enquiry.

More than 100 speakers from all over the world will present and discuss the latest results of their research on all groups of survivors of Nazi persecution. These include - but are not limited to - Jews, Gypsies, Slavonic people, homosexuals, Soviet prisoners of war, political dissidents, members of underground movements, the disabled, the so-called racially impure, and forced labourers.
