Project description
Exploring the links between migration and persecution during the Holocaust
The Holocaust genocide has been a catalyst of migration for European Jews in the first half of the 20th century. The EU-funded LUBARTWORLD project will explore the links between migration and the Holocaust from a transnational microhistorical perspective. Using as a case study the collective biography of the Jewish inhabitants from the Polish village of Lubartow from the 1920s to the 1950s, LUBARTWORLD aims to trace the mobility of a group of persecution victims. The project will implement archival resources and digital humanities tools to reconstruct and analyse life-course information and to shed light on the formation of the post-World War II physiognomy of the world. It will explain the dynamics of a social structure drawn into a major disruption.
