| Summary: | Most scholars familiar with the vast holdings that constitute the International Tracing Service archives have assumed that these were helpful primarily for the study of the Holocaust and its aftermath in Western and Central Europe. The author of the following study shows that these holdings offer substantial resources for students of Eastern Europe as well. In the first part the author explains why this is so, and in the second part moves on to a case study of a camp that the Romanian occupation maintained at Vapniarka in Transnistria. This case study draws upon other archival sources as well, demonstrating how ITS holdings complement other research resources, adding new dimensions to our understanding of the Holocaust in the East. |
