| Resumo: | From 1935 to the end of the Second World War, the Nuremberg Laws were used by the clergy of the Church of Sweden in its stately function of consideration into impediments of marriage. German refugees of Jewish descent were denied to marry Germans of so-called Aryan descent. This application of the German law was according to the Hague Convention of 1902, which was in force in both Germany and Sweden. From September, 1937, Swedish citizens who wished to marry a German citizen of so-called Aryan descent were forced to sign a declaration that none of their grandparents had been of Jewish descent. This was due to a strong recommendation from the Swedish Foreign Office, but without any historical or democratic legitimacy. All ministers of the Church of Sweden did not follow this recommendation (bureaucratic resistance), but public criticism was declined. Other clergymen recommended the use of these declarations still in Autumn, 1942 (bureaucratic acceptance). The law on the Swedish application of the Hague Convention was not changed until 1947. A comparison to the situation in the Netherlands, where the Hague Convention was in force) shows that mixed marriages between German citizens were declined there as well. However, Dutch authorities refused to use 'Jewish' or 'Aryan' as descriptions of Dutch citizens. |
