Obligations of the Jewish Population Concerning the Forced Labor System as Shown in Gazeta evreiască (The Jewish Gazette)
Obligations of the Jewish Population Concerning the Forced Labor System as Shown in Gazeta evreiască (The Jewish Gazette)

Summary/Abstract: During World War II, the Romanian Jewry suffered from anti-Semitic laws and watched the dissolving of most Jewish institutions that managed their community’s cause. The Jewish Federation was dissolved and the Jewish Central took its place as an institution subordinated directly to the Romanian government. In the pages below, I analyze the way this institution managed to speak about certain aspects concerning the forced labor system of the Romanian Jewry during World War II, by using the publication entitled Gazeta evreiască (The Jewish Gazette), a newspaper that was also subordinated to the Jewish Central. I also examine the way this institution succeeded in supporting the cause of the Romanian Jewish Community.
