Though economic discrimination and the seizure of Jewish property were integral parts of the Holocaust, until recently research on this dimension of Nazi anti-Jewish persecution lagged behind other areas of Holocaust studies. This symposium, held March 22, 2001 at the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum and organized by the Center for Advanced Holocaust Studies, was a unique opportunity to hear from eleven scholars whose research in newly released archival materials advanced the study of the confiscation of Jewish property by the Third Reich and its European allies. The speakers examined the institutions charged with implementing confiscation policies, the manner in which Jewish assets were seized, and the perspectives of those whose property was confiscated. Also considered were the possibilities for future research as well as potential barriers to it.
