Waren Oma und Opa Nazis?

AI Summary

long article 5 min

Das US-Nationalarchiv stellt digitalisierte NSDAP-Mitgliederkarteien online zur Verfügung, die Daten von 6,6 Millionen Deutschen bis 1945 enthalten. Diese Informationen sind in Deutschland seit 1994 im Bundesarchiv zugänglich, jedoch mit Schutzfristen und eingeschränktem Zugang. Während in den USA jeder die Karteien durchsuchen kann, ist die Akteneinsicht in Deutschland an Verwandtschaftsverhältnisse gebunden und unterliegt dem Datenschutz. Historiker Johannes Spohr unterstützt Menschen bei der Erforschung ihrer NS-Familiengeschichte, da die mündliche Weitergabe von Familienerinnerungen abnimmt und Archivrecherchen relevanter werden. Die Nachfrage kommt aus allen Generationen, da sich die Gesellschaft im Übergang zwischen kommunikativem und kulturellem Gedächtnis befindet.
