Denaturalisation

This data is based upon a searchable database provided by the Archives Nationales. It has been created within the process of a collaboration between the «Mémorial de la Shoah»,
the «US Holocaust Memorial Museum» and the «Archives Nationales». The dataset comprises 15'096 Persons, who lost their citizenship due to new legislation by the Vichy Regime.
The main target of these denaturalization efforts was the Jewish population in France.

The persons targeted by this legislation resided predominantly in metropolitan France; there are some in the French colonies of Northern Africa, but very few with Connections to
East Asia.

Within the larger Ph.D. research project, this dataset will help search and identify French citizens targeted by Vichy Denaturalization Efforts.
