The district court of Osijek was founded in 1945 and was involved in the trials of Holocaust and genocide perpetrators after the war. Boxes 46-117 deal with such criminal offenses. The files inside the boxes usually include the indictment, summary of the trial, and perpetrator and victim testimonies given just before or during the trial. Due to the changing legal context in postwar-Yugoslavia, some perpetrators gave their testimonies multiple times over the course of several years. Therefore, this material is helpful to researchers focusing on the (re)construction of memory and narratives among perpetrators. Beyond perpetrator studies, the collection is also interesting for scholars dealing with transitional justice and the evolution of legal approaches to perpetration.
