"The present English-language study, based on a previous, more comprehensive German edition comprising four volumes, was therefore not commissioned by the Foundation "Remembrance, Responsibility and Future", but written according to the academic methods and criteria of the above-mentioned research group. It is, then, the product of an independent research project made possible by funding from the Foundation "Remembrance, Responsibility and Future"."--ECIP Foreword.

Summary:Founded in 2000, the German Foundation "Remembrance, Responsibility and Future" is one of the largest transitional justice initiatives in history: in cooperation with its international partner organizations, it has to date paid over 4 billion euros to nearly 1.7 million survivors of forced labour during the Nazi Era. This volume provides an unparalleled look at the Foundation's creation, operations, and prospects after nearly two decades of existence, with valuable insights not just for historians but for a range of scholars, professionals, and others involved in human rights and reconciliation efforts.
