As the date approaches for the public access to the Centraal Archief Bijzondere Rechtspleging, concerns and excitement grow among the descendants of war collaborators and victims. With 32 million pages expected to be fully digitized by January 1, 2025, discussions at a recent symposium highlighted the need for respectful engagement with difficult histories. Officials and researchers express concern over the findings of a study indicating that many Dutch people prefer not to see descendants of collaborators in public roles, reflecting ongoing tensions about the legacy of collaboration during World War II.
