| Zusammenfassung: | The french internment camps in North Africa1940... The defeat, the Nazi occupation, the Vichy regime: was North Africa so distant? Not really. The Jewish population in Algeria, Morocco and Tunisia felt the harsh application of exclusion laws, the numerus clausus, in public service, the army, universities and public schools, spoliations, arrests and internments.Thousands of men – deputies, senators, communists, members of unions, members of the International Brigades, Spanish refugees, foreign Jews expelled from the French army – all considered unwelcome in France, were deported to camps that were opened in Algeria, Morocco and Tunisia in order to eliminate them from society.They were placed under the jurisdiction of French officials and guarded by brutal members of the Légion étrangère who missed nothing, in comparison to the French Militia or the Nazis, in their use of sadism. In total disregard of international law, the internees for the most part were subjected to a harsh regime and to forced labor, and were kept in particularly inhumane living conditions. |
