Abstract
The aim of the project is to arrive at the most accurate number as possible of people who used to live within the current borders of the Republic of Slovenia and whose lives were brutally taken during World War II or after it, as a direct consequence. The list will contain as much data as possible on the victims of the war (name, surname, age, place of birth, sex, marital status, social status, nationality, place of residence, war status, etc.) and on the circumstances surrounding their death. In addition to fatalities among the Slovenian majority, the research also deals with casualties among minorities (Germans, Italians, Hungarians) and among members of other nationalities who lived in what was then the territory of Slovenia. The project includes victims who were killed in military conflicts, were executed, who lost their lives as the result of other circumstances of war (shelling, bombardment, etc.), those who died in prison, camps, confinement, exile, refugee camps, and captivity. The results of the project will be made available to the public in the form of a computer-supported database, as well as in the form of a published book.
