Summary

Chapter 5 discusses the postwar international struggle for and against restitution carried out by the Romanian government and the local and international Jewish organizations that aimed to convince the Allies who prepared the peace treaty with Romania. On the one hand, it shows the local Jewish leaders’ and organizations’ efforts to obtain restitution, reparations, and restoration of rights by enlisting support from international Jewish organizations and Allied (Western) politicians. On the other hand, it highlights how most of the Romanian politicians and diplomats tried to limit restitution in favor of the Jews. In this chapter, the author also discusses other reparative justice measures adopted by the post-Antonescu governments, including the payment of limited reparations (pensions to some categories of survivors of camps, ghettos, and pogroms) and the return of citizenship.
