The research The ‘German occupier’ in the trial papers. Jurisprudences and legal cultures in Turin in the long post-war judicial period (1945-2006) – funded by the Federal Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Federal Republic of Germany through the Italian-German Future Fund for the two-year period 2022-2023 and promoted by the Extraordinary and Military Justice Project under the coordination of Maria Di Massa – envisages the creation of a digital archive (ARCHOS) on post-war justice for Nazi and Fascist crimes, as well as the creation of the Italian Military Magistrates’ Registry.
The first phase of the research having been completed, the records of the trials and sentences pronounced by the Extraordinary Court of Assizes of Turin against collaborationists, as well as the records of the missed and (in a few cases) celebrated trials before the Military Court of Turin for Nazi and Fascist war crimes committed in north-western Italy, are now freely available for consultation on the ARCHOS platform.
These documents, buried for over fifty years in the so-called ‘cabinet of shame’, are now available for consultation at Istoreto. Finally, the Anagrafica dei Magistrati Militari Italiani (Register of Italian Military Magistrates) with the first 400 names and biographical details on Italian military magistrates is available online on ARCHOS Biografie.
The project is part of the “Giustizia straordinaria e militare” project
