We aimed to explore the efforts by ordinary Croats to help Jews in Independent State of Croatia (NDH) during World War II. Those efforts consisted of writing petition letters to NDH government in defense of their fellow Jews. Our research questions regarded the arguments presented in the petitions. We used 80 petitions and divided them into six categories based on their content. Then we compared those arguments with the propaganda statements about Jews from Croatian newspapers. As the regime's propaganda was severely antisemitic, the analysis of the content of petitions attempted to explain the reasons behind them. This article also raised new questions which could provide the basis for further research. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
