WAR PROFIT. THE COMING INTO BEING AND LIVING ON OF OCCUPATION MEASURES The subject of this research is occupation law, that is to say the law that was established in the Netherlands under the German occupation, in particular the generally binding regulations of the central government.

A collateral question is that about the share and rationale of the German authorities in the realization of these durable measures. A second complementary question is that of possible continuity with pre-war government policy.

An important part of those measures involved the forced implementation of legislation that was already on the political agenda before the war, but in which decision-making stagnated due to political stalemates.

In the symbiotic relationship between Dutch civil servants and their German supervisors, the initiative for these measures has in most cases been taken by the latter.The conclusion must be that the German occupiers, whatever their motives may have been, pushed through measures that contributed significantly ...
