Abstract:
Museum of Genocide Victims in Belgrade engaged in the collection, processing and storage of data on individual and group victims of crimes of genocide and other facts, the structure of the crime of genocide, official documents, lists of victims, testimony, museum exhibits, photos, films, video and sound recordings, books, medical and other documentation, information relevant to the determination of the organizers, the perpetrators, commanders and accomplices responsible for crimes of genocide that were carried out, details of the rescuers of victims of genocide, and so on. Museum of Genocide Victims has a database called „Victims of War 1941-1945.“, which was based on the list of victims during the Second World War in Yugoslavia, which began in 1964, and whose revisions and additions were launched in 1995. Database „Victims of War 1941-1945.“ currently holds data for about 660,000 persons of different nationalities, from about 1.1 million victims how much it is estimated that there were real human losses in Yugoslavia during World War II. Legal regulations of the Republic of Serbia do not allow public disclosure of the database via the Internet, such as for example the case with the central database of names of victims of the Holocaust Memorial Center Yad Vashem in Israel. Legal regulations of the Republic of Serbia and logic and illogicality regarding the public disclosure of the database „Victims of War 1941-1945.“ on the internet are the focus of our interest.
