De ggz-behandelaar in het Wilde Westen van de Natural Language Processing Tools : De mogelijkheden en risico’s van het gebruik van AI in de spreekkamer

A Question of Comparison—British Caribbean Slavery and the Holocaust in Germany and Occupied Europe

This chapter addresses two manifestly racist regimes headed by white, male colonisers, each using forced labour and entailing massive loss of life. Located in different climatic zones, one continental and the other maritime, each event occupies a separate period of time, Caribbean slavery the period 1650–1838, and forced labour and the Holocaust the period 1941–45. Following Katz, this book adopts a two-case study brought together in Chap. 9 as a synthesis.
