Abstract: (En) Between 1941 and 1944, the Romanian Jews were subjected to a regime of forced labor which was organized by the Ministry of Defense, the Ministry of Labor, the Ministry of the
Interior and the Chief of Staff of the Army. Jews aged between 18 and 50 years were forced to work in companies, institutions, detachments within their towns of residence and in
exterior detachments. The present paper examines the regime of sanctions and interdictions applicable to these Jews. Through the analysis of legal acts and military orders, we intend to document the punitive and privative dimension of the forced labor regime.
