Geraldien von Frijtag Drabbe Kunzel is an Associate Professor at Utrecht University in the Department of Political History. She earned her Ph.D. in history from the University of Amsterdam in 1999, focusing on the role of German criminal courts in occupied Netherlands during the Nazi era from 1940 to 1945. Her research primarily revolves around contemporary European history, with particular emphasis on the Holocaust, political violence, and conflicts in twentieth-century Europe. Geraldien has published extensively on these topics, including her latest book, 'Hitler’s Brudervolk,' published by Routledge in 2015, which explores Dutch participation in the Germanization project during the occupation. She has coordinated various research initiatives, including the Utrecht Seminar on Political History and has been a researcher associated with the International Institute for Holocaust Research at Yad Vashem, Israel. Her research interests also extend to local dynamics of Nazi-occupied Netherlands, as reflected in her current NWO-funded project on the Holocaust in the provinces.
