This data is based upon a searchable database provided by the Archives Nationales. It has been created within the process of a collaboration between the "Mémorial de la Shoah", the "US Holocaust Memorial Museum", and the "Archives Nationales". The dataset comprises 15'096 Persons who lost their citizenship due to new legislation by the Vichy Regime. The main target of these denaturalization efforts was the Jewish population in France. The persons targeted by this legislation resided predominantly in metropolitan France; some in the French colonies of Northern Africa, but very few with Connections to East Asia. Original documents are now held at the Archives nationales Pierrefitte-sur-Seine.
Multiple datasets generated from the source material, including transcriptions of person entries (names, dates of birth and death where available, profession and often location, remarks and operating unit) and structured person instance data derived from them are provided. Key historic person instance information (appearances in documents), serialized as JSON according to a formal schema is available, together with the JSON Schema itself. This is intended for use by external applications, and can also be searched interactively using a DPCL presentation website (see below) which explains the datasets further. In contrast to transcription data, which represents the printed and hand-written source material, and is often organized inconsistently, the historic person instance data provided here enables reliable searching across multiple archival sources. The historic person instance JSON is lightweight to enable scalability across large numbers of sub-collections/archives: it does not contain all of the information sometimes transcribed, such as remarks and military operating unit. However it does provide IIIF canvas IDs, connecting the person instance to the page in the source document where it originally occurred.
Where annotations can be generated from transcriptions they are provided as Web Annotation Data Model (WADM) annotation collections serialized as JSON, which are linked to source documents via PIDs. The annotation data can be used independently with the IIIF service provided here, to connect person instances interactively to their occurrence in the source documents. Provided principally for analysis preservation and verification purposes, the transcription data is less suitable for automated searching than the historic person instance JSON (above).
These datasets are also deposited in the Zenodo global catch-all repository as record DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.5116012.
A project website at https://www.divisive-power.org/ offers case studies well as search facilities which have access to all of the DPCL datasets, and additionally to other Divisive Power of Citizenship datasets.

Very little secured information could be gathered about this list. Created in December 1945, this record contains information about these French public personnel, who were considered suspects in the context of the legal purges (Épuration légale) after the war. The source includes information on the individual's name, grade and current position. The list only contains the person's name. Original documents now held at the Archives Nationales d'Outre Mer - Mairie d'Aix-en-Provence, were compiled in 1945.

The attached datasets contain the personal information of the members or associates of the résistance network centred around Marcel Mingant. The group functioned as an intelligence and evasion network from March 1943 to the 10th of February 1945. The information was contained within a Rapport written by Marcel Mingant and was extracted from the text and accompanying lists. Original documents are now held at the Archives nationales Pierrefitte-sur-Seine, and were compiled in October 1946.

The attached datasets contain the personal information of the members or associates of a résistance network in Cambodia. Personal information was extracted from a Witness Account written by Lucien Plasson. The information was extracted from the text on the one hand and lists embedded in the account on the other. Original documents are now held at the Archives nationales Pierrefitte-sur-Seine, were compiled in October 1945.

The attached datasets the personal information of the members or associates of the résistance network centred around Colonel Ragot. The group was mainly oriented against the resistance towards a possible Japanese attack on Indochina. However, it also built a liaison function with organisations based in Calcutta in 1944. The personal information was extracted from a Witness Account written by Commandant Tavarez. The information was extracted from the text on the one hand and lists embedded in the account on the other. Original documents are now held at the Archives nationales Pierrefitte-sur-Seine, were compiled on the 6th of February 1951.
