While progress has been made concerning provenance research in connection to WWII following the 1998 Washington Conference, the majority of the research focus has been on public institutions. Public institutions are not, however, the only actor affected by the atrocities of WWII, nor the only actor that has shaped the cultural heritage landscape. It is therefore high time to turn our efforts towards private actors and Jewish Country Houses. The "The Private is Public" project centres around the belief that it is vastly important to conduct comparative research that focuses on how cultural actors conduct provenance research, why they initiate these projects and what the outcomes are, in order to gain a greater understanding.Possible research questions are: What incentives motivate private actors to instigate provenance research projects? How are provenance research projects by private actors implemented? What impacts have provenance research projects by private actors yielded? The "The Private is Public" project will apply a national and transnational level of inquiry, as Jewish Country Houses are found all over the world and are shaped by their specific contexts. The focus will be on three nations: the UK, Germany, and Sweden. These nations have been chosen primarily for two reasons: 1) Their individual historical position in WWII (one Axis power, one Allied power, and one 'Neutral' nation) and their unique connections to the events that followed WWII, which can be studied through the lens of provenance research projects instigated by private actors and the effects these projects have had on the history of private actors, the public memory of the Holocaust, and the legacies of WWII; 2) The three nations also occupy different points on how far the implementation of provenance research has come.As previously mentioned, the majority of scholarly contributions with connections to provenance research have focused on public institutions. A study focusing primarily on private actors is, therefore, at the forefront of scholarly pursuits. Conducting a comparative study focusing on the three chosen nations is based on preliminary research, unique - quite possibly the first of its kind. The study holds the possibility of gaining a deeper knowledge about specific private actors, as well as yielding a greater understanding on a national and transnational level. It is well-known that objects looted during WWII were dispersed all over the world. It is therefore of great importance to compare knowledge about the different layers of provenance research projects, conducted by private actors on a transnational scale, as it holds the possibility of facilitating new insights for international provenance research. The project will be interdisciplinary and employ a combination of disciplines, methodologies, and sources. The theoretical framework will mainly be acquired from the academic fields of History, Art History, and Cultural Science, e.g., Heritage Studies, Jewish & WWII Studies, and Critical Provenance Research. The method will combine qualitative techniques, mainly semi-structured interviews, case studies, and comparative analysis. The study will have national and transnational levels of inquiry. The study will employ a wide variety of sources, such as interviews, archives, museum records, seminal works on Nazi-looted art, WWII legacies, and more. The interdisciplinary nature of this project is partly based on the fact that provenance research by its very nature is interdisciplinary, and therefore demands a flexible and multifaceted framework. "The Private is Public" is part of the AHRC-funded 'Jewish Country Houses' project led by Professor Green, and part of the research will take place at the Liebermann-Villa, under the supervision of Dr Wasensteiner (expert in the field of Third-Reich era provenance research and Anglo-German cultural relations). A preliminary thesis structure is available on request.

尽管在1998年华盛顿会议之后与第二次世界大战有关的出处研究取得了进展，但大多数研究重点都放在公共机构上。但是，公共机构并不是唯一受第二次世界大战暴行影响的演员，也不是唯一塑造了文化遗产景观的演员。因此，现在是时候将我们的努力转向私人演员和犹太乡村房屋了。 “私人是公共”项目围绕着这样的信念，即进行比较研究非常重要，该比较研究重点是文化参与者如何进行出处研究，为什么启动这些项目以及结果是什么，以获得更大的理解，以获得更大的理解。易于获得的研究问题是：哪些激励措施激励私人参与者来启动出处研究项目？私人参与者的出处研究项目如何实施？私人参与者产生的出处研究项目有什么影响？ “私人是公共的”项目将应用国家和跨国的调查水平，因为犹太乡村房屋遍布世界各地，并受其特定环境的影响。重点将放在三个国家：英国，德国和瑞典。 These nations have been chosen primarily for two reasons: 1) Their individual historical position in WWII (one Axis power, one Allied power, and one 'Neutral' nation) and their unique connections to the events that followed WWII, which can be studied through the lens of provenance research projects instigated by private actors and the effects these projects have had on the history of private actors, the public memory of the Holocaust, and the legacies of WWII; 2）这三个国家在出处研究的实施程度上也占据了不同的观点。如前所述，与出处研究联系的大多数学术贡献都集中在公共机构上。因此，一项主要关注私人参与者的研究是学术追求的最前沿。进行以三个选择国家为重点的比较研究是基于初步研究，这很可能是同类的。该研究具有更深入了解特定私人参与者的可能性，并对民族和跨国层面有了更大的了解。众所周知，第二次世界大战期间被掠夺的物体在世界各地分散。因此，重要的是要比较私人参与者以跨国规模进行的有关出处研究项目的不同层面的知识，因为它具有促进国际出处研究的新见解的可能性。该项目将是跨学科的，并采用了学科，方法和来源的组合。理论框架将主要从历史，艺术史和文化科学的学术领域获得，例如遗产研究，犹太和第二次世界大战研究以及批判性出处研究。该方法将结合定性技术，主要是半结构化访谈，案例研究和比较分析。该研究将具有国家和跨国探究水平。该研究将采用各种各样的资料来源，例如访谈，档案，博物馆记录，纳粹洛特艺术，第二次世界大战遗产等。该项目的跨学科性质部分基于以下事实：出处研究本质是跨学科的，因此需要灵活且多方面的框架。在Wasensteiner博士的监督下，“私人是公共的”是由格林教授领导的AHRC资助的'犹太乡村房屋'项目的一部分。可根据要求提供初步论文结构。
