The Informationsdienst gegen Rechtsextremismus (IDGR) is a German project on the Internet to fight against Holocaust denial similar to the Nizkor Project. The IDGR was founded by political scientist Margret Chatwin in 1998. Today, several authors contribute to this privately financed project. Many people regard the IDGR website as the primary German language source of information on right wing extremism.
Mission
The mission of the IDGR is to unmask anti-semitism and Holocaust denial and to provide reliable information about the Holocaust, its perpetrators and its background. This includes in-depth analyses of news reports and revisionist literature as well as references to further books or Internet pages.
Structure
The main part of the website is a regularily updated collection of texts dealing with different topics in the field of nazism and extremism. The articles are covering related issues such as the history of the Colonia Dignidad or White Supremacy movements in the USA as well.
An important subsection of the homepage is the Lexicon of Right Wing Extremism consisting of currently about 300 files. Detailed information about right wing activists (such as Erich Priebke), organizations (National Alliance), publications and Holocaust deniers (Ernst Zündel, Germar Rudolf or David Irving) are available there.
