As part of the optional course Interview II for history students at the University of Groningen (RUG), interviewers held discussions with people who were active in the Groningen squatters’ movement between 1977 and 1987. Emphasis is placed on the personal experiences of the individual squatters, the attitude of the squatters’ movement towards (official) authorities and organisations, and the relationships within the squatters’ movement itself.
Some individuals preferred not to appear before the microphone under their own or their full names.
The research resulted in an extensive report entitled: Kraken in Groningen 1977-1987. This report includes transcripts and summaries, a historical overview of the Groningen squatters’ movement and a short bibliography.
