Nuremberg laws
Reich citizenship restrictions
The Nuremberg Laws were antisemitic statutes enacted in Nazi Germany in 1935, stripping Jews of citizenship and prohibiting marriage or sexual relations between Jews and non-Jewish Germans.
They institutionalized racial discrimination and laid legal groundwork for the Holocaust.
The term now references any state-sanctioned racial persecution codified in law.
