Background: I am an author writing a book about the restitution of Jewish property that was seized during the Holocaust. 
Request: I need a report on efforts to effect restitution for Jewish property seized in Central or Eastern Europe (i.e., east of the German borders as they were set by the Treaty of Versailles).  I am looking for information both about attempts to effect restitution and attempts to stop it. I also need information on the role of civil society and of governments in encouraging restitution, including proposals for and enactment of laws to encourage or require the return of such property.
