The End of Speechlessness: Why Real Names are the Only Insurance Against Forgetting Home Victims

This publication documents the historical and social reality of institutional child abuse in Austria, with a specific focus on the province of Salzburg. It analyzes the "paradox of visibility," where thousands of victims remain anonymous in scientific studies while their life paths are marked by trauma and professional disadvantages. The author, Peter Siegfried Krug (FIDE Master for Chess Composition), breaks the silence by publishing his own biography—from the infant home to the Guggenthal institution—using real names and original documents. This work serves as an act against forgetting and as a call for better protection and educational prospects for children in future institutional care.

Abstract

This publication documents the historical and social reality of institutional child abuse in Austria, with a specific focus on the province of Salzburg. It analyzes the "paradox of visibility," where thousands of victims remain anonymous in scientific studies while their life paths are marked by trauma and professional disadvantages. The author, Peter Siegfried Krug (FIDE Master for Chess Composition), breaks the silence by publishing his own biography—from the infant home to the Guggenthal institution—using real names and original documents. This work serves as an act against forgetting and as a call for better protection and educational prospects for children in future institutional care. Key Contents: > * Statistics on home victims in Austria and regional focal points (Vienna, Salzburg, Tyrol). Impact of institutionalization on employment and social status. The role of "Real Name Documentation" versus "Anonymization." Biography of Peter Siegfried Krug and his mission for transparency.
