Claus Bundgård Christensen (born 1968) is a Danish historian and associate professor at Roskilde University known for his books related to collaboration and crime in Denmark during and following World War II.[1]

In 1998, he, and historians Niels Bo Poulsen and Peter Scharff Smith, published the book Danish: Under hagekors og [[Flag of Denmark|Dannebrog]] - danskere i [[Waffen SS]] (Under svastika and Dannebrog - Danes in Waffen SS), acclaimed for its non-apologist and detailed description of the Danes who volunteered for service in the Waffen SS on the Eastern front.[2] [3] Their 2016 book Danish: Waffen-SS : Europas nazistiske soldater (Waffen-SS: Europe's Nazi soldiers) has been translated to Dutch.[4]

In addition to his World War II era publications, he wrote Danish: Danskere på Vestfronten 1914-1918 (Danes on the Western Front 1914-1918), which also received very positive reviews and won the 'History book of the year' (Danish: Årets historiske bog) award in 2009.[1] [5]

Since 2010, he has been a reviewer of non-fiction books for Weekendavisen.[1]
