Consequently, the activity of Soviet Bloc intelligence service, did notslecken. Espionage activities were agein . dirsoted against almost all fields of public life. No essential changes were noticed with regard to targets. All services interest continued to be speolfloelly concentrated on the procurement of military and politioal information. As previously, the hostile servioes paid greatest attention to the careful selection and training of their agents and equipped them with highly qualified technical aids for maintaining the connection and for communication. The deo aaaaa of recognised recruitment oases which wee notiood after the erection of the Berlin Wall, did not continue further. The figures remained the same as lilt year. ixesa I. Extent pi Aotivity A total of 1,432 agent reoruiteents or recruitment attempts Cams mode by Soviet Bloo intelligence services, were discovered in 1963 in the Federal Republic (1962, 1,430).

Agent couples appeared rather frequently. Of the 1,432 recognised oases 1,214 persons, that is SS, were approached by the Soviet Zone intelligence miracles. This wental number again emphasised the danger which the Soviet Zone intelligence services constitute for the Federal Republic. The other cases oan be broken down as follows: Soviet intelligence services 84 Polish intelligence services59 n Beech intelligence services 35 TutOslav intelligenoe services 15 "1101111 Shigisignintelligence services 10 RRumanian intelligence services 4 1111 ...

FurthermOra, the Soviet Sloe States sissies in the redoral Republic onntinued to be used as bases of hostile ashtritY which enabled the individual intelligence wortrioeo to awry out sepionage under the gulls of diplomatia or mommeraial relations. A oomparisonghe activity of the individual services with the above mentioned starting points, does not give a uniform picture. The gravity center of the Soviet Zone intelligsnoe services is naturally with the handling agencies in East Berlin. The Soviet intelligence services oarry out their activities against the Federal Republic Rattly through their operational office. in the Soviet Zone. Besides the Soviet Embassy and the Soviet Trade Mission developed itatelligence' activities to quite considerably extent. The Yugoslays appear to primarily use their missions for intelligence activities against the Federal Republic. As regards intelligence activities, the other services probably equally operetta from their intelligence bases in East Berlin and their handling agencies in their own esuntries, while the missions of those countries in the Federal Republic, appear to be primarily concerned with tasks of a preparatory and supporting nature. ::10DMMI xx.

The targets of the Soviet 2100services , political espionage primarily were the spheres of foreign and donestio politics. About 10% of all political assignments were directed against the democratic parties. Aloost all fields of economic life in the Federal Republic were covered by hostile cono ic espionage. The Soviet Bloc intelligence services special intsrest was Gerson industry. IX The greatest number of assignments were recorded in the field of electrical industry, followed by the chemical and armament industries and other branches of industry having almost an equal share. Assignments against institutes of scientific research were also continuously issued. The agents of eastern intelligence services in 1963 also reoeived assignments to furnish public opinion reports and the view. expressed b y West German residents with regard to oertain politieal events or current political questions. Through this type of espionage, the Soviet Bloc continued to pursue the aim of procuring in an intelligence manner, documents and materiel for infiltration, subversion, as well as for agitetion and propaganda against the Federal Republic. During the year under review, one case was recorded in which an agent group was engaged in sabotage preparations upon instructions of a Soviet Bloc intelligence service. The agents as a rule had the assignment to select concealment possibili- ties for weapons, explosivea and food, and to detect sensitive points for destruction in important plants, whereby the entire manufacture could be paralysed.

  • The Friedland Refugee Transit Camp As Regulating Humanitarianism, 1945-1960
    “GATEWAY TO FREEDOM”: THE FRIEDLAND REFUGEE TRANSIT CAMP AS REGULATING HUMANITARIANISM, 1945-1960 DEREK JOHN HOLMGREN A dissertation submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of History. Chapel Hill 2015 Approved by: Konrad H. Jarausch Christopher R. Browning Chad Bryant Tobias Hof Donald J. Raleigh © 2015 Derek John Holmgren ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Derek John Holmgren: “Gateway to Freedom”: The Friedland Refugee Transit Camp as Regulating Humanitarianism, 1945-1960 (Under the direction of Konrad H. Jarausch) Using the refugee transit camp located in Friedland, Lower Saxony as a case study, this dissertation examines the efforts in West Germany to aid and resettle millions of persons displaced during and after World War II. These uprooted populations included foreign victims of the Nazi regime (forced laborers, prisoners of war, and concentration camp survivors), Germans evacuated from bombed-out cities, Germans fleeing or expelled from from Eastern Europe, and German soldiers who were demobilized and released from prisoner of war camps. Established by order of the British military government in September 1945, the camp at Friedland functioned as the lynchpin for a system designed to collect, aid, register, and resettle displaced populations as quickly as possible. As such, this study describes the operation of the camp as a regulating form of humanitarianism that not only aided refugees with food, shelter, and medical services, but also turned unmanageable masses into settled individuals with claims on the postwar welfare state. Between 1945 and 1960, the camp processed over 2.1 million individuals.

Streets, subway lines, rail links, even apartment houses, sewers, and phone lines, were cut and blocked. The Wall represented a uniquely squalid, violentÐand, as we now know, ultimately futileÐepisode in the post-war world. The subsequent international crisis over Berlin, which was especially intense during the summer and autumn of '61, threatened the world with the risk of a military conflictÐone that seemed as if it could escalate at any time to a terrifying nuclear confrontation between the US and the Soviet Union. How did it come to this? In 1945, the victors of World War IIÐthe USA, the Soviet Union, Britain, and by special dispensation the FrenchÐhad divided Germany into four Zones of Occupation and its capital, Berlin, into four Sectors.

It refrains from viewing the Heimatfilm as a separate genre that has been predominantly understood as a local principle, whose foil is the travel and road film as allegedly more vital and mobile engagements with geo-political developments. Instead, Heimat is the overarching principle of my dissertation with the goal of formulating the New Heimatfilm as a hybrid genre comprising elements from the rural, urban and road film that demonstrate a conceptual shift within German film.
