Rundāns BASc, Waterloo, 1975 BA, Victoria, 2008 Supervisory Committee Dr. Serhy Yekelchyk (Department of History) Supervisor Dr. Perry Biddiscombe, (Department of History) Departmental Member iii Abstract Supervisory Committee Dr Serhy Yekelchyk (Department of History) Supervisor Dr. Perry Biddiscombe (Department of History) Departmental Member Despite significant evidence to the contrary in the Latvian language, especially the memoirs of General Pēteris Radzinš, Latvians, historians included, and others, have persisted in mythologizing the military events of 8 October to 11 November 1919 in Riga as some sort of national miracle. Since this Latvian army victory, first celebrated as Lāčplēsis Day on 11 November1920, accounts of this battle have been unrepresented, poorly represented or misrepresented. For example, the 2007 historical film Rīgas Sargi (The Defenders of Riga) uses the 1888 poem Lāčplēsis by Andrējs Pumpurs as a template to portray the Latvians successfully defeating the German-Russian force on their own without Allied military aid. Pumpurs’ dream and revolutionary legacy has provided a well used script for Latvian nation building.

  • LATVIA Historical Background (1939-1991) Information – Facts – Truth by Andrejs Mežmalis Rear Admiral (L), Retired
    LATVIA Historical Background (1939-1991) Information – Facts – Truth by Andrejs Mežmalis Rear Admiral (L), Retired The motto of this international conference is “A true understanding of history for a common future.” Therefore it is essential that we look at the past objectively, separating facts from fiction and truth from propaganda, especially when reviewing the information presented by the two most notorious counterfeiters of history that the world has ever known – the Soviet Union and Nazi Germany. The Baltic States – “Squeezed between USSR and Germany” (1920s-1930s). After being subjugated by the German-Russian rulers for several centuries, the Latvian, Finnish, Estonian, Lithuanian and Polish nations finally found an opportunity to break free from their bondage during the Russian Revolution (1917-1920); Latvia declared her independence on November 18, 1918. During the wars for independence (1917-1920), frequently fighting side-by-side, the Baltic States were also forced to fight against a German occupation force (Bermont’s Army); these were German soldiers that had remained behind after World War I and the Baltic Germans that were vying for the reestablishment of their dominance over Latvia and Estonia. The Baltic States also had to fight against an invading Soviet Red Army during 1918-1920. Finally, the forces of Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania and Poland emerged victorious. On August 11, 1920, Latvia concluded a Treaty of Peace with Russia, whereby “…Russia without any reservation recognizes the independence, self-determination and sovereignty of Latvia, and that Russia, of its own free will and forever, renounces all sovereign claims, that belonged to Russia in regards to the Latvian people and land …” Similar treaties of peace were completed by the other involved nations with the Soviets-Russia.

  • Nazi National Policy Towards the Russian Minority in the Baltic States
    Вестник СПбГУ. История. 2017. Т. 62. Вып. 1 T. Plath NAZI NATIONAL POLICY TOWARDS THE RUSSIAN MINORITY IN THE BALTIC STATES The paper examines the position of the Russian minority in the Baltic States during the Nazi occupa- tion. It argues that the Russians in the Baltic region experienced a higher level of discrimination than the local inhabitants, and it explores the reasons for such inequity. One of them lay in the strong anti- Russian sentiment shared by the Baltic local authorities, who aimed to use the German occupation to suppress the Russian minority. Another one was the complex and confused structure of the German occupation authorities in the Baltic region, with many political actors (such as the Ministry for the Oc- cupied Eastern Territories, the Office for the Four Year Plan, Himmler’s police units, the Wehrmacht and finally the local administrations) struggling for power there. Such entanglements resulted in the inconsistency of the German policy in racial and administrative issues including their attitude toward the Russian minority. While the higher echelons of Nazi power, police and the local authorities insisted on the extermination of the Slavs as Untermenschen, the German civilian administration of the lower level considered Russians to be a useful instrument in the fight against the local Baltic administrations, over which they had been losing control. However, the attempts to involve Russians in German policy failed due to a lack of coordination between the different branches of Nazi power and as a result of the growing guerrilla movement which involved many Russian inhabitants of the Baltic States.

In this introduction, we first present the articles that form part of this special section through a discussion of the various methods used by the authors to demonstrate the potential ways into studying collective memory. We then define the regional characteristics of Eastern Europe’s mnemonic politics and the reasons for their oftentimes conflictual character. Thereafter we consider three thematic arenas that situate the individual con- tributions to this special section within the wider scholarly debate. First, we examine the institutional and structural conditions that shape the circulation of memory and lead to conflictive constellations of remembering; second, we discuss how different regime types and cultural rules influence the framing of historical episodes, paying attention to supranational integration and the role of technological change; third, we consider the different types of actors that shape the present recall of the past, including political elites, social movements, and society at large. We conclude by identifying several promising avenues for further research.
