The gal- lery is celebrating its first adult jubilee with a notable exhibition of 150 collec- tion-level pictures, the crème-de-la- crème of Russian and Soviet photogra- phy. These are hand-printed originals, through which one can trace the evolu- tion of photography in the Soviet Union. Unlike in the West, where it was common practice for photographers to sign and stamp their photographs, for Soviet pho- tographers who seldom had exhibitions, prints were rare, which makes the prints on display, collected by the gallery or do- nated by the relatives of the photogra- phers, all the more precious.

Izručenja i sudbine zarobljenika smještenih u savezničkim logorima u svibnju 1945. MARTINA GRAHEK RAVANČIĆ Hrvatski institut za povijest, Zagreb, Republika Hrvatska U radu se nudi kraći osvrt na sudbine izručenih i prisilno repatriranih zarobljenika (pri- padnika vojnih snaga i civila), koji su u neposrednoj završnici Drugoga svjetskoga rata, bježeći pred jedinicama Jugoslavenske armije, primljeni i smješteni u savezničke logore za “predano neprijateljsko osoblje” tj. za “raseljeno osoblje”. Ključne riječi: Drugi svjetski rat, zarobljenici, prisilne repatrijacije, logori, žrtve, Zapad- ni saveznici Sporni događaji vraćaju nas u dane s kraja Drugoga svjetskoga rata u koji- ma pobjednici imaju primat i kroje oblik “novog svijeta”. Naći se na strani po- raženih značilo je iščekivati nepoznatu budućnost. U tom kontekstu našlo se i mnoštvo čije sudbine i danas obilježava bleiburška tragedija. Početkom svibnja 1945. kraj Drugoga svjetskog rata bio je samo pitanje dana. Političke i ratne prilike obilježene su stalnim nadiranjem savezničkih snaga, praćenih jedinica- ma Jugoslavenske armije (JA), te konstantnim sužavanjem linije bojišnice na prostoru Nezavisne Države Hrvatske (NDH).1 Zbog nedostatka naoružanja i općeg povlačenja postrojbi Trećeg Reicha s Balkana, Oružane snage NDH (OS NDH) našle su se u prilično nezavidnom položaju, pa je stoga donesena od- luka o općem povlačenju prema Zapadu. Gotovo istovremeno Josip Broz Tito naredio je zapovjednicima četiriju armija JA da “oslobodi jugoslovenske naro- de na njihovoj cjelokupnoj etničkoj teritoriji zaključno sa Istrom, Slovenačkim primorjem i Koruškom i okruži, prinudi na kapitulaciju ili uništi glavne snage okupatora i njihovih suradnika, koje su se u proleće 1945.

  • Close Designs and Crooked Purposes Forced Repatriations of Cossacks and Yugoslav Nationals in 1945
    Close Designs and Crooked Purposes Forced Repatriations of Cossacks and Yugoslav Nationals in 1945 Nikolai Tolstoy Introduction by Charles Crawford Editor's Note: This Occasional Paper is the transcript of a discussion at the CRCE in 2011. I am grateful to Annie Beadle and Valeria Eapen for their editorial assistance. In July 1995, the European Court of Human Rights concluded unanimously that the Brit- ish Government had violated Tolstoy’s rights in respect of Article 10 of the Convention on Human Rights, although this referred strictly to the amount of the damages awarded against him and did not overturn the guilty verdict of his libel action. The Times commented in a leading article: In its judgment yesterday in the case of Count Nikolai Tolstoy, the European Court of Human Rights ruled against Britain in important respects, finding that the award of £1.5 million levelled against the Count by a jury in 1989 amounted to a violation of his freedom of expression. Parlia- ment will find the implications of this decision difficult to ignore. The Constitution of the CRCE requires that its Trustees and Advisers dissociate them- selves from the analysis contained in its publications, but it is hoped that readers will find this study of value and interest. © Nikolai Tolstoy-Miloslavsky, May 2012 All rights reserved Occasional Paper 16 ISBN: 978-0-948027-65-9 Centre for Research into Post-Communist Economies 57 Tufton Street London SW1P 3QL [email protected] www.crce.org.uk Printed in Great Britain by IMS Limited, Selsey, Chichester PO20 OAF CLOSE DESIGNS AND CROOKED PURPOSES Forced Repatriations of Cossacks and Yugoslav Nationals in 1945 Based on a CRCE Discussion with Nikolai Tolstoy In the Chair: Charles Crawford CMG, March 2011 Thank you all for coming.
