During that period we have issued over 30 different titles of various types of publications. Apart from the editions that keep track of our regular 2-year activities (7 catalogues) and books of various contents, a special place in this collection is reserved for books and exhibitions dedicated to the history and the sufferings of our community from its founding in 1739 right up to the end of the Second World War (World War II). The edition we are particularly proud of is the book “Righteous Among the Na- tions – Serbia”. As a result of a 2-year long period of research and writing, in 2010 we published the book by writer Milan Fogel, which was pronounced a capital work of prose by the City of Belgrade. The publication “The Righteous (With and Without) the Medal” is a sequel to the previous book and is a continuation of his work dedicated to the commemoration and remembrance of the courageous people of Serbia who, during World War II, saved the lives of their co-citizens, Jews faced with the fate of extinction. Since 1963 the World Centre for the Remembrance of the Holocaust, Yad Vashem, has been awarding Medals of the Righteous to people who saved the lives of Jews, as a symbol of recognition and appreciation for their acts of humanity and utmost cour- age. During the research period of gathering material and data for writing the stories of the people who were awarded the Medal, we came to the conclusion that there still existed many cases of saving Jews which had not been recognized and the protagonists involved were thus deprived of the Righteous Award. The idea and the task which we have now placed before us is to collect as much relevant evidence about them as pos- sible so that they can be acknowledged as the Righteous, or if not, at least prevent their deeds from being forgotten. With the breakup of Yugoslavia during the 90’s of the previous century, we were faced with the fact that Yad Vashem had divided its existing list of the Righteous of Yugoslavia according to the newly-founded states. The criteria used for this division was unacceptable to us in Zemun. We believe that the only possible method was to apply the territorial principle, i.e. a division according to the place of habitation of the saviour and the place where the act was performed (in the territories of the newly- founded states), and not the principle of nationality by which certain Righteous have subsequently been relocated to the lists of their new national states. It is unacceptable to us that Slovenes, Hungarians, Slovaks, Albanians, the Roma, Germans, Croats, are excluded from the list of Serbian citizens, although they were or still are, citizens of Serbia. As an example we here state the case of Arslan Reznici from Kosovo and Me- tohia, who at the request of his family, was transferred to the Righteous of Albania by Yad Vashem. Another case relating to Kosovo and Metohia is that of the Croatian Ana Jakić, who was transferred to the Righteous of Croatia. A third case is the transfer of 7 Andrej Tumpej to the Righteous of Slovenia. On the other hand, Yad Vashem trans- ferred the Serbians who saved lives in Bosnia and Herzegovina to the Righteous of Serbia. Such transfers are also unacceptable to us. Due to the constant relocation of certain Righteous from one state to another based on the criteria of nationality as already stated, we endeavour to make Yad Vashem acknowledge that the most acceptable method of listing the saviors is the “territorial principle”. Until this is accepted, our list of the Righteous will deviate in some respect from that of the official list of Yad Vashem. In the list which is given in this book by the Jewish Community in Zemun, only the Righteous who saved Jews on the territory of Serbia are noted. At the time when the book in question was in print (December, 2018,) Yad Vashem had recognized 26, 973 Righteous from 51 states. The degree of commiseration which the citizens of Serbia felt towards their co-citizens, Jews, is best illustrated by the fact that Serbia, according to the number of recognized Righteous, is placed high on the list of Righteous, taking the 14th position among the already mentioned 51 states world- wide, with its 139 Righteous. These are official facts stated on Yad Vashem’s site and they, as we have already mentioned, differ from our own list. According to our territo- rial principle, Serbia has 138 Righteous. The work of the Yad Vashem Commission for recognizing new Righteous contin- ues to this day. We hope that our research will be recognized and lead to new Award Medals. The President of the JC Zemun and editor of this book, Nenad Fogel 8 THE RIGHTEOUS WITHOUT A MEDAL 9 10 THE END OF THE NIGHTMARE This is the story of Rahela Ferari and the rescue operation during the Holocaust in World War II (WWII) that kept her alive. To eliminate all doubt from the start, Rahela Ferari was the artistic name of the renowned Yugoslav actress Bele Rohel Frojnd ( Bela, father’s name, Rohel, Yiddish, Ruža in Serbian and Rosalie in German, which was at the time the official language in part of the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy). Her stage name, Rahela Ferari, Rohel accepted at the start of her career in Novi Sad, before she went to the theatre in Budapest to acquire her theatrical knowledge – evi- dence of this can be seen in a travel document where these details were written in her own hand. She was and is remembered by that name in the territories of pre-war and post-war Yugoslavia. When she got married, the priest gave her the name Marija; thus Rohel Frojnd acquired another new name. To keep up with the history of her name, I mention here in advance, that Rahela acquired a new surname as well when in 1943 she married the well-known pre and post-war actor Aleksandar Aca Stojković. In order to avoid any confusion with her many names, since she had quite a few as dictated by various circumstances, throughout this life story we shall call Rohel - Rahela Ferari. Bela and Emilija Frojnd, nee Leiner, lived in Zemun at the onset of World War I (WWI). With their family of sev- en children the Frojnds lived on the out- skirts of Zemun town. Being a family with scarce means, nobody ever thought of buying toys for the children. However, a childhood be- reft of toys did not deter Rahela from finding amusement for herself. She would go out into the street and stare at the ants passing by the wooden fence. For the future actress, just like for many Janika, Bela, Emilija, Emil, other professions, a vivid imagination Johana, Rahela, Julija and Etel Frojnd was essential. Rahela used to play with the ants, inventing stories, and thus found amusement for herself. Just like a miniature Disney theatre, as Rahela much later on recollected, playing with the ants in a world of fantasy, she was the overpowering director who arranged their lives for them. She would place hurdles made of tufts of grass before them and they would have to fend for themselves in new and unpredict- able situations It did not take long before the Frojnd family also faced obstructions, since some- one else was now dictating the way they would live.

  • The Hungarian Historical Review
    Hungarian Historical Review 5, no. 4 (2016): 739–766 1956 and the Collapse of Stalinist Politics of History: Forgetting and Remembering the 1942 Újvidék/Novi Sad Massacre and the 1944/45 Partisan Retaliations in Hungary and Yugoslavia (1950s–1960s)* Árpád von Klimó The Catholic University of America, Washington, DC Two acts of mass violence that occurred during World War II have strained relations between Hungarians and Serbs for decades: the murder of several thousand civilians in Novi Sad (Újvidék) and the surrounding villages in January 1942, committed by the Hungarian army and gendarmerie, and Tito’s partisan army’s mass killings and incarceration of tens of thousands civilians, most of them Hungarians, at the end of the war. Remembering these atrocities has always been difficult and strongly politicized, but this was particularly the case when the Communist regimes in Hungary and Yugoslavia based the legitimation of their authority on anti-Fascist narratives and interpretations of the war. The conflict between Stalin and Tito, and the anti-Stalinist revolution of 1956 made it even more difficult to propagate the original Stalinist narrative about the war, which stood in ever starker contrast to everyday realities. When Kádár began to revise the political justification of his regime with a narrative that was both anti- Fascist and (moderately) critical of Stalinism in the 1960s, the remembrance of the 1942 massacre changed. In Yugoslavia, the weakening of the central government in the 1960s contributed to a local re-appropriation of

Under the terms of the Paris Peace Treaty in 1921 it was annexed to the Serbo-Croat-Slovenian Kingdom, that later became Yugoslavia. The new name of this territory, situated to the east of present Croatia, was VOJVODINA (also spelled Voivodina or Voyvodina). Its former Hungarian name had been Bacska and Banat. During World War II, in 1941, Germany occupied Yugoslavia. At the same time, Hungary took possession of and re-annexed VOJVODINA from divided Yugoslavia. At the end of 1944, the Serbs reoccupied Bacska, which has belonged to Serbia ever since.

Mira Stupica pamti jedno štrkljasto i visoko dete, krakato, okato, nosato i pomalo dremljivo, koje je kapke imalo uvek napola spuštene, kao roletne. I u sećanju Aleksandra–Luja Todorovića javlja se u istoj slici: visok, štrkljast, šiljat, neopisivo mršav. Vojislavu Kostiću je, tako visok i mršav, sa šišanom bradom, ličio na Don Kihota. Ivana Dimić je imala dvanaest godina kad ga je prvi put videla, na slavi na koju je došla s roditeljima. Među gostima se izdvajao visok, mršav, duhovit čovek koji je psovao. Ogroman, tamnog lica i brade, izgledao joj je kao neki Azijat. Aleksandar–Saša Gruden seća ga se kao klinca koji je s majkom došao kod očeve rodbine u Užice. Prilog opštem utisku: štkljast, nosat, s ogromnim kolenima. Kad su ga upitali kako je, odgovorio je: »Zaštopal mi se nosek.« Posle je objašnjavao da je imao jezički problem: »Govorio sam hrvatski.« Dolasku u Užice 1941. godine prethodi prva velika životna avantura. Od ranih dana naučio je da svet i ljude vidi u slikama. U slikama Zadra, u koji se porodica 1939. seli iz Zagreba, kada je otac Sreten postavljen za vicekonzula Kraljevskog konzulata, prelamaju se, između ostalih, prizori ogromnog stana u kome, po jednom dugačkom hodniku, vozi bicikl.

  • Serbia in 2001 Under the Spotlight
    1 Human Rights in Transition – Serbia 2001 Introduction The situation of human rights in Serbia was largely influenced by the foregoing circumstances. Although the severe repression characteristic especially of the last two years of Milosevic’s rule was gone, there were no conditions in place for dealing with the problems accumulated during the previous decade. All the mechanisms necessary to ensure the exercise of human rights - from the judiciary to the police, remained unchanged. However, the major concern of citizens is the mere existential survival and personal security. Furthermore, the general atmosphere in the society was just as xenophobic and intolerant as before. The identity crisis of the Serb people and of all minorities living in Serbia continued. If anything, it deepened and the relationship between the state and its citizens became seriously jeopardized by the problem of Serbia’s undefined borders. The crisis was manifest with regard to certain minorities such as Vlachs who were believed to have been successfully assimilated. This false belief was partly due to the fact that neighbouring Romania had been in a far worse situation than Yugoslavia during the past fifty years. In considerably changed situation in Romania and Serbia Vlachs are now undergoing the process of self identification though still unclear whether they would choose to call themselves Vlachs or Romanians-Vlachs. Considering that the international factor has become the main generator of change in Serbia, the Helsinki Committee for Human Rights in Serbia believes that an accurate picture of the situation in Serbia is absolutely necessary. It is essential to establish the differences between Belgrade and the rest of Serbia, taking into account its internal diversities.

  • ABSTRACT Title of Document: the FURTHEST
    ABSTRACT Title of Document: THE FURTHEST WATCH OF THE REICH: NATIONAL SOCIALISM, ETHNIC GERMANS, AND THE OCCUPATION OF THE SERBIAN BANAT, 1941-1944 Mirna Zakic, Ph.D., 2011 Directed by: Professor Jeffrey Herf, Department of History This dissertation examines the Volksdeutsche (ethnic Germans) of the Serbian Banat (northeastern Serbia) during World War II, with a focus on their collaboration with the invading Germans from the Third Reich, and their participation in the occupation of their home region. It focuses on the occupation period (April 1941-October 1944) so as to illuminate three major themes: the mutual perceptions held by ethnic and Reich Germans and how these shaped policy; the motivation behind ethnic German collaboration; and the events which drew ethnic Germans ever deeper into complicity with the Third Reich. The Banat ethnic Germans profited from a fortuitous meeting of diplomatic, military, ideological and economic reasons, which prompted the Third Reich to occupy their home region in April 1941. They played a leading role in the administration and policing of the Serbian Banat until October 1944, when the Red Army invaded the Banat. The ethnic Germans collaborated with the Nazi regime in many ways: they accepted its worldview as their own, supplied it with food, administrative services and eventually soldiers. They acted as enforcers and executors of its policies, which benefited them as perceived racial and ideological kin to Reich Germans. These policies did so at the expense of the multiethnic Banat‟s other residents, especially Jews and Serbs. In this, the Third Reich replicated general policy guidelines already implemented inside Germany and elsewhere in German-occupied Europe.
