Specialists, Spies, “Special Settlers”, and Prisoners of War: Social Frictions in the Kuzbass (USSR), 1920–1950
IRSH 60 (2015), Special Issue, pp. 185–205 doi:10.1017/S0020859015000462 © 2015 Internationaal Instituut voor Sociale Geschiedenis Specialists, Spies, “Special Settlers”, and Prisoners of War: Social Frictions in the Kuzbass (USSR), 1920–1950 J ULIA L ANDAU Buchenwald Memorial 99427 Weimar-Buchenwald, Germany E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT: The Kuzbass coalmining region in western Siberia (Kuznetsk Basin) was explored, populated, and exploited under Stalin’s rule. Struggling to offset a high labour turnover, the local state-run coal company enrolled deportees from other regions of Russia and Siberia, who were controlled by the secret police (OGPU). These workers shared a common experience in having been forcibly separated from their place of origin. At the same time, foreigners were recruited from abroad as experts and offered a privileged position. In the years of the Great Terror (1936−1938) both groups were persecuted, as they were regarded by the state as disloyal and suspicious. After the war, foreigners were recruited in large numbers as prisoners of war. Thus, migrants, foreigners, and deportees from other regions and countries constituted a significant part of the workforce in the Kuzbass, while their status constantly shifted due to economic needs and repressive politics. From the beginning of the twentieth century, after the building of the Trans- Siberian Railway, the economic resources of Siberia became the subject of political consideration and planning efforts by the Russian and later the Soviet state. The Kuzbass region in western Siberia amazed Soviet planners with its vast supply of very high-quality coal – the layers of coal measuring from 1.5 to 20 metres.1 The content of ash (about 10 per cent) and sulphur (between 0.4 and 0.7 per cent) was comparatively low. -

Erinnerung an Ruth Von Mayenburg
Erinnerung an Ruth von Mayenburg https://www.mironde.com/litterata/1010/essay/erinnerung-an-ruth-von-mayenburg Erinnerung an Ruth von Mayenburg von Johannes Eichenthal - erschienen in der Litterata am Mittwoch, Dezember 28, 2011 https://www.mironde.com/litterata/1010/essay/erinnerung-an-ruth-von-mayenburg Im Sommer 1937 wandte sich der in Moskau lebende Ernst Fischer, Publizist und Beauftragter der KP Österreichs bei der Komintern aus Sorge um seine junge, schöne Frau Ruth im Beisein von Georgi Dimitroff an Semjon Petrovitch Uritzki, den Chef der GRU, der Hauptabteilung Aufklärung der Roten Armee. Ruth war in deren Auftrag konspirativ in Deutschland unterwegs und hatte hier unter anderem auch Kontakt zu Generaloberst Kurt von Hammerstein-Equord, der die nationalsozialistische Politik ablehnte und den Rücktritt von seinen Funktionen in der Reichswehr vollzogen hatte. Ernst Fischer war der Meinung, dass die Gestapo wissen müsse, dass Ruth von Mayenburg seine Frau sei und durch ihn, den Kominternfunktionär und entschiedenen Antifaschisten, in ihrer nachrichtendienstlichen Tätigkeit gefährdet sei. Sie solle wie er lieber für die Komintern arbeiten. Ruth, die bei dieser Unterredung zugegen war, bekräftigte, dass sie selbst keine Angst habe. Uritzki argumentierte, dass die Arbeit für die Rote Armee wichtiger sei, denn »am Ende wird es die Rote Armee sein, worauf es ankommt. Alles werden wir zu tragen haben ... dass Sie in der Komintern arbeiten, ist für Ihre Frau nicht gut. Aber die Arbeit Ihrer Frau ist wichtiger, verzeihen Sie.« Uritzki setzte sich durch, Ruth, die nur auf Urlaub gekommen war, reist wieder ab. Wochenlang hörte Fischer nichts von seiner Frau. Als er auf dessen geheimer Telefonnummer Uritzki anrief, meldete sich dort eine Frauenstimme: »So einen gibt es bei uns nicht.« Dann war die Verbindung unterbrochen. -

Thesis Engagement et identité : les militants antifascistes des organisations Freies Deutschland de l'exil à l'Ouest (Belgique, France, Suisse) à la RDA des années 1970 (1943-1975) HEINIGER, Alix Abstract Les exilés allemands en Europe de l'Ouest ont cherché à poursuivre leur engagement contre le régime qui les a poussé à fuir leur pays de diverses manières. En 1943, une partie d'entre eux ont fondé les organisations Freies Deutschland en Belgique, en France et en Suisse. Cette thèse analyse les modalités de leur engagement militant et les conditions de sa perpétuation entre la Seconde Guerre mondiale et l'après guerre en RDA. Elle pose également la question de l'identité de ces militants et de sa reconfiguration au fil du temps. La majorité d'entre eux étant communistes, ils ont suivi l'exemple de leurs dirigeants réfugiés à Moscou qui ont créé le Nationalkomitee "Freies Deutschland". A leurs débuts, ces trois organisations sont clandestines et poursuivent une lutte multiforme contre le régime nazi façonnée par les possibilités d'action offertes par leur espace d'exil. A l'approche de la fin de la guerre, les Freies Deutschland accèdent à la légalité et reconfigurent leurs activités et leurs objectifs en fonction de cette nouvelle situation. Elles tentent de rassembler les Allemands [...] Reference HEINIGER, Alix.

Durch die Aufhebung der allgemein üblichen 30-Jahres-Frist für die Benutzung von Archivalien war es möglich diesen Teil der Geschichte der DDR zeitnah zu beschreiben. Die Quellenmaterialien stammen im Wesentlichen aus dem Jugendarchiv (JA) der „Freien Deutschen Jugend“ (FDJ) und aus dem Zentralen Parteiarchiv (ZPA) der „Sozialistischen Einheitspartei Deutschlands“ (SED), die mittlerweile im Bundes-Archiv (BArch) in Berlin-Lichterfelde (Abteilung DDR, Stiftung Archive Parteien Massenor- ganisationen, SAPMO) wieder zu finden sind. -

The GDR in the Context of Stalinist Show Trials and Anti-Semitism In
The GDR in the Context of Stalinist Show Trials and Anti-Semitism in Eastern Europe 1948-54 Downloaded from https://academic.oup.com/gh/article-abstract/10/3/302/685594 by ESIEE Paris user on 05 May 2019 Paul O’Doherty (University of Nottingham) Introduction In the period 1948-54 a large number of show trials were staged in the East European countries which were under Soviet domination. The German Democratic Republic did not escape this wave of trials, though they were staged on a much smaller scale there than elsewhere. Historians writing on the show trials do not seem agreed on whether the GDR should be included in ‘Eastern Europe’. Lendvai, in 1971, for example, merely comments that ‘in a more distant past’ East Germany had also had ‘anti-Semitism as an official policy, as a witch hunt’, and then goes on to deal with all the countries where ‘Zionism’ was a charge made against any defendants, but leaves out the GDR.’ Hodos, on the other hand, who outlines the trials without concentrating specifically on their anti-Semitic aspects, looks at all seven countries allied to the Soviet Union, including the GDR.’ It is no coincidence that a study which concentrates on the anti-Semitic aspects of the trials should leave out the GDR, despite Lendvai’s claim about the ‘more distant past’. Whilst there was a high proportion of defendants of Jewish origin in many of the trials staged, especially in Czechoslovakia, Hungary and Poland, this was true of only a small number of cases in the GDR. -
Stalinism Revisited Stalinism Revisited
CYAN MAGENTA YELLOW BLACK Stalinism Revisited Stalinism Revisited Stalinism Revisited brings together representatives of multiple generations to create a rich examination The Establishment of Communist Regimes in East-Central Europe of the study and practice of Stalinism. While the articles are uniformly excellent, the book’s signal contribution is to bring recent research from Eastern European scholars to an English-speaking audience. Thus the volume is not just a “state of the discipline” collection, in which articles are collected to reflect that current situation of scholarship in a given field; instead, this one includes cutting edge scholarship that will prompt more of the same from other scholars in other fields/subfields. I would recommend this book highly to anyone interested in understanding the technology of Stalinism in both StalinismStalinism thought and practice. Nick Miller Boise State University The Sovietization of post-1945 East-Central Europe—marked by the forceful imposition of the Soviet- type society in the region—was a process of massive socio-political and cultural transformation. Despite its paramount importance for understanding the nature of the communist regime and its RevisitedRevisited legacy, the communist take-over in East Central European countries has remained largely under- researched. Two decades after the collapse of the communist system,Stalinism Revisited brings together a remarkable international team of established and younger scholars, engaging them in a critical re-evaluation of the institutionalization of communist regimes in East-Central Europe and of the period of “high Stalinism.” Sovietization is approached not as a fully pre-determined, homogeneous, and monolithic transformation, but as a set of trans-national, multifaceted, and inter-related processes of large-scale institutional and ideological transfers, made up of multiple “takeovers” in various fields. -

The Berlin Radio War: Broadcasting in Cold War Berlin and the Shaping of Political Culture in Divided Germany, 1945- 1961
ABSTRACT Title of Dissertation: THE BERLIN RADIO WAR: BROADCASTING IN COLD WAR BERLIN AND THE SHAPING OF POLITICAL CULTURE IN DIVIDED GERMANY, 1945- 1961 Nicholas J. Schlosser, Ph.D. 2008 Dissertation Directed By: Professor Jeffrey Herf, Department of History This dissertation explores how German radio journalists shaped political culture in the two postwar Germanys. Specifically, it examines the development of broadcast news reporting in Berlin during the first sixteen years of the Cold War, focusing on the reporters attached to the American sponsored station RIAS 1 Berlin and the radio stations of the German Democratic Republic. During this period, radio stations on both sides of the Iron Curtain waged a media war in which they fought to define the major events of the early Cold War. The tension between objectivity and partisanship in both East and West Berlin came to define this radio war. Radio stations constantly negotiated this tension in an attempt to encourage listeners to adopt a specific political worldview and forge a bond between broadcaster and listener. Whereas East German broadcasters ultimately eschewed objectivity in favor of partisan news reporting defined by Marxist- Leninist ideology, RIAS attempted to combine factual reporting with concerted efforts to undermine the legitimacy of the German Democratic Republic. The study contributes to a number of fields of study. First, I contribute to scholarship that has examined the nature, development, and influence of political culture. 1 Radio in the American Sector Related to this, the study considers how political ideas were received and understood by listeners. This work also adds to a growing field of scholarship that goes beyond examining the institutional histories of Germany’s broadcasters and analyzes how German broadcasters influenced society itself. -
