Praca zbiorowa

Dwujęzyczny, interdyscyplinarny rocznik, służący za forum dla międzynarodowej wymiany myśli, prezentowania wyników badań monograficznych, prac syntetyzujących czy refleksji metodologicznej. Poświęcony studiom nad XX wiekiem, a w szczególności nad problematyką totalitaryzmów. W najnowszym tomie zostały poruszone zagadnienia związane z pierwszymi latami II wojny światowej, okresem, w którym systemy totalitarne III Rzeszy i Związku Sowieckiego rościły sobie prawa do anihilacji ówczesnego porządku i budowy na jego gruzach „nowego ładu”. Zakres tematyczny jest dość szeroki, obejmuje bowiem wypadki z wielu krajów Europy, a także spoza kontynentu.

Pojęcie narodowości polskiej Gestapo rozumiało w sensie ściśle etnicznym. Nie było jednak konsekwentne w stosowaniu kryterium przynależności do inteligencji. Oprócz nauczycieli i urzędników aresztowano także wielu robotników, rolników i rzemieślników. Podstawą do zatrzymania był nie tylko zawód, lecz także – między innymi – przynależność do organizacji politycznych i społecznych w II Rzeczypospolitej. Aresztowaniem były zagrożone wszystkie osoby, które według Gestapo mogły zaangażować się w działalność w tworzącej się konspiracji.

This is the first volume of "Chronicles of Terror" to deal exclusively with the victims of Soviet repression; it contains the testimonies of Polish soldiers who were taken into Soviet captivity in 1939–1941. These soldiers went on to join Anders’ Army and noted their experiences in questionnaires prepared by the Military Historical Bureau in the Middle East in 1943.
