Abstract:
The publication describes the activity of Polish theater during the Second World War. It is an attempt to look at theater from the perspective of the tasks and values it presented in this particularly difficult period. The article describes the functioning of open and underground theaters and theaters operating in concentration camps. The above-mentioned activities cannot be reduced to one formula or a specific species. In these conditions, the artistic level and innovation of many performances amaze. Paradoxically, this most dramatic theater achieved its greatest autonomy during the occupatio

Abstract:
Contrary to the previous political regime of the Slovak state (1939–1945), official policy had significantly changed in the renewed Czechoslovakia after the end of World War II, but anti-Jewish sentiments and even their brachial demonstrations somewhat framed the everyday reality of Jewish survivors who were returning to their homes from liberated concentration camps or hiding places. Their attempts to reintegrate into the society where they had used to live regularly came across intolerance, hatred and social exclusion, further strengthened by classical anti-Semitic stereotypes and prejudices

Abstract:
This article analyzes the process of creating the German camp system in Poland. The Nazi racial politics towards the Jews promoted their isolation from the so-called "full part of society". For this purpose, two main mechanisms for their separation were created: concentration camps, some of which were transformed into "factories of death", and Jewish ghettos. The establishment of concentration camps in Poland was preceded by a long process of organizational and legal registration first in Germany itself, and later on the territories occupied by it. This process was accompanied by numerous Jewi

AbstractA sharp debate has emerged about the importance of humanitarian organisations speaking out against misdeeds and, more generally, on the ethical and moral aspects of doing humanitarian work in the face of mass violence.

The aim of this text is to scrutinize the ICRC's humanitarian operations for detainees of Nazi concentration camps during the final phase of the war in Europe. We look beyond the risks faced by

Over the next few years, the entire community of Maltese Tripolini – all British subjects by birth or ancestry who for decades had been settled in Tripoli and Benghazi – faced detention, exile, expulsion, and deportation. The Italian Governor of Libya cited the need ‘to repress the espionage inherent in treacherous elements’ among the ‘political and military reasons’ for the deportations.

Abstract From 1933 to 1939, the Nazi concentration camps were sites of terror, torture, and deliberate killing. But they were not sites of mass murder. The early camps were designed for political repression. Within the first year of Nazi rule, about seventy concentration camps were set up, plus thirty ‘protective custody sections’ in prisons. But by mid-1934, most prisoners had been released, and the existence of the camps was in jeopardy. Why the camps survived is explained by the institutional infighting within the regime, from which the SS under Himmler emerged as victor, gaining control ov

The punishment of katorga, the harshest form of forced labour, was reintroduced for the ‘worst’ criminals. Prisoner of war camps were closely associated with the Gulag.
