Osteuropawissenschaft im Krieg. Herausforderungen der epochalen Zeitenwende
Der Holodomor, die NS-Propaganda in der Ukraine und ihr schwieriges Erbe
Tanja Penter und Dmytro Tytarenko beleuchten einen bislang kaum beachteten Aspekt deutsch-ukrainischer Verflechtungsgeschichte im Zusammenhang mit der großen Hungersnot der Jahre 1932/33. Sie untersuchen, wie die Hungerkatastrophe in der Ukraine, über die man unter Stalin nicht öffentlich sprechen durfte, in der deutschen Besatzungspresse zwischen 1941 und 1944 erstmals öffentlich thematisiert und propagandistisch instrumentalisiert wurde. Ausgeh…
Instrumentalisiert, verdrängt, ignoriert
Germany was well informed about the famine in Ukraine in 1932/33. Diplomats sent reports of what was happening, and church organisations began collecting aid for the victims. German engineers and labourers working on installations in the country were eye witnesses to what occurred. The first academic study of the catastrophe was conducted in 1941 under German occupation, and the results were extensively exploited for propaganda purposes. The Germ…
Soviet federalism from below
In early 1918, the Bolshevik-dominated Third Congress of Soviets declared the formation of a new composite polity—the Soviet Russian Republic. The congress’s resolutions, however, simultaneously proclaimed a federation of national republics and a federation of soviets. The latter seemed to recognize regionalism and localism as organizing principles on par with nationalism and to legitimize the self-proclaimed Soviet republics across the former Ru…
Vergessene Opfer von Mord und Missbrauch
In November 1943, shortly after the liberation of the occupied territories by the Red Army, three mass graves with 144 corpses were discovered in a former colony for disabled children in the Zaporizhia region. The disabled inmates had been shot in two mass murder actions by German SS and Wehrmacht units in October 1941 and in March 1943. During the course of the investigations into the case in 1944 by the People's Commissariat for Internal Affair…
Soviet Nuclear Technoscience
weapons, believed that a time was coming "in which at any given moment we have the power to transform any given place on our planet, and even our planet itself, into a Hiroshima." The speculative anticipation of an atomic inferno created an atmosphere in which neither disarmament nor demobilization was possible and the "self-sustained conflict" 6 of the Cold War became a "radical age." The goal of the nuclear powers was not only to build weapons …
La technoscience nucléaire soviétique
En 1904, Frederick Soddy, lauréat du prix Nobel en 1921 pour ses recherches en radiochimie, spéculait sur le fait que le décodage, puis le déchaînement des forces prodigieuses de l’atome permettraient aux « nouveaux alchimistes » de « verdir les déserts, de fondre la calotte polaire et de transformer la terre entière en un plaisant jardin d’Éden ». Il prédisait aussi que l’État qui posséderait les premières armes atomiques opérationnelles conquer…

From a Local Erfahrungsgeschichte of Holodomor to a Global History of Famines
In German historiography, the Ukrainian famine has not received adequate attention. A few exceptions exist, such as the 2004 special issue of the journal Osteuropa edited by Gerhard Simon and Rudolf Mark, but no single monograph in the German language nor any research project deals with the Holodomor . Moreover, amongst the broader German public, the Soviet famine of 1932–3 is relatively unknown, despite being one of the great catastrophes in twe…
Local memory on war, German occupation and postwar years
An oral history project in the DonbassThis article presents the findings of a small oral history project carried out during the years 2001-2010 in the Eastern ukrainian Donbass region.the Donbass, located in today's Eastern ukraine, was until the 1960s the main coal region of the Soviet union. 1 under Stalin's forced industrialisation of the 1930s, the region experienced an enormous economic development and population growth, and became a leading…
Local memory on war, German occupation and postwar years
The article presents the findings of an oral history project carried out between 2001 and 2010 in the Donbass region, the main coal basin of the former Soviet Union until the 1960s. Following a narrative biographical approach, the respondents’ accounts combine their everyday life experiences during the 22 months of German occupation during World War II with their pre- and postwar experiences. Special attention is given to how the respondents deal…
Local Collaborators on Trial
Les collaborateurs locaux devant la justice : les procès pour crimes de guerre en Union soviétique sous Stalin (1943-1953)L’Union soviétique de l’après-guerre a été confrontée à un très grand nombre de procès intentés aux citoyens soviétiques accusés de collaboration avec les Allemands sous l’Occupation et que l’on qualifiait de « traîtres à la patrie et leurs complices » (izmenniki rodiny and posobniki. Cependant, très peu d’informations sont di…
Collaboration on Trial
Three historians comment on the articles. John Connelly considers the moral and historiographical meanings of "collaboration" and "collaborationism" and suggests that even those cases that Friedrich documents do not make Poland into a collaborationist country. In fact, the Nazis were disappointed that Poles refused to collaborate. Connelly emphasizes the complicated choices and intentions among the Polish population and calls for bringing togethe…
