New Archival Documents on the Finnish Occupation of Karelia (1941—1944)

The relevance of the article is due to the special importance of preserving historical memory for modern society about the genocide of the Nazis and their allies in the occupied territory of the USSR during the Great Patriotic War. Its novelty is determined by the introduction of extensive archival material into scientific circulation, on the basis of which numerous aspects of the content of civilians in Finnish concentration camps are studied: the difficult situation with food; the nature of the work performed by prisoners; quarantine measures of the occupation regime in the camps; facts of war crimes of the Finnish occupiers against prisoners. Particular attention is paid to the causes of high mortality in Finnish concentration camps in 1941—1944
