Viac o knihe
The NKVD, KGB, KDS, MfS, Bezpieka, Securitate, StB, AVH, and the secret police of the Soviet bloc represent immense suffering and the rigidity of an ideologically driven system. They left behind tens of thousands of dead and millions of political prisoners and persecuted individuals. Only after the collapse of state socialism was it possible to reveal their secret history. The Handbook of the Communist Security Apparatus is a unique compendium of this research. An international team of leading experts analyzes the security apparatuses of all Eastern Bloc countries in Europe. Based on extensive sources, 14 authors from 7 countries present the secret police in their historical development and portray them in detail. In addition to the apparatus, personnel, and budget, they illuminate the intertwining within political hierarchies, the directions and methods of persecution, and their victims. Short biographies of leading secret policemen and a photo section with images from all countries complete the handbook.
