The Gulag and Czechoslovakia: The Great Terror

Gulag a Československo. Velký terror (The Gulag and Czechoslovakia: The Great Terror), the second instalment of a book series mapping the history of repression of Czechoslovaks in the Soviet Union, will be presented by leading Czech experts on the subject. During the evening, they will explore the fate of Czechoslovaks during the USSR’s bloodiest period, when, during the two years of the Great Terror, thousands were sentenced to death or many years of forced labour in the Gulag and exile. They will also discuss research in Ukraine and Russia during the ongoing war, documented places of memory and the commemoration of victims of the Soviet regime.
