ПЕРЕДАЧА АРХИВНЫХ МАТЕРИАЛОВ ПОЛЬСКОГО ПРОИСХОЖДЕНИЯ ИЗ БССР В ПОЛЬШУ В 1955 – НАЧАЛЕ 1960-Х ГГ.

Abstract

Wars, revolutions, and social conflicts always influence the cultural values of any state. From the occupied territories, cultural values, including archival documents, pass under the jurisdiction of the state in whose territory they are located. Archival documents of Polish origin were more than once under the jurisdiction of the Soviet Union. In the mid-1950s, the Polish government asked the USSR government to return to Poland documentary materials relating to the history of Poland. This issue was considered, and the government of the USSR allowed the partial transfer of archives to the Polish Republic. The transfer of archival documents was directly connected with Belarus since its western territory at various times was part of the Polish state. From 1955 to 1963, documents relating to the history of Poland were transferred to Poland from the archives of Belarus.
