Name der Sammlung

• Collection of Testimonies at the Study Centre for National Reconciliation in Ljubljana

Sammlungsgeschichte und kulturelle Aktivitäten

• The Multimedia Collection of Testimonies (Arhiv pričevanj – Archive of Testimonies) at the Study Centre for National Reconciliation in Ljubljana was established at the same time as the Centre in May 2008. The Centre is a government institution working under the Ministry of Justice. Prior to the establishment of the Centre as a separate scholarly and research institution, it operated as the Sector for Redressing of Injustices and National Reconciliation within the framework of the Ministry of Justice. The Centre was established with the intention of researching the totalitarian systems that existed in Slovenia in the 20^th century – fascism, national socialism and communism. Given that fascist and Nazi repression in Slovenia has been more explored, the Centre is primarily focused on researching human rights violations in the communist era.

  In the Collection of Testimonies, there are about 350 audio or video recordings of testimonies collected since 2009. Recorded testimonies are from people who have experienced some form of violence or human rights violations in World War II and its aftermath. The main purpose of this collection is to memorialise, but also bring catharsis and reconciliation to individuals, ideological opponents and Slovenian society as a whole. The Centre actually helps to deal with the trauma on families and the Slovenian society as a whole left by the totalitarian systems of the 20^th century. The majority of the oral testimonies refer to victims who spoke about what happened, mostly after the war in 1945, while the smaller part is about everyday life under socialism.

  Andreja Valič Zver believes that the "culture of silence" dominated in Yugoslavia because the discussion of wartime and post-war suffering was prohibited, and that is why there is an even greater need today to research and write about these issues. The Centre is particularly focused on getting young people familiar with and aware of the suffering in the 20^th century by holding workshops at the Centre and in schools and organizing excursions for young people to visit prisons, all aimed at providing young people with a clearer picture of what democracy is and what human rights are (Valič Zver, interview, July 6, 2017).

  The Study Centre for National Reconciliation engages in wide-ranging activities to present the contents of the Archive of Testimonies. This activity largely consists of publishing the results of research in the form of scholarly monographs and collections of documents, organizing scholarly and professional conferences in Slovenia and participating in conferences abroad, organizing workshops and forums open to the public, and excursions to places of suffering in the territory of Slovenia and the former Yugoslavia (e.g., Goli otok in Croatia). Andreja Valič Zver emphasizes that one of the key roles of the Centre is helping to confront the traumas of totalitarian systems in Slovenia. The collection of testimonies is available to researchers and the interested public by prior arrangement.
