The opening of secret archives of communist security services in 1990s brought about a breakthrough in the research on the history of East-Central European political émigrés. Thus the activities of communist security services directed against political émigrés will be the central topic of an international conference organized by the Institute of National Remembrance in Lublin, Poland from 20th to 21st November 2008. The conference will be structured in 4 parts - we envisage 21 papers and a panel discussion.
All those interested in attending the conference are invited - either as speakers, discussants or members of the audience. The conference organizers will provide the accommodation and board to authors of presentations free of charge as well as will reimburse them their travel expenses (up to the amount of 600 Euro in the case of speakers from European countries and up to the amount of 1200 Euro in the case of others). Other conference participants will have hotel rooms at the conference venue booked (the number of rooms is limited).
