Constitutional law as a historical source: national self-awareness in the mirror of constitutions / Surguladze, V   Journal Article
Surguladze, V Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2013.
Summary/Abstract A SIMPLE SURVEY of constitutional law of different countries reveals that the factors involved in the formation of each nation state vary. The examples used in the article and the corresponding countries are grouped according to the factors which determined national self-awareness in each particular case. This classification is fairly conventional since the ideas present in the fundamental laws of different states have much in common. Indeed, the keynotes might be different while individual aspects receive more attention. This does not mean that there are no other, less outstanding yet very similar factors, arguments, statements, and references.

Memoirs of interpreters as a historical source: reports of Russian and German interpreters concerning 22 June 1941 / Salevsky, Heidemarie   Journal Article
Salevsky, Heidemarie Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2014.
Summary/Abstract There exist incompatible depictions of the Second World War, and specifically of the year 1941. Numerous documents from the archives now available in Moscow and Washington invite comparison with the memoirs of contemporary witnesses. The present article first describes the situation in German-Soviet relations before 22 June 1941. Then it contrasts the memoirs of the interpreters involved (in the German Embassy in Moscow, in the Soviet Embassy in Berlin, and at the delivery of the memorandum by Ribbentrop to Dekanozov) with newly available archive material and with the official records of the Nuremberg trial. The goal of this comparison is to form an assessment of these memoirs as subjective historical sources and to arrive at a new evaluation of their reliability.
