Available Sources for the Study of the White Terror.
Sources concerning the White Terror are scattered all over the world. Russian archives are probably the most useful. In France, a large range of documents allows us to overcome the traditional belief, which examines the phenomenon as a whole series of improvised excesses in very troubled times, neither intentional nor agreed by the High Command. Records of the small government of the White général Judeni and Memoirs of emigrated anti-Bolshevik Russians lead us to consider that the White Command set up almost everywhere an ill-organized military-judicial system to exterminate Bolsheviks and even unarmed exassociates of the Soviet power. Some members of the White movement regretted an ordinary terror. Even local independent White satraps might have established an effective repression. When they rejected the White rule, moderate socialists became the witnesses to the White Terror, using testimonies as propaganda. French army officers, which helped the White armies, saw this repression and sometimes, while using espionnage, discovered some of the wheels of the White Terror. It included a large spectrum of victims that widely overcame the narrow circle of Bolsheviks. Source : Éditeur (via Persée) |
