Slovenian State Security Administration's Surveillance of Maks Samec, ad hoc collection

The collection of the Slovenian State Security Administration's (UDB-a) surveillance materials about Maks Samec illustrates the mechanism and extent of control exercised by the UDB-a against a Slovenian scientist (chemist) of the older generation (Maks Samec). After 1945, Samec was perceived as an irreplaceable scientist, but also politically suspect, even a potential political and ideological adversary, so he was placed under surveillance.

本数据集收录了斯洛文尼亚国家安全局（UDB-a）对老一代斯洛文尼亚科学家（化学家）马克斯·萨梅克的监控资料，生动展现了UDB-a对其实施的监控机制与控制范围。自1945年起，萨梅克被视为无可替代的科学家，然而在政治上也存有嫌疑，甚至可能成为政治与意识形态上的对手，因此他成为了监控对象。
