Stasi Unterlagen

This collection contains the files of the State Security Service of the GDR that are preserved and administered by the Federal Commissioner for Records of the State Security Service of the former GDR (BstU). The surveillance records of the secret police represent a singular body of sources that offer unique glimpses into the cultural opposition to the GDR. The destruction of large numbers of these documents could only be averted in 1989/90 owing to the spirited actions of “Civil Committees”.

本集合收录了前德意志民主共和国国家安全部保管的文件，这些文件由前GDR国家安全部档案专员联邦专员（BstU）保存和管理。秘密警察的监视记录构成了一个独特的史料集，提供了对GDR文化抵抗的独特洞察。这些大量文件的销毁之所以在1989/90年间得以避免，正是因为‘市民委员会’的英勇行动。” }
