The Centre Supported the Petition for Saving the Hungarian StB Archives

Last year, Hungary announced its intention to adopt a law that would enable the state to destroy the original archive documents on the acitivies of the communist "state security", StB, Ministry of the Interior, and police.

As a reaction to this activity, international petition was organized, supported by personalities such as Lavinia Stan (St Francis Xavier University) or Christopher Adam (Carleton University). The petition was also supported by the Czech Centre for Human Rights and Democratization of the IIPS MU.
