Physical and psychological terror implemented in the spirit of communist ideology generally accompanied the Soviet Union’s self-assertion in occupied territories. Yet the long-term administration of society by way of terror and violence alone is not sustainable. Part of the subjugated population was more willing to collaborate and conform. The regime had to offer this population segment a positive programme that they could go along with.
This edition of the Proceedings of the Estonian Institute of Historical Memory examines some of the methods that were used to establish and shape the new social order, including information policy and migration policy, putting together a pseudo-assembly of people’s representatives, and propaganda work in the sphere of history policy. The latter was, among other things, manifested in the destruction of monuments from the period of Estonian independence and in the erection of new monuments.
