Please note that the library has a complete run of Slavi︠a︡ne from 1942-1958 and one can request an electronic copy of a specific article from the NRLF (http://oskicat.berkeley.edu/record=b12311784~S58)

A brief description of the resource from Eastview is below: “Founded in 1942 at the height of the Great Patriotic War by the All-Slavic Committee, a Soviet anti-fascist organization, Slaviane (Slavs) was a monthly magazine that saw its mission as one of “rallying Slavic peoples together in alliance with all freedom-loving peoples to fight against Nazi Germany and its vassals.” The editors sought to achieve their main goal by exposing the “predatory and rapacious policies of Hitlerites, their hate-filled program aimed at the elimination of Slavic peoples and their centuries-old culture,” as the magazine’s mission statement put it.”
