Vloga tega dokumenta je bila ohranitev spomina na vse preganjane duhovnike ljubljanske škofije, se pravi tiste, ki so bili umorjeni in v zaporih. Samo dejstvo, da je bil seznam narejen, je bilo izziv za oblasti. Dokument je shranjen v tajnosti in je služil kot opozorilo škofu in tudi javnosti o razsežnosti pregona. Danes je dragocen spomenik okoliščinam, v katerih je nastal, kakor tudi njenemu avtorju. Ohranjen je v zapuščini Antona Vovka v škatli 74. Dostop do tega seznama je brezplačen.

Gre za eksistencialistični roman slovenskega emigrantskega pisatelja, pesnika in esejista Zorka Simčiča, ki je to knjigo napisal v Buenos Airesu leta 1957. Roman slovi kot prvo eksistencialistično književno delo v slovenskem jeziku in kot največji dosežek slovenske emigrantske književnosti na sploh. Pozneje je izšel v prevodih v angleščini, poljščini  in madžarskem jeziku. Slovensko izdajo je roman doživel šele po demokratičnih spremembah leta 1991, kar dokazuje dejstvo, da je bil Simčič prepovedan in nezaželen avtor v socialistični Sloveniji.

Roman govori o slovenskem intelektualcu, ki po vojni odhaja v emigracijo v Argentino. Skozi njegov lik in usodo Simčič opisuje ideološke razdelitve med Slovenci med drugo svetovno vojno in po njej. Toda  roman se ne ukvarja z zunanjimi dogodki, ampak z intimno dramo slovenskega intelektualca, ki ga po vojni morijo vojni spomini in nemiri begunca. Ne samo, da je ostal brez svoje domovine, ampak se zaradi želje, da ostane zvest svoji soprogi, ko se zaljubi v drugo žensko, ki povrh tega pripada nasprotni ideološki strani, bori z notranjimi duševnimi razkoli.

Knjiga Ljube Sirca, slovenskega emigranta in ekonomista liberalne usmeritve, je posvečena kritiki jugoslovanskega samoupravnega socializma. Sirc z ekonomsko analizo dokazuje, da je jugoslovanska ekonomija v okviru samoupravnega modela obsojena na zlom, ker jo vodijo globoko zakoreninjena utopistična in antiekonomistična razmišljanja.   

"Spartakus" was a newspaper of the Federal Trade Union “Freedom” (Zawodowy Związek Federacyjny “Wolność”), founded in Tricity by Zbigniew Stybel – one of the key members of the anarchistic Alternative Society Movement. The Federal Trade Union “Freedom” was founded under state socialism and was the first anarchistic trade union after war. Initially its activity was limited to helping conscientious objectorsdoing civilian service instead of mandatory military training based on conscription. Stybel, who stayed out of the anarchistic centre, noticed that people who managed to get a replacement service, were usual made to do very hard and humiliating jobs. Based on this realization, he had an idea to establish a trade union as an organization which could help people in such situation. With time the activities of FTU “Freedom” were broadened to offering help in other work environments.

Unlike other anarchist magazines (like “A Capella”), the “Spartakus” did not have the typical qualities of alternative youth magazines. The editorial board was not eager to use counter-cultural visual extravaganza, and the thematic scope concerned mostly workers’ situation and broader socio-political issues. The magazine’s main goal was to sustain communication between the union and people needing its intervention. Such profile of a newspaper was exceptional in the third-circuit press at the turn of the 1980s and 1990s.

Sociology was the official periodical of the Sociological Institute of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences (1972–1990). It was the first journal in Hungary devoted entirely to sociology. It opened a new chapter in the history of Hungarian sociology. Although the conservative ideological campaign led by orthodox Communist leaders made some changes in the editorial staff, Sociology was published continuously until 1990. The manuscript of the first issue from 1972, with the archival documents from 1971, inform us of the beginnings of this important journal. The authors of the first issue –included Zsuzsa Ferge (“Social Structure and the School System”), István Kemény (“Stratification of the Hungarian Working Class”), Iván Szelényi (“Housing System and Social Structure”), and others.
