Overview
During the First World War the survival of hundreds of thousands of Latvian refugees, dispersed across the Russian Empire, overlapped with issues of identity. Latvians in Siberia and the Far East created a refugee organisation complete with military, diplomatic and cultural programmes for themselves and their homeland. The key players attempted to recreate the same organisational trajectories and outcomes during the Second World War, under very different geopolitical conditions. This article presents new archival research and suggests new interpretations of the dynamic nature of political organisation, refugee experience and identity in Latvia through the first half of the twentieth century. Durant la Première Guerre mondiale, la survie de centaines de milliers de réfugiés Lettons, dispersés à travers l'Empire russe, coïncidait avec des questions d'identité. Des Lettons en Sibérie et dans l'Extrême-Orient ont créé une organisation de réfugiés avec des programmes militaire, diplomatique et culturel pour eux-mêmes et pour la patrie. Les acteurs principaux ont essayé de recréer les mêmes trajectoires organisationnelles et leurs conséquences durant la Deuxième Guerre mondiale. Cet article présente une nouvelle recherche archivistique et suggère de nouvelles interprétations de la nature dynamique de l'organisation politique, de l'expérience et de l'identité des réfugiés en Lettonie durant la première moitié du vingtième siècle. Während des Ersten Weltkriegs war die Frage nach dem Überleben hunderttausender lettischer Flüchtlinge, die über das ganze russische Reich zerstreut waren, mit Fragen nationaler und regionaler Identität eng verknüpft. Letten in Sibirien und dem Fernen Osten gründeten eine Flüchtlingsorganisation, welche über militärische, diplomatische und kulturelle Programme für sich und ihr Heimatland verfügte. Nach dem Zweiten Weltkrieg versuchten die zentralen Akteure wieder, unter ganz anderen geopolitischen Bedingungen, die gleichen organisationellen Strukturen zu schaffen. Indem er erstmals zugängige Archivmaterialien auswertet, bietet dieser Artikel eine Neuinterpretation der Dynamik zwischen politischen Organisationen, Flüchtlingserfahrungen und nationaler Identität in Lettland in der ersten Hälfte des zwanzigsten Jahrhunderts.
