Kronid Arkadyevich Lyubarsky ((ロシア語:Крони́д Арка́дьевич Люба́рский); 4 April 1934, Pskov, Soviet Union – 23 May 1996, Bali, Indonesia) was a Russian journalist, dissident, human rights activist and political prisoner. ==Early career== Born in the city of Pskov, Russia, on April 4, 1934, Lyubarsky graduated from the Moscow State University in 1956 and worked as an astrophysicist at the All-Union Institute of Scientific and Technical Information of the USSR Academy of Sciences. His academic work included studies on meteors and space biology. He was also working in the Soviet program of interplanetary exploration of Mars. He authored several books on astrobiology and translated scientific works into Russian, including books by Fred Hoyle.〔http://www.sciencemag.org/cgi/reprint/193/4256/863.pdf〕 == Dissident activity == In the mid-1960s, Lyubarsky became active in the civil rights movement and became an editor of samizdat publications, including the famous ''Chronicle of Current Events''. The periodical, founded in 1968, documented searches, arrests, and court proceedings in Russia and other Soviet states. In January 1972, Luybarsky's apartment was searched by the police and more than 600 documents, manuscripts and books were confiscated. The search was followed by his arrest on charges of anti-Soviet agitation and propaganda three days later. Following his conviction on October 30, 1972, Lyubarsky spent the next five years in various labor camps and prisons in Mordovia, as well as Vladimir Central Prison. While still in camp, he initiated the idea of celebrating a Political Prisoners' Resistance Day. The initiative spread quickly to other camps and prisons. The annual event, celebrated on the anniversary of his trial, later became Russia's Day of Remembrance of the Victims of Political Repressions.〔http://www.rferl.org/content/Rights_Activists_Read_Aloud_SovietEra_Victims_Names/2205350.html〕 After his release, Lyubarsky was placed unter surveilled exile in the town of Tarusa in the Moscow region. During this period, he became one of the managers of the Public Aid Fund set up by the writer Alexander Solzhenitsyn to aid political prisoners, and a member of the Soviet branch of Amnesty International. However, mounting pressures by the authorities and the imminent threat of a renewed arrest forced Lyubarsky and his family into emigration in October 1977. Stripped of his citizenship, he sought political asylum in West Germany. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Kronid Lyubarsky」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
