The Association of Persecutees of the Nazi Regime/Federation of Antifascists (''Vereinigung der Verfolgten des Naziregimes – Bund der Antifaschistinnen und Antifaschisten'') (VVN-BdA) is a confederation founded in 1947 and based in Berlin. The VVN-BdA, formerly the VVN, emerged from victims' associations in Germany founded after the Second World War and the end of the Nazi dictatorship by political opponents to Nazism. During the Cold War the VVN was subject of political struggles between East and West Germany. In the West, the association was seen as dominated by the Communist Party (KPD), in the East, the VVN was accused of spying. In 1953, the VVN was abolished in the GDR and, instead, the Committee of Antifascist Resistance Fighters was founded. Since 2002, the association extends to entire Germany including camp communities of former prisoners of the concentration camps as incorporated associations. The VVN-BdA tell that it is the biggest antifascist organisation in the Federal Republic of Germany. ==Purpose of the association== The VVN-BdA is characterised as an independent organisation, with a focus of resistance against fascism and war as its defining moral principle. In West Germany, the organisation was seen as taking its lead from the Communist Party of Germany (KPD) in the 1950s, and after 1968 of being controlled from the top by German Communist Party (DKP) members. Nevertheless the spread of membership continues to comes from a wide range of political elements, including orthodox communists, members of the party Die Linke and political independents along with Green Party members and Social Democrats (in spite of a dissenting resolution of adopted by the Social Democratic Party (SPD) which remained in force till October 25, 2010). The VVN-BdA is a member of the Fédération Internationale des Résistants (International Federation of Resistance Fighters), along with organisations from all over Europe and from Israel. 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「Union of Persecutees of the Nazi Regime」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
