Yevsektsiyas (alternative spelling: Evsektsiyas), (ロシア語:Евсекция), the abbreviation of the phrase "Еврейская секция" or "Hebrew Section") were the Jewish sections of the Soviet Communist Party. These sections were established in fall of 1918 with consent of Vladimir Lenin to carry communist revolution to the Jewish masses.〔 Richard Pipes, Russia Under the Bolshevik Regime, New York: Vintage Books, Random House Inc., 1995, ISBN 0-394-50242-6, page 363 〕 The stated mission of these sections was "''destruction of traditional Jewish life, the Zionist movement, and Hebrew culture"''.〔Pipes, page 363, quoted from book by Nora Levin, ''The Jews in the Soviet Union since 1917'', New York, 1988, page 57〕 The sections were staffed mostly by Jewish ex-members of the Bund, which joined Soviet Communist Party in 1921.〔 According to Richard Pipes, "in time, every Jewish cultural and social organization came under assault". However, main emphasis of Yevsektsii was the assault on Jewish religion. Acting together with local Soviet authorities, Evsektsii organized seizures of synagogues in Gomel, Minsk and Kharkov, which were subsequently converted to clubs or Communist centers.〔 The Yevsektsii were disbanded as no longer needed in 1929. Many leading members perished in the Great Purge. The Chairman, Semyon Dimanstein was arrested in 1938 and executed.〔 He was rehabilitated posthumously in 1955, 2 years after the death of Joseph Stalin. ==See also== * History of the Jews in Russia * Communist Party of the Soviet Union * Bolsheviks * Birobidzhan * Komzet * Jewish Communist Party (Poalei Zion)〔Leon, A., "The Jewish Question" 1970, Pathfinder Press, New York, p. 1 - 26〕〔Trotsky, L., "The Russian Revolution," 1959, Doubleday, New York〕 * Bundism 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「Yevsektsiya」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
