Communist Party of Yugoslavia, January 6th dictatorship, Celje, Branko Diehl, Slavko ŠlanderAbstract
The author presents the restoration of the communist activities in the Celje district after the January 6th regime had crippled this movement and many communists had been imprisoned or left the country. The communist actions, as detected by the police, are described. The discussion clarifies the ambiguities regarding the appointment of the Celje district secretary, revealing that this position was allegedly assumed by Branko Diehl rather than Slavko Šlander. The differences between the public and archived memory concerning this issue are presented. The district conference materials attest to the planning as well as the actual processes involved in the gradual reorientation of the communist activities towards establishing legal organisations in the expert, cultural, and professional field. The focus of the communists’ endeavours started to shift from the armed struggle against the dictatorship to the struggle for the everyday demands of workers and peasants and the improvement of their economic, social, and political position.
