This is a vintage poster of the French left-wing group Solidarité avec Solidarność (Solidarity with Solidarity) from the early 1980s. This specific copy was reproduced by the organization's regional committee in Roubaix, Nord-Pas-Des-Cales region. It pairs USA and USSR, depicted as Mickey Mouse and Misha the bear, as oppressive regimes trumping human rights in South America and Poland respectively. Misha the bear was the official mascot of the 1980 Moscow Summer Olympics that were boycotted by the United States, several U.S. allies, most of Islamic nations, and the People's Republic of China to protest the 1979 Soviet invasion of Afghanistan. The poster is a rare example of the equation of Moscow and Washington in Western pro-Solidarity propaganda. Author unknown. 

Dokument je opširna analiza Narodne omladine Hrvatske (NOH), a apostrofira pojave koje su smatrane utjecajem zapadnjačke kulture na mlade. Sve su aktivnosti mladih za koje je NOH smatrao da su nastale pod utjecajem Zapada, ujedno smatrane oporbenima jer su bile u nesuglasju sa zadanom ideologijom. U dokumentu se one nabrajaju i analiziraju: bijeg mladih na Zapad kao posljedica idolatrije prema Zapadu, nezadovoljstva režimom ili zbog ekonomskih problema (budući da je do početka 1960-ih legalna emigracija bila uvelike onemogućena); rasprave o slobodi i slobodnoj inicijativi koje, u mjeri u kojoj su se razvijale pogotovo u Zagrebu, nisu bile poželjne jer se izlazilo iz zadanih okvira; pisanje omladinskog tiska o događanjima na Zapadu, pogotovo filmske rubrike (Vie Giovanilli, Horizont, Revija, Filmski vjesnik) što je također prema mišljenju NOH-a bilo pretjerano i idealiziralo je zapadnjački način života nasuprot socijalističkom; zatim čitanje nepodobnih autora koji su na filozofskoj razini razmatrali pojam slobode (Camus, Sartre); širenje stripa kao tipičnog načina kreativnog izričaja zapadnjačkih kultura, „frajerluk“ kod mladih (odijevanje prema modi Zapada, frizure, osnivanje klapa), opsesije mladih Divljim zapadom i sl.

Ovaj je dokument NOH-a, uz ostalo gradivo tadašnjih društveno-političkih organizacija do 1995. činio dio Arhiva Instituta za historiju radničkog pokreta Hrvatske/Instituta za suvremenu povijest. Te je godine u srpnju predano HDA-u gdje se nalazi i danas.

Gradivo redovito koriste istraživači te je i ovo izvješće korišteno pri izradi znanstvenih publikacija.

After his first attempt at sewing and displaying a Romanian flag was thwarted by his wife, on 12 June 1966, Muruziuc planned his next action more carefully, endowing it with a powerful symbolic significance. He made the flag himself, in his own shed, on 27 June 1966. He bought 2m of red cloth in the village shop on 26 June, while the blue material (1m) was acquired at the shop in the neighbouring village of Alexăndreni. Muruziuc used an old bed-sheet for the yellow portion of the flag. According to a later examination carried out by the KGB, the flag was 2m 57cm long and 78cm cm wide. Muruziuc claimed that nobody witnessed his work on the flag. Early the next day, he entered the territory of the factory, climbed the chimney, and fixed the flag on the building’s lightning rod, so that it was visible throughout the village. After Muruziuc’s arrest, the flag was confiscated by the KGB, and served as an essential piece of incriminating evidence during the trial. This was apparently the first case of the public display of a Romanian flag on the territory of the MSSR after 28 June 1940. The flag was destroyed by the KGB staff on 13 January 1967. This photo is the only remaining record of the flag made by Muruziuc.
