Abstract:
On pp. 249-266, presents a sample of documents (mainly official correspondence) dated March-July 1915 pertaining to the expulsion of Jews from areas adjacent to the northwestern front carried out by the Russian Army. The documents elucidate the period when the army switched from the wholesale expulsion of Jews from a wide frontline area to the taking of Jewish hostages, with expulsion of Jews from some narrow strips of land near the front. The documents show that the policy of expulsion was governmentally-approved rather than being arbitrary measures of local military authorities.
