The collection illustrates Zvonimir Kulundžić's intellectual work as a journalist, historian and literary critic who chose to pursue his activity independently outside of the institutions controlled by the socialist government. The Collection includes books, original manuscripts, the author's published articles, his correspondence and polemics, which reflect a critical standpoint toward Croatia’s institutional historiography and literature in the period from the 1950s to the late 1980s.

The Áron Márton Memorial Collection in Alba Iulia contains the materials that represent the most complete coverage of the bishop’s life and activity, which offers countless proofs of individual courage and spirit of sacrifice, in the light of his official and private correspondence carried on with the Holy See, the Romanian public authorities, and private persons, and insight not only into his struggle for the survival of the Church and the Catholic faith, but also into the details of the fight for minority and human rights in the twentieth century.

The Éva Cseke-Gyimesi Ad-hoc Collection kept by CNSAS contains, besides Securitate files, pieces of evidence regarding the critical approach to the regime inherent in the targeted person’s professional activity, and her struggle against the violation of human rights and for the institutionalisation of minority rights. The collection represents the model story of the Transylvanian Hungarian intellectual observed in the 1970s and 1980s, which exhausts both the meaning of secret police harassment and that of coping with this type of harassment.
