Description
Besedilo raziskuje globalne izzive na področju oskrbe, s katerimi se je Uprava Združenih narodov za pomoč in obnovo (UNRRA) soočala med drugo svetovno vojno in po njej, s posebnim poudarkom na Jugoslaviji in Balkanu. Obravnava dve glavni fazi oskrbnih operacij Unrre, pri čemer poudarja težave pri nabavi, politiko »praznih polic« ZDA in prizadevanja za ponovno zagotavljanje zalog. Besedilo osvetljuje ključno vlogo Unrre pri preprečevanju lakote, zagotavljanju pomoči in spodbujanju obnove kmetijstva v regijah, prizadetih zaradi vojne, ter trajen vpliv Unrrinih operacij na področju proizvodnje hrane.

      • The following article explores the global supply challenges faced by the United Nations Relief and Rehabilitation Administration (UNRRA) during and after World War II, with a particular focus on Yugoslavia and the Balkans. It discusses the two main stages of the UNRRA supply operations, highlighting the procurement difficulties, the US “empty shelf” policy, and the efforts to ensure resupply. The contribution highlights UNRRA’s crucial role in preventing famine, providing aid, promoting agricultural restoration in the war-affected regions, and the long-term impact of UNRRA’s food production operations.
