Comrades, for a research project I am looking for the founding document of the #Nabat Confederation of #Anarchist Organisations in #Ukraine. The organisation was founded in 1918 in the wake of the #RussianRevolution and the document is supposedly drafted by Volin.

It would be great if anyone would be able to help out, as I am not able to find anything on it. There is extensive history written about Nabat, but little of its own words are found.

@LibSpring Did you have any luck with your search?

Just skimmed through my (re-)toots and this was literally the first...

@tertius_eqUi hey, thanks for your reply. Actually I haven't yet! If you can help or have any lead I'd be very happy

@LibSpring Hm, just took a look around and came across this paper:
http://dspace.pdpu.edu.ua/jspui/handle/123456789/4238

On page 17 of the PDF you'll find this reference: "20 Первая конференция Конфедерации анархистских организаций Украины «Набат». —
Б/м. — 1918. — С. 5−10. (Анархисты. Документы и материалы. 1883–1935 гг. В 2 т. —
Т. 2. — С. 332–351)."

Searched for the title in parentheses, I believe you can find copy on Anna's Archive, but there is also one you can view directly here:
https://docs.historyrussia.org/ru/nodes/12291-anarhisty-dokumenty-i-materialy-1883-locale-nil-1935-gg-v-2-tt-t-2-1917-locale-nil-1935-gg

I'm not exactly sure, but maybe at least part of what you're looking for is on p. 332 of the book and onward (p. 336 of the PDF). But that's in Russian or Ukrainian...

Ushynsky University Repository: Виникнення та перші кроки конфедерації анархістських організацій України «Набат» (листопад 1918 — березень 1919)

@LibSpring Even better. Both, volume two and one, are accessible here as a web page (linking directly to the section of interest):

Should make translating it a bit easier :D

Анархисты. Документы и материалы. Том 2 (1917-1935) - Karaultheca

Ok, my bad. Realized these are the resolutions of the first (regular) Congress, but not the founding documents of the 1918 conference, nor what Volin was apparently tasked to come up with . Somehow missed that ^^

I mean, there is a bit more. Like this manifest:
http://karaultheca.ru/sources/krivenky02.htm#413

Though by now, I'm not sure this declaration/document you are looking for was ever finalized/agreed on/published. Volin himself, Rocker and Daniel Guerin state that he was tasked, but their exact words give me the feeling this task was never completed. I'll link the sources later...

Nevertheless, after searching a bit more, I came across this:
https://annas-archive.gd/md5/aab03540c65e18fa209c8c917066dd4a
(or https://annas-archive.gd/md5/c4f363977b87c2ee1cd9035c22ec68ec)

and maybe a couple editions of Nabat:
https://annas-archive.gd/search?q=Nabat+1919
and https://archive.org/details/nabat_klich_proletarskikh_pisateley

I think I stumbled over other interesting articles that might contain further information, but I lost them in the growing pile of tabs. I guess I'll take a brake :D
Dunno if this was of any help so far...
