Edvard Kocbek was a renowned Slovenian writer who started writing already in his youth. In 1941, he became a member of the Liberation Front and the struggle against the occupiers. At the end of the war and shortly after it, he held important and esteemed positions in the power structure, but he lacked any real clout. After the political action taken against him in 1952, he was prevented from publishing his works for nearly a decade. Although Yugoslavia did not employ censorship in the form of formal bans at the time, the authorities would prohibit the publication of his poems, articles, or books behind the scenes. Through the archival documents of the most prominent political bodies in Slovenia, the present contribution outlines the manners in which this behind-the-scenes censorship was employed: at closed meetings, the authorities would decide what could not be printed, and the publishers and editorships had to comply with these decisions. These bans were not caused merely by the contents of Kocbek’s works, based on the Christian and existential persuasion, but rather by the fear that because of his reputation, Kocbek could become the focus for the association of cultural workers of different persuasions and the formation of a group that could eventually become a significant political factor.
