Resumo: This research aims to investigate the processes of expulsion and refuge of groups from Eastern Europe to Paraná and the relationship of this displacement to the adopted polices by the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR) on Stalinist period. Testimonies and memories of historical individuals who have experienced this experience allow reflections about the meanings as well as reinterpretations of these trajectories and its silences. The analysis of the silencing processes and the construction of Stalinism refugee‟s taxonomy show that the categorization carried out on Stalinist period hid complex issues involving both participation and consent of other governments, including the Western powers, and its use served to label opponents as well as to conceal persecution. The entry of historical individuals and some foreign groups in Brazil is closely linked to these policies, especially for three specific groups who have moved from Eastern Europe to Paraná- to Campos Gerais region, as well as to its Center-South portion, namely: the German-speaking colony of Witmarsum/Palmeira; the Ukrainian “immigrants/refugees” who moved to Prudentópolis; and finally, the colony of Entre Rios/Guarapuava who also speaks German. The displacement of these groups to Brazil occurred at different times, comprising the interwar period, specially, the post II World War period. It may be emphasized that both arrival and expulsion factors have presented different motivations, examined throughout this present work. However, regardless of its singularities, there is at least one similarity that defines them as refugees: they all have run away from Stalinism. Thus, the present research focuses on the senses and meanings of expressions such as displaced individuals, refugees, stateless people, collaborationist and “enemies of the people”. Through the memory and remembrance of those who have migrated, it seeks to analyze the experiences and consequences of this refuge, as well as the systematic use of expressions to label and justify the processes of expulsion and the silence/forgetfulness raised around the theme by the various agents involved
