After the establishment of the [[Communist regime]] in Yugoslavia in 1945, most former TIGR members were removed from public life. The Yugoslav secret police continued to closely monitor some of TIGR's members up to the 1970s. Their activity was removed from the official historical accounts.

In the late 1970s, the first historical accounts on the activity of the TIGR started to appear. Only in the 1980s, however, did their resistance activity started to be appreciated again, with several historical books written on the matter. The historian [[Milica Kacin Wohinz]] was one of the first to produce a thorough study of the movement in a monograph entitled "The First Anti-Fascism in Europe", and published in 1990.

Throughout the 1990s, the history of TIGR received increased publicity and started to be mentioned in public speeches. In 1994, the ''Association for the Nourishment of Patriotic Traditions of the Slovenian Littoral Organization TIGR'' (colloquially known as the "Association TIGR" or "Patriotic Association TIGR") was formed in [[Postojna]], and eventually became the main promoter of the positive evaluation of the TIGR legacy.

In 1997 on the 50th anniversary of annexation of the [[Slovenian Littoral]] to the [[Socialist Republic of Slovenia]], the then [[president of Slovenia]] [[Milan Kučan]] symbolically insignated the organization TIGR with the Golden Honour Insignia of Freedom of the Republic of Slovenia (''Zlati častni znak svobode Republike Slovenije''), the highest [[state decoration]] in Slovenia.

Since the 1990s, many monuments and memorial plaques have been erected to commemorate TIGR activists and their activities.
