INDIANA LAW JOURNAL pointed out above. When an attorney finds a physician skilled in these techniques of testifying, he tends to try to use him again and again. The problem for the legal system in this trend, however, lies in the fact that this highly-prized type of medical witness may not be the most expert on the medical issues involved. In particular, he may not be among the more advanced and progressive clinicians who have the most to offer. Another very important factor in the tendency toward professional witnesses is the reluctance of many clinical physicians to appear in court. If it is agreed that we need to expand the lists of medical witnesses avail- able for use in legal matters, then films such as this one and others like it will serve an excellent purpose if they can help to persuade qualified physicians to give some of their time to the courts.

  • West European Communist Parties: Kautskyism And/Or Derevolutionization?
    INFORMATION TO USERS This reproduction was made from a copy of a document sent to us for microfilming. While the most advanced technology has been used to photograph and reproduce this document, the quality of the reproduction is heavily dependent upon the quality of the material submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help clarify markings or notations which may appear on this reproduction. 1.The sign or “target” for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is “Missing Page(s)”. If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting througli an image and duplicating adjacent pages to assure complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a round black mark, it is an indication of either blurred copy because of movement during exposure, duplicate copy, or copyrighted materials that should not have been filmed. For blurred pages, a good image of the page can be found in the adjacent frame. If copyrighted materials were deleted, a target note will appear listing the pages in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., is part of the material being photographed, a definite method of “sectioning” the material has been followed. It is customary to begin filming at the upper left hand comer of a large sheet and to continue from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. If necessary, sectioning is continued again-beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete.

Everybody‟s lives went through a great change, but mine especially. …I wasn‟t disgusted with myself that I had called the arrival of the Red Army in 1945 a liberation, but [after 1956] I didn't use it anymore.” The above respondent came from a middle-class Jewish Budapest family. Members of his family had died in the Holocaust after the German occupation of the country in March 1944. He experienced the arrival of the Red Army as a „liberation‟ from the threat of deportation, and joined the Communist movement immediately after the war. Until 1956 he had seen the world in antifascist terms; Fascism was considered to be the greatest evil, and Communists the most effective protectors of Hungary from its return. In the uprising of 1956, he had supported the reformed Communist forces fighting for a democratic socialism; following its suppression by Soviet tanks, he vowed to reject his earlier antifascist history: he revised his notion that the Soviets had liberated him in 1945 and now cast them as foreign occupiers.

  • Dreams of Paradise: the Making of a Soviet Outpost in Vietnam*
    Ab Imperio, 2/2008 Tuong VU DREAMS OF PARADISE: THE MAKING OF A SOVIET OUTPOST IN VIETNAM* Introduction Until its collapse the Soviet Union was Vietnam’s most important ally. USSR was the deepest source of inspiration to Vietnamese communists and the most powerful protector of the Vietnamese revolution from various “im- perialist” threats. The Soviet Union rivaled, if not surpassed, France, China and the United States in shaping the history of postcolonial Vietnam. Yet one does not appreciate this fact by reading the literature on the Cold War. Although useful, this literature has failed to grasp the full signifi cance of the Soviet Union in Vietnamese postwar history. First, the Soviet-Vietnamese relationship has been viewed primarily from the perspective of the super- powers – either the United States or the Soviet Union. Most analysts are based in the United States and primarily interested in the failed adventure * I am indebted to the Institute of Vietnamese Studies and Development Sciences at the National University of Hanoi for sponsoring my research in Vietnam, and to the Asia Research Institute, National University of Singapore, for providing generous fi nancial and institutional support. In Singapore, David Koh, Anthony Reid, Geoff Wade and Wasana Wongsurawat offered great intellectual stimuli. Comments from an anonymous reviewer are helpful to broaden the analysis. Finally, Sergey Glebov’s persistent encouragement is especially appreciated. 255 T.

As a result, the United States appears to be the single most important country in postcolonial Vietnamese history.

  • Compatibilities and Incompatibilities in the Political Doctrines of Communism and Nationalism
    Acta Universitatis Sapientiae European and Regional Studies, vol. 1, no. 1 (2010) 3358 Compatibilities and Incompatibilities in the Political Doctrines of Communism and Nationalism TORÓ Tibor Department of European Studies, Sapientia University Cluj-Napoca email: [email protected] Abstract. Some would say communism and nationalism are the most inuential political doctrines and ideologies of the 20th century, chang- ing not only history itself, but the institutional, political, cultural and social framework of the Central and Eastern European states. Many of the scholars, taking in consideration only the early incompatibility of the two, argue that their simultaneous appearance, such as in the case of Romania of the 1970s and 1980s is an interesting anomaly, a particular deviation from the pattern, which needs to be studied separately from the whole. This paper argues that the relationship between communism and nationalism evolved gradually from a palpable incompatibility in the 19th century to a perceptible compatibility at the end of the 20th. More- over, the concurrent appearance of the two doctrines does not represent a particular case, but it is rather the result of an organic ideological development which was triggered by the problems met by Marxism in deconstructing nationalism. Keywords: communism, nationalism, national question, political the- ory, Soviet Union, Eastern Europe, Romania Introduction Some would say communism and nationalism are the most inuential politi- cal doctrines and ideologies of the 20th century, changing not only history itself, but the institutional, political, cultural and social framework of the Central 34 Toró Tibor and Eastern European states. Beyond this, Marxism the theoretical basis of the socialist doctrine has become one of the leading analytical schools and methodologies in current social sciences and philosophy.

  • Socialist Nation’ Emanuel Copilaș
    Third World Themes in the International Politics of the Ceaușescu Regime or the International Affirmation of the ‘Socialist Nation’ Emanuel Copilaș Abstract: The present article aims to offer a synoptic picture of communist Romania’s relations with Third World countries during the Ceaușescu regime. Within these relations, economic and geopolitical motivations coexisted along with ideological ones, thus making the topic one of the most interesting and relevant key for understanding RSR’s complex and cunning international strategy. However, I intend to prove that mere pragmatism is not enough to comprehend the drive behind Ceaușescu’s diplomatic efforts in post-colonial Africa; ideological factors need also to be taken into account. Keywords: blackness, consciencism, ‘group of 77’, Maoism, national- communism, neo-colonialism, pragmatism. Introduction Considering itself, since 1972, a ‘socialist developing country,’ the Romanian Socialist Republic (RSR) followed with this ingenious strategy a number of specific reasons, one of them consisting in diversifying its global commercial options, another to become a well-known and respected voice on the international stage, mostly in the emerging field of nonalignment and, last but not least, to obtain a symbolic and ideological prestige most useful for future international endeavors. As a ‘socialist developing country,’ RSR was paying a lot of attention to the ‘new international order’, a revolutionary concept consisting in the attenuation of global social, economic and geopolitical inequalities, in boosting the importance of small and middle states on the international scene and in permanently paving the way for the Leninist ‘new’ to the disadvantage of the bourgeois ‘old’. My working hypothesis resides in understanding RSR’s interest in post- colonial Africa as a means to gradually be perceived, along with Yugoslavia, as a middle sized China within the matrix of tiermondism.

  • Between National and Indigenous Communism
    LITHUANIAN HISTORICAL STUDIES 23 2019 ISSN 1392-2343 PP. 85–116 https://doi.org/10.30965/25386565-02301004 BETWEEN NATIONAL AND INDIGENOUS COMMUNISM. SOME BROAD BRUSHTROKES IN THE POLITICAL BIOGRAPHY OF JUSTAS PALECKIS: 1944–19531 Vladas Sirutavičius (Lithuanian Institute of History) ABSTRACT The article discusses the activities during the period of late Stalinism of Justas Paleckis, the chairman of the Presidium of the Supreme Council of Soviet Lithuania. The paper puts forward the premise that from 1944 to 1953, Paleckis bal- anced between indigenous (local) communism and attitudes characteristic of some Central European national communists. To be more precise, he tried to emphasise the specifics of the historical development of Lithuania, and its differences from other Soviet republics, in which the formation of the Soviet regime started earlier. According to him, its tradition of statehood made Lithuania a unique republic, and this circumstance should be taken into account when making Lithuania Soviet. Paleckis was convinced that in order to make Soviet rule more attractive to the Lith- uanians, it was necessary to cooperate with the nation’s cultural elite, that is, with the interwar Lithuanian intelligentsia. In his writings and speeches, he tried to merge organically the liberation of the Lithuanian nation from the ‘yoke’ of the exploiters, with the no less important liberation from the ‘national yoke’ or national revival of the Lithuanians. Social and national ‘liberation’, according to him, was crowned with the establishment of the socialist order in Lithuania. This ‘organic’ understanding of history was characteristic of other national communists in Central Europe. Finally, Paleckis tried to incorporate national elements into the system of symbols in Soviet Lithuania.

  • Fascist and Communist Alternatives in Catalan Separatism, 1919-1939
    THE SHADOW OF A DOUBT: FASCIST AND COMMUNIST ALTERNATIVES IN CATALAN SEPARATISM, 1919-1939 Enrique Ucelay-Da Cal Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona WP núm. 198 Institut de Ciències Polítiques i Socials Barcelona, 2002 The Institut de Ciències Polítiques i Socials (ICPS) was created by the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona and the Diputació de Barcelona in 1988. The ICPS is attached to the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona. These “Working Papers” -thought of as subject for discussion- are the result of research work in progress. Appearance in this series does not preclude further publication.

Specifically in 1933, a huge debate exploded within Catalan politics with regards to the "fascist tendencies" of a part of the separatist movement and the label stuck, fanned especially by anarchosyndicalist propaganda1. This opinion came to be shared, just to cite a few English-oriented sources, resonant with their influence on later historians, by E. Allison Peers (who saw the Catalan imitation of the military-type organization of fascism), Gerald Brenan (who bluntly perceived "Catalan Fascism"), and Salvador de Madariaga (who spoke of "a colored-shirt corps which it was difficult to distinguish from a Fascist organization")2. Curiously enough, Franco régime partisans could share similar indignation at such a development: the "falangista" Maximiano García Venero referred to a "xenophobe fascism, naturally paramilitary and bourgeois"3.

About the Book and Author NATIONAL COMMUNISM Peter Zwick According to the generally accepted view that nationalism is alien to communism and that internationalism disallows divisions based on nations, the existence of national communism is often interpreted as a sign of the breakup of the world communist movement. This book reexamines the evidence on the role of nations and national variations, beginning with Marx and moving through Leninism and Stalinism to Titoism, Maoism, Castroism, and current national lib- eration movements (e.g., in Nicaragua).
