  • The Vietnam War an Australian Perspective
    THE VIETNAM WAR AN AUSTRALIAN PERSPECTIVE [Compiled from records and historical articles by R Freshfield] Introduction What is referred to as the Vietnam War began for the US in the early 1950s when it deployed military advisors to support South Vietnam forces. Australian advisors joined the war in 1962. South Korea, New Zealand, The Philippines, Taiwan and Thailand also sent troops. The war ended for Australian forces on 11 January 1973, in a proclamation by Governor General Sir Paul Hasluck. 12 days before the Paris Peace Accord was signed, although it was another 2 years later in May 1975, that North Vietnam troops overran Saigon, (Now Ho Chi Minh City), and declared victory. But this was only the most recent chapter of an era spanning many decades, indeed centuries, of conflict in the region now known as Vietnam. This story begins during the Second World War when the Japanese invaded Vietnam, then a colony of France. 1. French Indochina – Vietnam Prior to WW2, Vietnam was part of the colony of French Indochina that included Laos, Cambodia, and Vietnam. Vietnam was divided into the 3 governances of Tonkin, Annam, and Cochinchina. (See Map1). In 1940, the Japanese military invaded Vietnam and took control from the Vichy-French government stationing some 30,000 troops securing ports and airfields. Vietnam became one of the main staging areas for Japanese military operations in South East Asia for the next five years. During WW2 a movement for a national liberation of Vietnam from both the French and the Japanese developed in amongst Vietnamese exiles in southern China.

  • Humanism and Terror: an Essay on the Communist Problem
    Humanism and Terror An Essay on the Communist Problem by Maurice Merleau-Ponty Translated and with Notes by John O'Neill BEACON PRESS I BOSTON First published in French as Humamsme et Terreur, Essat sur le Problime Communtstt © 1947, Editions Gallimard English translation copyright © 1969 by Beacon Press All rights reserved Beacon Press books are published under the auspices of the Unitarian Universalis!

The Yogi and the Proletarian 149 CONCLUSION 178 Translator's Note Humanism and Terror first appeared in 1947. It is the trans­ lator's belief that Merleau-Ponty's argument, as well as that of Koestler in Darkness at Noon (1946) raises questions that are still relevant to the fateful connection between revolu­ tion and violence. All the same, it may be useful to con­ temporary readers to recall some of the background to the dispute between Roestler and Merleau-Ponty and the way it involved intellectuals on the French left whether Commu­ nist or non-Communist. I shall not attempt to trace in any detail the postwar de­ velopments which are the setting for Humanism and Terror.

  • It's Taken Almost 49 Years to Uncover Vol 1 No

It’s taken almost 49 years to uncover Vol 1 No IX! This all stared with Barry Guzder sending Grahame Dignam the following email – “Hi Digs, Don’t know if this will make the next E&Es but it’s a good reminder of days gone by! Regards Barry G.” Grahame copied the email to Ed who followed up with Barry as to where the hell did he discover this and here’s his response – “Hi Paul, I had it with all my other Vietnam paraphernalia on returning to Oz in ’68. Put it all away and year and half later sailed to U.K. So mum looked after all that military stuff till I returned in ’75. Just took it all in a box to new house in ’78. Went thru box in 2013, found it and put it into ‘Tracks of the Dragon”. Showed book to friends at bushfire brigade and out it fell! Regards, Barry.” Ed - Bloody amazing “out it fell”, but we are ever so thankful as it now means that Vol 1 No 11 is the only missing issue. Is there anyone else who can perform some magic and produce it? Here’s Barry’s now archived issue - Page 1 of 16 Page 2 of 16 OK, let’s go looking for Vol 1 No IX…someone must have one ferreted away somewhere?? Page 3 of 16 .
