If this task were of- fered to me again, I am not certain that I would agree to undertake it. The reason is not the lack of historical insight to be found in the diary of Georgi Dimitrov. On the contrary, this is the single most important new source on the history of the international Communist movement in Stalin’s time. Rather, the collective character of this effort has been some- what off-putting to an historian of my solitary disposition. Dimitrov wrote his diary in nineteen separate notebooks that are now kept in the former Communist Party archive in Sofia, Bulgaria. A type- script of eighteen of these was made in 1960 for the purposes of the Cen- tral Party Archive in Sofia, with a copy for the Marx-Engels-Lenin Insti- tute in Moscow, currently the Russian State Archive of Social and Political History (RGASPI). An integral version of the manuscript was published in Bulgarian in 1997.1 The Yale University Press Annals of Communism se- ries obtained access to these materials in 1993, thanks to Boyko Dimitrov, Dimitrov’s adopted son and literary executor. Since the diary is multilin- gual, the Press entrusted the translation to three

  • Babadzhanian, Hamazasp
    Babadzhanian, Hamazasp Born: February 18th, 1906 Died: November 1st, 1977 (Aged 71) Ethnicity: Armenian Field of Activity: Red Army Brief Biography Hamazasp Khachaturi Babadzhanian was a Russian military general who served during multiple wars for the Soviet Union, rising to prominence during the Great Patriotic War. He was born in 1906 into an impecunious Armenian family in Chardakhlu, Azerbaijan. He attended a secondary school in Tiflis in 1915 but due to familial financial difficulties was forced to return home and toil in the fields on his family’s plot of land, later working as a highway worker during 1923-24. Babadzhanian joined the Red Army in 1925 and later attended a Military School in Yerevan in 1926, graduating as an officer in 1929, as well as joining the Soviet Communist Party in 1928. He received various postings, mopping up armed gangs in the Caucasus region in 1930 and aided in liquidating the Kulak revolt. Babadzhanian moved around frequently, generally within the Transcaucasus and Baku regions, until 1939-1940, when he served in the Finno-Soviet war. He played a pivotal role in numerous battles in World War 2, participating in the battle of Smolensk, as well as contributing a fundamentally in Yelnya, where he overcame a far superior German force. For his efforts in recapturing Stanslav he received the title of Hero of the Soviet Union. He provided support in Poland, as well fighting in Berlin, contributing to the capture of the Reichstag. After the Great Patriotic War Babadzhanian would prove crucial in quelling the Hungarian Revolution in 1956, and some time after in 1975 became Chief Marshal of the Tank and Armoured Troops, a rank only he and one other attained.

  • When Fear Is Substituted for Reason: European and Western Government Policies Regarding National Security 1789-1919
    WHEN FEAR IS SUBSTITUTED FOR REASON: EUROPEAN AND WESTERN GOVERNMENT POLICIES REGARDING NATIONAL SECURITY 1789-1919 Norma Lisa Flores A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY December 2012 Committee: Dr. Beth Griech-Polelle, Advisor Dr. Mark Simon Graduate Faculty Representative Dr. Michael Brooks Dr. Geoff Howes Dr. Michael Jakobson © 2012 Norma Lisa Flores All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Dr. Beth Griech-Polelle, Advisor Although the twentieth century is perceived as the era of international wars and revolutions, the basis of these proceedings are actually rooted in the events of the nineteenth century. When anything that challenged the authority of the state – concepts based on enlightenment, immigration, or socialism – were deemed to be a threat to the status quo and immediately eliminated by way of legal restrictions. Once the façade of the Old World was completely severed following the Great War, nations in Europe and throughout the West started to revive various nineteenth century laws in an attempt to suppress the outbreak of radicalism that preceded the 1919 revolutions. What this dissertation offers is an extended understanding of how nineteenth century government policies toward radicalism fostered an environment of increased national security during Germany’s 1919 Spartacist Uprising and the 1919/1920 Palmer Raids in the United States. Using the French Revolution as a starting point, this study allows the reader the opportunity to put events like the 1848 revolutions, the rise of the First and Second Internationals, political fallouts, nineteenth century imperialism, nativism, Social Darwinism, and movements for self-government into a broader historical context.

Colorado Department of Transportation DRB FINAL RESOLUTION BACKGROUND Colorado Project No. STA 0404-044 15821R, “Removing Asphalt Mat on West Colfax Avenue and Replacing with a new Hot Mix Asphalt Overlay”, was awarded to Brannan Sand and Gravel Company on August 11, 2008, for $1,089,047.93. The contract incorporated all Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT) Standard Specifications and Project Special Conditions, including, Standard Specification 109.06: Standard Specification 109.06 Partial Payments. CDOT will make partial payments to the Contractor once each month as the work progresses, when the Contractor is performing satisfactorily under the Contract. Payments will be based upon progress estimates prepared by the Engineer, of the value of work performed, materials placed in accordance with the Contract, and the value of the materials on hand in accordance with the Contract. Revision of Section 109. In September 2006, CDOT, CCA (Colorado Contractors Associations), and CAPA (Colorado Asphalt Pavement Association) formed a joint Task Force at the request of CAPA to evaluate the need for an asphalt cement cost adjustment specification that would be similar to the Fuel Cost Adjustment that was currently being used by CDOT. The result of the Task Force effort was the revision of Standard Specification 109.06 to include the Asphalt Cement Cost Adjustments Subsection.

  • Did Anthropogeology Anticipate the Idea of the Anthropocene?
    ANR0010.1177/2053019617742169The Anthropocene ReviewHäusler 742169research-article2017 Review The Anthropocene Review 1 –18 Did anthropogeology anticipate © The Author(s) 2017 Reprints and permissions: the idea of the Anthropocene? sagepub.co.uk/journalsPermissions.nav https://doi.org/10.1177/2053019617742169DOI: 10.1177/2053019617742169 journals.sagepub.com/home/anr Hermann Häusler Abstract The term anthropogeology was coined in 1959 by the Austrian geologist Heinrich Häusler. It was taken up by the Swiss geologist Heinrich Jäckli in 1972, and independently introduced again by the German geologist Rudolf Hohl in 1974. Their concept aimed at mitigating humankind’s geotechnical and ecological impact in the dimension of endogenic and exogenic geologic processes. In that context anthropogeology was defined as the scientific discipline of applied geology integrating sectors of geosciences, geography, juridical, political and economic sciences as well as sectors of engineering sciences. In 1979 the German geologist Werner Kasig newly defined anthropogeology as human dependency on geologic conditions, in particular focusing on building stone, aggregates, groundwater and mineral resources. The severe problems of environmental pollution since the 1980s and the political relevance of environmental protection led to the initiation of the discipline ‘environmental geosciences’, which – in contrast to anthropogeology – was and is taught at universities worldwide. Keywords Anthropocene, anthropogeology, engineering geology, environmental geology, mankind as geologic factor, prognosis, shift of paradigm, stakeholder The roots of anthropogeology: Humankind as a geologic factor Since the 1850s a number of scientists have become aware of the important role of humans in the present geologic cycle, and termed humankind as a geological and geomorphological force (Hamilton and Grinevald, 2015; Häusler Jr, 2016; Lewis and Maslin, 2015; Lowenthal, 2016, Steffen et al., 2007; Trachtenberg, 2015; Zalasiewicz et al., 2011).

  • Specialists, Spies, “Special Settlers”, and Prisoners of War: Social Frictions in the Kuzbass (USSR), 1920–1950
    IRSH 60 (2015), Special Issue, pp. 185–205 doi:10.1017/S0020859015000462 © 2015 Internationaal Instituut voor Sociale Geschiedenis Specialists, Spies, “Special Settlers”, and Prisoners of War: Social Frictions in the Kuzbass (USSR), 1920–1950 J ULIA L ANDAU Buchenwald Memorial 99427 Weimar-Buchenwald, Germany E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT: The Kuzbass coalmining region in western Siberia (Kuznetsk Basin) was explored, populated, and exploited under Stalin’s rule. Struggling to offset a high labour turnover, the local state-run coal company enrolled deportees from other regions of Russia and Siberia, who were controlled by the secret police (OGPU). These workers shared a common experience in having been forcibly separated from their place of origin. At the same time, foreigners were recruited from abroad as experts and offered a privileged position. In the years of the Great Terror (1936−1938) both groups were persecuted, as they were regarded by the state as disloyal and suspicious. After the war, foreigners were recruited in large numbers as prisoners of war. Thus, migrants, foreigners, and deportees from other regions and countries constituted a significant part of the workforce in the Kuzbass, while their status constantly shifted due to economic needs and repressive politics. From the beginning of the twentieth century, after the building of the Trans- Siberian Railway, the economic resources of Siberia became the subject of political consideration and planning efforts by the Russian and later the Soviet state. The Kuzbass region in western Siberia amazed Soviet planners with its vast supply of very high-quality coal – the layers of coal measuring from 1.5 to 20 metres.1 The content of ash (about 10 per cent) and sulphur (between 0.4 and 0.7 per cent) was comparatively low.

Las tensio- nes, enfrentamientos y anomalías que marcaron a estos protagonistas durante la Guerra Civil y los primeros años del exilio antifranquista pueden reconstruirse, fundamentalmente, a partir de los archivos soviéticos. Su relación cuestionó parte de los fundamentos estructurales sobre los que se basaba la maquinaria organizativa e ideológica de la IC y llegó a generar una problemática de dimensión estatal e inter- nacional sin precedentes en el resto de Europa. El enfrentamiento tuvo sus momentos cruciales en el propio nacimiento y funcionamiento independiente del PSUC respecto a la IC y el PCE hasta mediados de la Guerra Civil; el complejo modelo de conver- sión en un partido comunista que Moscú le aplicó durante la etapa final de la gue- rra; su sorprendente reconocimiento como sección oficial de la IC; y, finalmente, los constantes enfrentamientos entre partidarios y detractores de su sumisión al PCE durante el exilio.

  • New Species and Records of Balkan Trichoptera III
    097_132_Balkan_Trichoptera_III_Olah.qxd 1/29/2015 12:22 PM Page 97 FOLIA HISTORICO-NATURALIA MUSEI MATRAENSIS 2014 38: 97–131 New species and records of Balkan Trichoptera III. JÁNOS OLÁH & TIBOR KOVÁCS ABSTRACT: We report 113 caddisfly species from Albania, Bosnia & Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, Greece, Macedonia, Montenegro, Serbia, and Slovenia. Ten new species are described: Wormaldia busa Oláh sp. n., W. daga Oláh sp. n., W. graeca Oláh sp. n., W. homora Oláh sp. n., Tinodes karpathos Oláh sp. n., Hydropsyche sarnas Oláh sp. n., Annitella jablanicensis Oláh sp. n., Allogamus zugor Oláh sp. n., Potamophylax alsos Oláh sp. n., and Beraea gurba Oláh sp. n. Two unknown females are described: Potamophylax kesken Oláh, 2012, and P. tagas Oláh et Kovács, 2012. The Potamophylax tagas species cluster is revised by fine structure analysis of the cluster divergence, including cluster history, probable speciation, divergence between sibling pairs, as well as gonopod, paramer, aedeagus, and vaginal sclerite divergences. Introduction Data and information on the Balkan Trichoptera, especially from Albania, Macedonia Monte- negro and Serbia is still very limited in spite of the very high diversity in these countries. High elevation habitats in several mountain ranges are significant endemic hotspots. Our annual field work, although very limited, is producing every year new distributional data and new species (OLÁH 2010, 2011; OLÁH & KOVÁCS 2012a,b, 2013; OLÁH et al. 2012, 2013a,b, 2014). Both spring and autumnal collecting trips were financed by The Sakertour Eastern Europe, the Birdwatching and Hide Photography Company of the Carpathian Basin and Danube Delta. We have applied the collecting, processing, clearing, cleaning and drawing methods described by OLÁH (2011).

Al comenzar en la guerra civil española, y cerrarse el círculo en la transición política española, el trabajo abarca un amplio proceso histórico, de más de 40 años que invita a los investigadores a prestar el interés que merece el periodismo cuando éste se halla cercado por la inanición y falta de libertad.
