The Central Election Commission (CEC) ruled on August 10 that the Yulia Tymoshenko Bloc could not participate in the September 30 pre- term elections because it submitted documents that didn’t contain the complete addresses of the 450 deputies on its electoral list. It reversed its decision on August 15, one day after an administrative court decided in the YTB’s favor. Ms. Tymoshenko alleged this was the lat- est attack from her enemies in the coalition government. “That our political force wasn’t registered simply speaks to the politi- cal persecution executed against our Zenon Zawada political team,” Ms. Tymoshenko told Yulia Tymoshenko Bloc supporters rally in front of the Central Election Commission on August 12.

  • Cold War: a Report on the Xviith IAMHIST Conference, 25-31 July 1997, Salisbury MD
    After the Fall: Revisioning the Cold War: A Report on the XVIIth IAMHIST Conference, 25-31 July 1997, Salisbury MD By John C. Tibbetts “The past can be seized only as an image,” wrote Walter Benjamin. But if that image is ignored by the present, it “threatens to disappear irretrievably.” [1] One such image, evocative of the past and provocative for our present, appears in a documentary film by the United States Information Agency, The Wall (1963). Midway through its account of everyday life in a divided Berlin, a man is seen standing on an elevation above the Wall, sending out hand signals to children on the other side in the Eastern Sector. With voice communication forbidden by the Soviets, he has only the choreography of his hands and fingers with which to print messages onto the air. Now, almost forty years later, the scene resonates with an almost unbearable poignancy. From the depths of the Cold War, the man seems to be gesturing to us. But his message is unclear and its context obscure. [2] The intervening gulf of years has become a barrier just as impassable as the Wall once was. Or has it? The Wall was just one of dozens of screenings and presentations at the recent “Knaves, Fools, and Heroes: Film and Television Representations of the Cold War”—convened as a joint endeavor of IAMHist and the Literature/Film Association, 25-31 July 1997, at Salisbury State University, in Salisbury, Maryland— that suggested that the Cold War is as relevant to our present as it is to our past.
