They belong to the pe-' riod Jurre-Decernber 1960, a DerA complicated period ruhen deep ideological and political disagreements had arisen in the relations betru,een a nurnber of parties. In this period the PLA had to take decisions of special responsibility and openly rise before the entire international cornrnunist mooernent, to defend Marxism- Leninisrn and proletorian internationalisru from the neru and dangerous reoision- ist trend, which had been crystalized in its ranks by Khrushcheoite reoisionisrn. ln this oolwme a clear picture is gioen oy the consistent struggle carried out by the Partg of Labour of Albania at the Bucharest Meeting and the Moscow Meeting. At Bucharest the PLA dtd not accept that tke alleged vnistalees of the Comrnunist Party of Ckina showld be iwdged and the latter condernned on the ba- sis of a docurnent full of slanderous accusations fabricated by the Sooiet leader- ship, ruithout gioing the Cornvnwnist Party of China titne and the possibilitq to read the rnaterial and present its own oieru. At tke Moscow Meeting the PLA had ns say with reoolutionarA courdge and, before international cornrnunisrn, openly criticised the wrong line of the Sooiet leadership concerning a series of maior questions of principle. The Parta of Labowr of Albania neoer made con- cessions ooer principles and refused to follow thte reoisionist course of the Khrushcheo group. The editors ol the reoiew 'Albania Today" are publishing some rnaterials frorn tkis oolume in this issue, hoping that in this way theg will fulfill the de- sire oy the resders. AI.
