    Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 200 / Wednesday, October 16, 2013 / Presidential Documents 62313 Presidential Documents Proclamation 9038 of October 10, 2013 General Pulaski Memorial Day, 2013 By the President of the United States of America A Proclamation Today, we honor the memory of Brigadier General Casimir Pulaski, the Polish-born hero of the American Revolutionary War. General Pulaski’s devo- tion to liberty knew no boundaries, and his bravery on the battlefield helped secure our independence. He sacrificed his life in defense of our freedom, and each year on October 11—the anniversary of his death—we honor his sacrifice and service and reflect on the contributions made by so many Polish-Americans throughout our Nation’s history. A skilled cavalryman even as a youth, Casimir Pulaski spent years defending his native Poland from foreign domination. Unable to win Polish sovereignty, Pulaski found a kindred cause in the fledgling American Nation. Encouraged by Benjamin Franklin, he set sail across the Atlantic in 1777 to join the Revolutionary forces. ‘‘I could not submit to stoop before the sovereigns of Europe,’’ he later wrote to Congress, ‘‘So I came to hazard all for the freedom of America.’’ Casimir Pulaski quickly distinguished himself at the Battle of Brandywine, where his courageous charge covered General George Washington’s retreat, saving Washington’s life. The Continental Congress promoted him to Briga- dier General, and for his command on horseback, he became known as the ‘‘Father of the American Cavalry.’’ Pulaski went on to form an inde- pendent cavalry legion, comprised of men from across Europe and America.

Boken finns inte översatt i sin helhet till något annat språk, men på marxistarkivet finns fler kapitel: Komintern fem år senare (om läget i Komintern kring 1924), Kommunistiska Internationalen 1933-1938 (om folkfronts- politiken), Motorsågsmassakern (utrensningarna under åren 1936-39), Kommunistiska Internationalen och Andra världskriget och Dödsbudet. Upplösningen av Komintern De här återgivna kapitlen handlar till stor del om Kominterns s k ”tredje period” (1928-1934), där katastrofen i Tyskland (med nazisternas maktövertagande 1933) markerar en slags slut- punkt. Men Broué beskriver även vänster- och högeroppositionen och hur Stalin & Co tog ett allt fastare grepp om Komintern genom att eliminera oppositionella (i Sovjet, Kina, Tyskland, Polen, Tjeckoslovakien …).

  • Where the Law Ends
    ideaForum Where the law ends The collapse of the rule of law in Poland – and what to do “Everyone is entitled to a fair and public hearing within a reasonable time by an independent and impartial tribunal previously established by law.” (Article 47, EU Charter on Fundamental Rights) Berlin – Warsaw 29 May 2018 ii Executive Summary No member state of the EU has ever gone as far in subjugating its courts to executive control as the current Polish government has done. The Polish case is a test whether it is possible to create a Soviet-style justice system, where the control of courts, prosecutors and judges lies with the executive and a single party, in an EU member state. In December 2017 the Commission proposed to the EU Council to determine that there was “a clear risk of a serious breach by the Republic of Poland of the rule of law.” It warned that in Poland the constitutionality of laws “can no longer be verified and guaranteed by an independent constitutional tribunal.” It expressed “grave concerns” over the lack of independent courts. In March 2018 an Irish High Court judge noted a “deliberate, calculated and provocative legislative dismantling by Poland of the independence of the judiciary, a key component of the rule of law.” She argued, in an extradition case involving a Polish suspect, that “the rule of law in Poland has been systematically damaged by the cumulative impact of all the legislative changes that have taken place over the last two years.” Things are about to get even worse.
