  • Ronald Reagan and the Mysterious Russian Soul
    Ronald Reagan and the mysterious Russian soul Guy Kortsarz August 20, 2018 1 Ronald Reagan President Ronald Reagan held conservative beliefs. He wanted a small government as the government is the problem. The key for growth is release the power of the private market. And the economy was booming when he was a president. Only Obama has a higher growth in a quarter than Reagan (yes the best quarter growth of Obama is better than that of Reagan, and the best of Reagan so far is better than the best of Trump). Reagan hated unions a nd busted them. He called people on food stamps welfare queens. He turned the word Liberal into a four letters word. The foreign policy of Reagan was neo-conservative. He conducted many wars in various places in the world. He had a very big scandal, selling missiles to Iran. Reagan cut taxes for the rich forming the so called supply-side economic. If rich people will have money, this will trickle down to the middle class. The claim was that taxes will pay for themselves as a result of growth in the economy. But Reagan also raised taxes 11 times, he compromises and worked with the Democrats a lot. Reagan tripled the debt, a thing he saw as a personal failure. In social areas he was a moderate. He did not care and did not think much about gays, abortions, guns an the likes. Reagan almost never went to church. Reagan came from Hollywood. He believed in the good endings like almost all films had at the time.

  • A Cinematic Battle: Three Yugoslav War Films from the 1960S
    A Cinematic Battle: Three Yugoslav War Films from the 1960s By Dragan Batanĉev Submitted to Central European University History Department In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Thesis Supervisor: Professor Balázs Trencsényi Second Reader: Professor Marsha Siefert CEU eTD Collection Budapest, Hungary 2012 Statement of Copyright Copyright in the text of this thesis rests with the Author. Copies by any process, either in full or part, may be made only in accordance with the instructions given by the Author and lodged in the Central European Library. Details may be obtained from the librarian. This page must form a part of any such copies made. Further copies made in accordance with such instructions may not be made without the written permission of the Author. CEU eTD Collection i Abstract The content of my thesis will present the analysis of three Yugoslav war films from the 1960s that they offer different views on World War II as a moment of creation of the state that aimed towards supranationalism and classlessness. I will analyse the films in terms of their production, iconography and reception as to show that although the Yugoslav government, led by a great cinephile Josip Broz Tito, demonstrated interest in the war film genre, there were opposing filmmakers‟ views on what WWII should represent in the Yugoslav history and collective mythology. By using the concept of historiophoty I will demonstrate that the war films represented the failure of Yugoslav government in integrating different nations into a supranational Yugoslav society in which conflicts between different social agents (the state, workers and peasants) will finally be resolved.

  • The Black Wave and Marxist Revisionism
    1 The Black Wave and Marxist Revisionism THE VIOLENT BREAKUP of the multiethnic, multicultural Yugo­ slav state and the wars fought on its territory are clear symptoms of ag­ gressiveethnonationalism becoming the dominant ideological model in che region. Contrary to the fashionableviews about the "ancient" Balkan hatreds, however, this disintegrative model was in no way predestined to overwhelm the Yugoslav society but rather developed as a direct conse­ quence of the complex political struggles in it. Although the flames of nationalism fullyflooded the region in the 1990s, during the mid and late 1980s they were carefullyand patiently nurtured by the "ethnically con­ cerned" intellectual and cultural elites (the two key events in this respect being the appearance in 1986 of the "Memorandum," charted by the Ser­ bian Academy of Sciences and Arts, and in 1987 of the "Contributions to the Slovenian National Programme," written by sixteen individually signed authors and published in the magazine Nova Revija; both signaled the legitimation of open, public promotion of ethnocentric national plat­ forms and thus the beginning of organized political-ideological contes­ tation of the existing Yugoslav federal order).1 The emergence of these nationalist leaderships-whose popularity grew ever more rapidly as the decade of the 1980s approached its end-were, in turn, predicated on the gradual dissolution of the socialist ideology and its sociopolitical struc­ ture in the country, the visibility of which process became ever more 12 Chapter 1 prominent after the death of Josip Broz Tito in 1980. In other words, Yugoslavia did not die because of its multiethnic, multicultural compo­ sition.
