For the past three decades, Leitenberg has paraded the thesis that the allegations of BW use leveled against the US by North Korea and China during the Korean War has all been a nefarious hoax – a grand piece of political theater – deviously orchestrated by Mao Zedong, Zhou Enlai, and the swarthy Joseph Stalin. Leitenberg’s thesis epitomizes the deeply embedded racism of America’s Cold War politics. He has enjoyed bounteous support from right-wing academia and quasi-government think tanks. The BW hoax thesis has impacted scholarship and US foreign policy, and it is a major stumbling block to improving US relations with North Korea. In this article I will argue that Leitenberg’s thesis is a house of cards built on forged docu- ments, false claims and fake facts.

  • From Proletarian Internationalism to Populist
    from proletarian internationalism to populist russocentrism: thinking about ideology in the 1930s as more than just a ‘Great Retreat’ David Brandenberger (Harvard/Yale) • [email protected] The most characteristic aspect of the newly-forming ideology... is the downgrading of socialist elements within it. This doesn’t mean that socialist phraseology has disappeared or is disappearing. Not at all. The majority of all slogans still contain this socialist element, but it no longer carries its previous ideological weight, the socialist element having ceased to play a dynamic role in the new slogans.... Props from the historic past – the people, ethnicity, the motherland, the nation and patriotism – play a large role in the new ideology. –Vera Aleksandrova, 19371 The shift away from revolutionary proletarian internationalism toward russocentrism in interwar Soviet ideology has long been a source of scholarly controversy. Starting with Nicholas Timasheff in 1946, some have linked this phenomenon to nationalist sympathies within the party hierarchy,2 while others have attributed it to eroding prospects for world This article builds upon pieces published in Left History and presented at the Midwest Russian History Workshop during the past year. My eagerness to further test, refine and nuance this reading of Soviet ideological trends during the 1930s stems from the fact that two book projects underway at the present time pivot on the thesis advanced in the pages that follow. I’m very grateful to the participants of the “Imagining Russia” conference for their indulgence. 1 The last line in Russian reads: “Bol’shuiu rol’ v novoi ideologii igraiut rekvizity istoricheskogo proshlogo: narod, narodnost’, rodina, natsiia, patriotizm.” V.

  • Xikang: Han Chinese in Sichuan's Western Frontier
    XIKANG: HAN CHINESE IN SICHUAN’S WESTERN FRONTIER, 1905-1949. by Joe Lawson A thesis submitted to the Victoria University of Wellington in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Chinese Victoria University of Wellington 2011 Abstract This thesis is about Han Chinese engagement with the ethnically diverse highlands west and south-west of the Sichuan basin in the first half of the twentieth century. This territory, which includes much of the Tibetan Kham region as well as the mostly Yi- and Han-settled Liangshan, constituted Xikang province between 1939 and 1955. The thesis begins with an analysis of the settlement policy of the late Qing governor Zhao Erfeng, as well as the key sources of influence on it. Han authority suffered setbacks in the late 1910s, but recovered from the mid-1920s under the leadership of General Liu Wenhui, and the thesis highlights areas of similarity and difference between the Zhao and Liu periods. Although contemporaries and later historians have often dismissed the attempts to build Han Chinese- dominated local governments in the highlands as failures, this endeavour was relatively successful in a limited number of places. Such success, however, did not entail the incorporation of territory into an undifferentiated Chinese whole. Throughout the highlands, pre-twentieth century local institutions, such as the wula corvée labour tax in Kham, continued to exercise a powerful influence on the development and nature of local and regional government. The thesis also considers the long-term life (and death) of ideas regarding social transformation as developed by leaders and historians of the highlands.

  • East Asians in Soviet Intelligence and the Chinese-Lenin School of the Russian Far East
    East Asians in Soviet Intelligence and the Chinese-Lenin School of the Russian Far East Jon K. Chang Abstract1 This study focuses on the Chinese-Lenin School (also the acronym CLS) and how the Soviet state used the CLS and other tertiary institutions in the Russian Far East to recruit East Asians into Soviet intelligence during the 1920s to the end of 1945. Typically, the Chinese and Korean intelligence agents of the USSR are presented with very few details with very little information on their lives, motivations and beliefs. This article will attempt to bridge some of this “blank spot” and will cover the biographies of several East Asians in the Soviet intelligence services, their raison d’être, their world view(s) and motivations. The basis for this new study is fieldwork, interviews and photographs collected and conducted in Central Asia with the surviving relatives of six East Asian former Soviet intelligence officers. The book, Chinese Diaspora in Vladivostok, Second Edition [Kitaiskaia diaspora vo Vladivostoke, 2-е izdanie] which was written in Russian by two local historians from the Russian Far East also plays a major role in this study’s depth, revelations and conclusions.2 Methodology: (Long-Term) Oral History and Fieldwork My emphasis on “oral history” in situ is based on the belief that the state archives typically chronicle and tell a history in which the state, its officials and its institutions are the primary actors and “causal agents” who create a powerful, actualized people from the common clay of workers, peasants and sometimes, draw from society’s more marginalized elements such as vagabonds and criminals.

  • Goldman Nationallly Informed Full Draft 2
    Nationally Informed: The Politics of National Minority Music during Late Stalinism Leah Goldman, Reed College Introduction After consolidating its control over the former Russian Empire, the new Soviet state endeavored to distinguish itself from its imperial predecessor by demonstrating its support for the panoply of national minorities now under its jurisdiction. Imperial Russia had sought to Russify the peoples of its western borderlands and exert colonial dominance over those in the Caucasus and Central Asia. By contrast, Soviet officials made a concert- ed effort to celebrate the Union’s internal diversity and enable all national cultures to flourish. This strategy took a variety of forms, from creation of nationality-based autono- mous regions and republics, to promotion of titular nationalities into administrative posts through the policy of korenizatsiia, to establishment of indigenous-language educational and media institutions.1 It also had a profound effect on the official approach to cultural production, not least in the area of music. For Soviet leaders, supporting the musical cultures of the national minorities meant both granting a new sense of value to existing folk traditions and bringing those traditions into the present by creating a repertoire of folk-inflected operas, symphonies, and chamber works for each minority group. These dual processes got underway in the 1930s, after the Soviet Union’s internal borders were settled and the militant “proletarian- ism” of the Cultural Revolution gave way to the more staid, ethnocentric atmosphere of the Second Five Year Plan.2 As Marina Frolova-Walker has detailed, Russian composers initially took the lead. Employing the ethos and methods of 19th-century Romantic nation- alism, they made ethnographic collections of indigenous folksongs and wove them into new symphonic and operatic works.3 This literature was intended only as a placeholder, however.

    Communist and Post-Communist Studies 52 (2019) 297e309 Communist and Post-Communist Studies Russian stereotypes and myths of Ukraine and Ukrainians and why Novorossiya failed* Taras Kuzio Downloaded from http://online.ucpress.edu/cpcs/article-pdf/52/4/297/5397/cpcs_52_4_297.pdf by guest on 07 June 2020 National University of Kyiv Mohyla Academy, Foreign Policy Institute, School of Advanced International Studies, Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore, USA article info abstract Article history: This article discusses two inter-related issues. Firstly, the factors lying behind Russia's Available online 2 November 2019 fervent belief that its Novorossiya (New Russia) project, aimed to bring back to Russia eight oblasts of Donetsk, Luhansk, Kharkiv, Dnipro, Zaporizhhya, Odesa, Mykolayiv, and Kherson Keywords: in eastern and southern Ukraine and launched during the 2014 “Russian Spring,” would be Russian-Ukrainian relations successful. Russian identity misunderstood, and continues to misunderstand, Ukraine and Russian spring Ukrainians through stereotypes and myths of Ukraine as an “artificial state” and Ukraine's Russian world Russian speakers as “fraternal brothers” and Russians and Ukrainians as “one people” (odin Crimea Donbas narod). Secondly, why Ukrainian national identity was different than these Russian ste- Novorossiya (New Russia) reotypes and myths and how this led to the failure of the Novorossiya project. Russian stereotypes and myths of Ukraine and Ukrainians came face to face with the reality of Russian-speaking Ukrainian patriotism and their low support for the Russkij Mir (Russian World). The article compares Russian stereotypes and myths of Ukraine and Ukrainians with how Ukrainians see themselves to explain the roots of the 2014 crisis, “Russian Spring,” and failure of Russian President Vladimir Putin's Novorossiya project.
