At least this situation calls for a somewhat paradoxical diagnosis: should the nations presently enslaved within the USSR free themselves through national revolu­ tions? They could in the future, after their own liberation, come to assistance of some Western countries and help to free them from the Communist yoke, by which these countries are now directly endangered. How come that Communism is in crisis within the countries controlled by it and what are the means to get rid of the Communist menace? The Communist system did not grow organically out of the life of the peoples in their own countries. The enslaved nations neither selected the Communist way of life by free will, nor by democratic election, nor civil wars within their boundaries. Not one single subju­ gated nation within the USSR nation (Ukraine, Turkestan, Byelorussia, Georgia, Azerbaijan, Armenia, Northern Caucasus, Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia, and others), nor any of the satellites (Poland, East Germany, Bulgaria, Rumania, Slovakia, Czechia, Hungary, Croatia, and others) established Communism upon themselves by their own desire and efforts. Coccunism was bestowed upon them by the tips of Russian bayonets and maintained by force of the occupying troops. During 1918, and a short time after, the independent states of Ukraine, Byelorussia, Turkestan, Georgia and others (some even with Socialist governments) were re-established by the will of the peoples after the downfall of the Tsarist regime, defending their indepen­ dence. The “advent” of Lenin was a clever masking of the Messianic, imperialist Russian-Communist ideology by which the new Russian chauvinistic mafia was trying to save the empire namely, by replacing the corrupt Tsarist elite with a Bolshevik one. New slogans took over the old. Instead of the old Messianic ideology of the Tsarist regime 4 THE UKRAINIAN REVIEW in defence of the “ Orthodoxy” , Panslavism — there came to be a new one, with more perfidy and deceit, yet just as Messianic as before, preaching proletarian, international Communism aiming at “proletarian revolutions” throughout the world. Such “ ideas” had been stated already before, it was Dostoyevsky who wrote late in the XIXth century: “The Russian national idea is an universal idea, therefore, all people must become Russians” . The Tsarist ideology, and the system, therefore, became the modern Communist Russian neo-imperialist and neo-Colonial ideo­ logy and system, in that order. Lenin had Marxism applied to the Russiani realities, to the collective mentality and sociological needs of the broad Russian masses. Russians were always used to a collec­ tive way of life, having their mir, their obshchina, their “ collective” tilling of the earth. Yet, Karl Marx had meant his doctrines for the industrially developed nations and had excluded any possibilities for them to take root in Imperial Russia. MARX ABOUT RUSSIA Marx did warn the world about the “advent” of Russian imperial­ ism. During 1853-1856 he wrote a series of essays in the New York Tribune, which later were included in the collective volume Eastern Question, published in London (1897) by his daughter. Communist publishers in the USSR and elsewhere never did offer these essays to public attention. There Marx exposes Russian imperialism from a historical perspective, shows that it always used deceiving ideas in order to get a hold of and rule the entire world. Here are some quotations from what Marx had to say: “What remains constant and unchanging is the politics of Russian government. Methods can change, but Russian politics remain the same . Pan-Slavism, as a form of Russian imperialism, is not a move­ ment which aims at national independence, it is a movement which aims at Europe, aims to destroy all that, that was created by thousands of years of history. And it can not be achieved without burning out of the world’s map Hungary, Turkey, and a large part of Germany .. .. There is only one way to deal with such a world power as Russia: fearlessness ... The way of intimidation is less costly than open warfare. Russia is handing out so many diplomatic notes to Western diplomats, just like throwing bones to some dogs, to give them some harmless pleasure, while using all opportunities to gain in time . .. .. Conting upon cowardice and fear of the Western powers the Russian is intimidating Europe and screws in his demands as high as COMMUNISM IN CRISIS 5 possible only to show later how generous-hearted he is after obtaining what he really wants ... The Russian bear is going to get away with anything, as long as he knows, that other creatures he is dealing with are good for nothing .. Europe is decadent, but war would stir up some healthy elements. War would revive some lasting strengths . .. Marx also cites the court poet of Russian Tsarina Catherine the Second (Dzerzhavin), who said: ‘‘Why do you need allies, oh, Russian? March ahead and the world shall be yours!” And finally, from Marx: “ It can not be denied that at the time Russian influence upon European politics is at its peak — the true strength of the Russian army does not justify such a political conception at a ll. ..” This volume by Karl Marx, contalining over 150 pages about Russian expansionist plans always covered up by some Messianic “ideas” , did not take into account at all the fact that Marxism shall become the new deceitful “idea” , by which Communist Russian neo­ colonialism and neo-imperialism Shall cover themselves up, to force new nations and their peoples under the whip. FIRST ELEMENT OF THE CRISIS The first element of the crisis the Communist system is undergoing now in the countries behind the Iron Curtain is caused by the fact, that Communism has taken a modern form of Russian neo-Colonial- ism nad neo-imperialism. The Union of the Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR), with all the satellites, is not and does not represent voluntary union of the sovereign nations. It is a “union” under a totalitarian system making up the new Communist Russian empire, enforced by Russian arms and terror, into which highly cultural nations, some looking upon more than one thousand years of heritage, are hammered. The Achilles heel of every empire was and is any enslaved nation held voithin it by force. The national-liberation struggle of any enslaved peoples destroys an empire from within. During times when contemporary development of world affairs is characterized by disintegration and decolonization processess, such processess can not terminate after reaching the present borderlines of the Communist Russian empire. Membership in the United Na­ tions has quadrupled since the inception of this organization. At the same time Russian imperialists, under cover of Communism, proclaimed the creation of a new, unheard of, phenomenon: under Brezhnev’s leadership — one Soviet people, with one Russian langu­ age is to be moulded out of all. On 13 February 1976, during the XXYth Communist Party Congress of Ukraine, the first secretary, 6 THE UKRAINIAN REVIEW “ comrade” Shcherbitsky, delivered his address in Russian rather than in the Ukrainian language.

  • Improved Cryptanalysis of the Reduced Grøstl Compression Function, ECHO Permutation and AES Block Cipher
    Improved Cryptanalysis of the Reduced Grøstl Compression Function, ECHO Permutation and AES Block Cipher Florian Mendel1, Thomas Peyrin2, Christian Rechberger1, and Martin Schl¨affer1 1 IAIK, Graz University of Technology, Austria 2 Ingenico, France [email protected],[email protected] Abstract. In this paper, we propose two new ways to mount attacks on the SHA-3 candidates Grøstl, and ECHO, and apply these attacks also to the AES. Our results improve upon and extend the rebound attack. Using the new techniques, we are able to extend the number of rounds in which available degrees of freedom can be used. As a result, we present the first attack on 7 rounds for the Grøstl-256 output transformation3 and improve the semi-free-start collision attack on 6 rounds. Further, we present an improved known-key distinguisher for 7 rounds of the AES block cipher and the internal permutation used in ECHO. Keywords: hash function, block cipher, cryptanalysis, semi-free-start collision, known-key distinguisher 1 Introduction Recently, a new wave of hash function proposals appeared, following a call for submissions to the SHA-3 contest organized by NIST [26]. In order to analyze these proposals, the toolbox which is at the cryptanalysts' disposal needs to be extended. Meet-in-the-middle and differential attacks are commonly used. A recent extension of differential cryptanalysis to hash functions is the rebound attack [22] originally applied to reduced (7.5 rounds) Whirlpool (standardized since 2000 by ISO/IEC 10118-3:2004) and a reduced version (6 rounds) of the SHA-3 candidate Grøstl-256 [14], which both have 10 rounds in total.

  • Influence of Agglomerations on the Development of Tourism in the Lviv Region
    Studia Periegetica nr 3(27)/2019 DOI: 10.26349/st.per.0027.03 HALYNA LABINSKA* Influence of Agglomerations on the Development of Tourism in the Lviv Region Abstract. The author proposes a method of studying the influence of agglomerations on the development of tourism. The influence of agglomerations on the development of tourism is -il lustrated by the case of the Lviv region and the use of correlation analysis. In addition, official statistics about the main indicator of the tourism industry by region and city are subjected to centrographic analysis. The coincidence of weight centers confirms the exceptional influence of the Lviv agglomeration on the development of tourism in the region, which is illustrated with a cartographic visualization. Keywords: agglomeration, tourism, research methodology 1. Introduction Urbanization, as a complex social process, affects all aspects of society. The role of cities, especially large cities, in the life of Ukraine and its regions will only grow. The growing influence of cities on people’s lives and their activities was noted in the early 20th century by the professor V. Kubiyovych [1927]. Mochnachuk and Shypovych identified three stages of urbanization in Ukraine during the second half of the 20th century: 1) urbanization as a process of urban growth; 2) suburbanization – erosion of urban nuclei, formation of ag- glomerations; 3) rurbanization – urbanization of rural settlements within urban- ized areas [Mochnachuk, Shypovych 1972: 41-48]. The stage of rurbanization is ** Ivan Franko National University of Lviv (Ukraine), Department of Geography of Ukraine, e-mail: [email protected], orcid.org/0000-0002-9713-6291. 46 Halyna Labinska consistent with the classic definition of “agglomeration” in the context of Euro- pean urbanism: a system that includes the city and its environs (Pierre Merlen and Francoise Shoe).

  • Grøstl – a SHA-3 Candidate∗
    Grøstl – a SHA-3 candidate∗ http://www.groestl.info Praveen Gauravaram1, Lars R. Knudsen1, Krystian Matusiewicz1, Florian Mendel2, Christian Rechberger2, Martin Schl¨affer2, and Søren S. Thomsen1 1Department of Mathematics, Technical University of Denmark, Matematiktorvet 303S, DK-2800 Kgs. Lyngby, Denmark 2Institute for Applied Information Processing and Communications (IAIK), Graz University of Technology, Inffeldgasse 16a, A-8010 Graz, Austria January 15, 2009 Summary Grøstl is a SHA-3 candidate proposal. Grøstl is an iterated hash function with a compression function built from two fixed, large, distinct permutations. The design of Grøstl is transparent and based on principles very different from those used in the SHA-family. The two permutations are constructed using the wide trail design strategy, which makes it possible to give strong statements about the resistance of Grøstl against large classes of cryptanalytic attacks. Moreover, if these permutations are assumed to be ideal, there is a proof for the security of the hash function. Grøstl is a byte-oriented SP-network which borrows components from the AES. The S-box used is identical to the one used in the block cipher AES and the diffusion layers are constructed in a similar manner to those of the AES. As a consequence there is a very strong confusion and diffusion in Grøstl. Grøstl is a so-called wide-pipe construction where the size of the internal state is signifi- cantly larger than the size of the output. This has the effect that all known, generic attacks on the hash function are made much more difficult. Grøstl has good performance on a wide range of platforms, and counter-measures against side-channel attacks are well-understood from similar work on the AES.

  • Reading and Writing Against Destruction
    Transcultural Studies, 4 (2008), 107-117. EKATERINA NEKLYUDOVA READING AND WRITING AGAINST DESTRUCTION This article deals with the tactics of survival that the inmates of Gulag (the penitentiary system of prisons and labor camps in the Soviet Union)1 practiced while imprisoned. In particular, I focus on the theme of reading and writing in the conditions of the Soviet prisons and labor camps, where writing was mostly prohibited, and reading was limited and highly regulated and censored. However, the inmates of Soviet prisons managed to create, read, write and even publish their notes while incarcerated. I show how three survivors of the Soviet camps – Varlam Shalamov, Evgenia Ginzburg, and Eduard Kuznetsov used the acts of reading and writing to preserve their identities from complete corruption and disintegration. I argue that word as a grammatical unit of text initiates the process of the recovery and deliverance of prisoners’ morale. Varlam Shalamov (1907-1982), a writer and a journalist, was born in Rus- sian city of Vologda. He spent seventeen years in total in prisons and labor camps of Kolyma (1929-1931, 1937-1943, 1943-1951). When Shalamov was released and returned from the camps to the Western part of Russia (Kalinin- grad), he started recording his camp experience in the form of the semi- fictional, semi-documentary Kolymskie rasskazy [Kolyma Tales].2 Even though his camp prose was never published in the Soviet Union in his lifetime, it received worldwide publicity: Kolyma Tales was distributed by the under- ground movement of Samizdat and published abroad. The impact of these short stories was immense: they were considered as the most authentic and merciless descriptions of prisoners’ sufferings in the Soviet camps of the Sta- linist regime.
