  • Belarus in the Congressional Record 1873–1994
    Belarus in the Congressional Record 1873–1994 BY TATSIANA KULAKEVICH Many authors have long recognised that migrants have an impact on employment, economic development, demographic trends, as well as foreign policy. The role of migrants can be both constructive, by providing ties and promoting democratic values between their home and host societies, or destructive, by serving as a source of instability in their homeland (Shain 2003). Large masses of people moving from one place to another can help societies better understand each other. Migrants can campaign to democratize authoritarian homeland regimes or serve as a force in the global economy by encouraging or discouraging global investment (Leblang 2010). Also, migrant communities of stateless nations historically played a major part in the struggle for political independence in their countries of origin (Shain 1994). This paper looks at evolving U.S. policy towards Belarus (1873-1994) translated through a domestic, intervening variable. Specifi cally, it focuses on the role of migrants contributing to the development of American government policy towards Belarus over more than a century. The role of the Belarusian diaspora in infl uencing political attitudes in general and specifi cally its signifi cance in U.S. policy towards Belarus has not received much coverage. P. Rudling, for example, suggests that, unlike its neighbors, at the beginning of the 20th century Belarus lacked a diaspora of any infl uence (Rudling 2012). O. Koval, in turn, indicates that individual Belarusian immigrants often joined the activities of Ukrainian, Polish, and Russian diasporas to promulgate their ideas. In any case, the political activity of Belarusian communities in the United States was not well visible from 1918 and 1939 (Koval 2010).

  • The Mississippi Freedom Democratic Party: Background and Recent
    THE MISSISSIPPI FREEDOM DEMOCRATIC PARTY Background lnformaUon for SUpportive Campaigns by Campus Groups repared by STEVE MAX Political Education ProJect, Room 309, 119 Firth Ave., N. Y .c. 10003 Associated with Students for a Democratic Society THE MISSISSIPPI FREEDOM DEMOCRATIC PARTY: BACKGROUND AND RECENT DEVELOPMENTS by STEVE IvlAX The Mississippi Freedom Democratic Party was founded April 26, 1964 in order to create an opportunity for meaningful political expres­ sion for the 438,000 adult Negro Mississippians ~ho traditionally have been denied this right. In-addition to being a political­ instrument, the FDP provides a focus for the coordination of civil rights activity in the state and around the country. Although its memters do not necessarily· think in the se -terms, the MFDP is the organization above all others whose work is most directly forcing a realignment within the Democratic Party. All individuals and organizations who understand that ' when the Negro is not free, then all are in chains; who realize that the present system of discrimi­ nation precludes the abolition of poverty, and who have an interest in t he destruction of the Dixiecrat-Republican alliance and the purging of the racists from the Democratic Party are poteptial allies of the MFDP. BACKGROUND INFORMATION- The Mississippi Democratic Party runs the state of Mississippi _wit h an iron hand·. It controls the legislative, executive and judicial be nches of the state government. Prior to the November, 1964 elec­ tion all 49 state Senators and all but one of the 122 Representa­ tives were Democrats. Mississippi sent four Democrats and one Goldwater Republican to Congress last November.
