  • THE GOD THAT IS FAILING-I Bibekananda Ray
    Frontier Vol. 43, No. 17, November 7-13, 2010 THE GOD THAT IS FAILING-I Bibekananda Ray In November 1949 came out a book in the USA that brought to the ken of the non-communist world the disillusion about communism of six renowned Western writers. Called 'The god that failed', it was an anthology of experiences of communist society of Arthur Koestler, Ignazio Si-lone, Richard Wright, Andre Gide, Louis Fischer and Stephen Spender who became ardent members of communist parties of their respective countries- Germany, Italy, USA, France and Britain, but quit out of frustration. It became an instant best-seller for its revelation of the workings of communist parties and governments of five countries. Alfred Hitchcock's 'Torn Curtain' (1966) was a celluloid revelation of the same in East Germany. This disillusion became a deja vous in works of many other writers and artists in countries where communism thrived. In Soviet Russia, two great writers–Boris Pasternak (1890-1960) and Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn (1918-2008) shocked readers with the persecution and honors that their protagonists experienced in two novels—Dr Zhivago (1957) and Gulag Archipelago (1973), the second a trilogy, describing a forced labour camp for dissidents in Siberia, which fetched them Nobel Prizes in literature in 1958 and 1970. A German writer, Herta Muller, awarded Nobel Prize in 2009, revealed to the world through her poems, novels and essays the oppressive regime of President Nicolae Ceauses of Romania where she was born. Ayn Rand was equally frank about the effects of communism in Germany in "We the Living'.

  • Red Bengal's Rise and Fall
    kheya bag RED BENGAL’S RISE AND FALL he ouster of West Bengal’s Communist government after 34 years in power is no less of a watershed for having been widely predicted. For more than a generation the Party had shaped the culture, economy and society of one of the most Tpopulous provinces in India—91 million strong—and won massive majorities in the state assembly in seven consecutive elections. West Bengal had also provided the bulk of the Communist Party of India– Marxist (cpm) deputies to India’s parliament, the Lok Sabha; in the mid-90s its Chief Minister, Jyoti Basu, had been spoken of as the pos- sible Prime Minister of a centre-left coalition. The cpm’s fall from power also therefore suggests a change in the equation of Indian politics at the national level. But this cannot simply be read as a shift to the right. West Bengal has seen a high degree of popular mobilization against the cpm’s Beijing-style land grabs over the past decade. Though her origins lie in the state’s deeply conservative Congress Party, the challenger Mamata Banerjee based her campaign on an appeal to those dispossessed and alienated by the cpm’s breakneck capitalist-development policies, not least the party’s notoriously brutal treatment of poor peasants at Singur and Nandigram, and was herself accused by the Communists of being soft on the Maoists. The changing of the guard at Writers’ Building, the seat of the state gov- ernment in Calcutta, therefore raises a series of questions. First, why West Bengal? That is, how is it that the cpm succeeded in establishing

Amid the anecdotes and speculation, most of the available empirical research in this area has examined how new media have enabled participants and spectators to produce and circulate protest-related content. In contrast, the current study investigates patterns of consumption of Arab Spring– related content using a unique data set constructed by combining archived Twitter content with metadata drawn from the URL shortening service Bit.ly. This data set allows us to explore two critical research questions: First, were links posted to Twitter (among other platforms) followed primarily by individuals inside the affected country, within the broader Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region or by those outside the region and country? And second, who attracted more attention online: protesters and other nonelite citizens or traditional news organizations? Our findings suggest that the vast majority of attention to Arab Spring content came from outside of the MENA region and, furthermore, that mass media, rather than citizen media, overwhelmingly held the world’s attention during the protests. We thus conclude that Twitter was broadly useful as an information channel for non-MENA onlookers but less so for protesters on the ground.
