Comrade ST ALIN- Leader of Progressive Mankind G. MALENKOV Comrade STALIN­ Leader of Progressive Mankind FOREIGN LANGUAGES PUBLISIDNG HOUSE G. MAL EN K 0 V Comrade ST ALIN­ Leader of Progressive Mankind FOREIGN LANGUAGES PUBLISHING HOUSE Moscow 1950 The present edition is a translation of a pamphlet written by G. Malenkov on the occasion of J . V. Stalin's seventieth birthday, published by Gospolitizdat, Moscow 1950. A quarter of a century ago Comrade Stalin vowed in the name of the Party to fulfil the behests of Lenin with credit. This vow resounded as a battle call to the Party, to the working class, to the Soviet people; it was the guiding star in the historic struggle for the transformation of social life, for the building of socialist society. Comrade Stalin led our Party and the Soviet people along Lenin's path. He upheld and developed Lenin's theory of the possibility of building Socialism in one .country. Carrying out Lenin's behests, our Party, led by Comrade Stalin, effected the socialist industrialization of our country and the collectivization of our agriculture, and converted the Soviet Union into a great industrial and collective-farm socialist power. Comrade Stalin understood Lenin's inspired ideas re­ garding a Marxist party of a new type with a profundity equalled by none; he protected the purity of the teaching of Marx-Engels-Lenin, developed the Marxist-Leninist theory, and steeled the Party in battle against numerous enemies; he has trained, and continues to train, cadres capable of advancing the cause of our Party. In October 1917, in the Civil War, in the years of intervention, when Comrade Stalin, together with Lenin, directed the Socialist Revolution and the vanquishing of the enemies of Soviet power, in the Great Patriotic War, when he directed the vanquishing of some of the most powerful enemies of our Motherland-at all these momen­ tous turning points of history, the grandeur of Stalin was manifest to the whole world. II TDgether with the great Lenin, CDmrade Stalin fDunded the first SDdalist State in the wurld. Under the banner Df Lenin, under the leadership uf CDmrade Stalin, Dur mighty MDtherland, the SDviet Land, whDse Ip,eDples are bDund.by amity and friendship, is alive, growing and gain­ ing strength. In the secund wDrld war, when the world was menaced by the dark f01'ces Df fascism, and human civilizatiDn was threatened with destructiDn, CDmrade Stalin, heading the Suviet UniDn, persDnally directed the defeat of Hitler's hurdes, secured the victDry Df the peace-IDving natiDns, was the recDgnized leader iIn the grim struggle fOol' the liberatiDn uf mankind frDm the fascist yuke. "\¥hen the secDnd wDrld war was ended, and new aspirants to wDrld dDminatiDn' appeared on the s{'ene, Comrade Stalin urged the peoples tOo fight resDlutely against the instigatDrs Df ,a new wurld war, and welded the partisans of peace intD a mighty furce. CDnsistently and relentlessly eXJposing the incendiaries Df a new war, CDmrade Stalin became the leader Df the great mDvement fur peace. CDmrade Stalin is rightly regarded as a great and luyal friend Df the freedDm-IDving natiuns uf the PeDple's De­ mucracies, liberated from faseist subjugatiDn, and Df the peuples ad' China and Nurth KDrea, whu have thrDwn uff the imperialist yoke Dnce and fOol' all. That is why the peuples Df the Soviet UniDn and all prDgressive humanity IDUk u.pDn CDmrade Stalin as their recDgnized leader and teacher. That is why tDday they SD express their warm IDve and devotion tOo CDmrade Stalin and acknDwledge his great services in the struggle fur a h3jppy life and fOol' peace amung nations. Cumrade Stalin's name has IDng been a symbDI uf peace in the minds Df the peDples Df all cDuntries. All WhD are anxiDus tOo cDmbat the instigators Df a 4 new war know and are convinced that they make no mistake in rallying around Comrade Stalin, the great de­ fender of peace. Having lived through the Ihorrors of the last world war, humanity yearns for peace and is firmly opposed to another carnage. It is because of this that all peoples welcome with gratitude the resolute and unqualified policy of \peace pursued and upheld by Comrade Stalin. Try as they may to slander our socialist country, the warmongers will not succeed in destroying the conviction of the common people that the Soviet Un10n is a sincere champion of peace and consistently works to safeguard peace throughout the world, that our country, as Com­ rade Stalin says, is capable of pursuing and is actually pursuing a policy of peace, and is doing so not hypo­ critically, but honestly and frankly, resolutely aIO!d con­ sistently. Their reckless and presumptuous designs having been exposed, the warmongers are endeavouring to deceive the common people by falsely asserting that the Com­ munists consider it impossible f'0r socialist countries and capitalist countries to coexist in peace. They endeav­ our to camouflage their criminal activities in preparing a new war by slandering the sincere p'0licy of peace pursued by the Communists. Yet Comrade Stalin has very definitely declared time and again that the Soviet Union proceeds from the fact that the two systems-Socialism and capitalism-must in­ evitably exist side by side for a long time, and firmly adheres to the line of loyal and peaceful relations with all states which manifest a desire for friendly coopera­ tion, Iprovided the principles of reciprocity and fulfilment of obligations assumed are observed. The Soviet Union's foreign policy, conducted under the guidance of Comrade Stalin, is aimed at ensnring 5 durable peace among the peoples and strengthening to the utmost friendly cooperation among the peace-loving nations. And on repeated occasions since the second world war, too, Comrade Stalin has precisely stated in reply to ques­ tions that peaceful and Iprolonged cooperation between the U.S.S.R. and the capitalist countries is entirely pos­ sible. It will suffice to recall at least tbe following £orthright and unambiguous statements of Comrade Stalin. In September 1946, Mr. Alexander Werth, MosC()w correspondent of the Sunday Times, asked Comrade Stalin whether he believed that, with the further progress of the Soviet Union towal'ds Communism, the chances of peaceful cooperation with the outside world would re­ main undiminished insofar as the Soviet Union was con­ cerned, and also whether "Communism in one country" was possible. To this Comrade Stalin replied: "I do not doubt but that the possibilities for peaceful cooperation will not only not diminish, but may even increase. 'Com­ munism in one C()untry' is quite possible, eiSpecially in a country like the Soviet Union." In December 1946, Elliot Roosevelt asked Comrade Stalin whether he thought it possible that such a democ­ racy like the United States could live peacefully side by side in this world with such a communist fO'rm of govern­ ment as existed in the Soviet Union, and that attempts would not be made by either side to interfere in the inter­ nal political affairs of the other. Comrade Stalin replied: "Yes, of course. This is not only possible but sensible and quite feasible. In the most tense periods of the war the differences in form of government did not prevent our two countries from uniting and defeating our eneruies. 'To an even greater extent is it possible to preserve these relations in peacetime." 6 In April 1947, Comrade Stalin said in the interview with Mr. Stassen: " ... One should not indulge too much in criticism of .one another's system. Every people adheres to the system it wants and is able to adhere to. Whkh system is best, history will show. One must respect the system chosen and approved by the people. Whether the system m the U.S.A. lis good or bad is the affair of the American peotple. Nations need not have identical systems in order to cooperate. One must respect the systems chosen by the people. Only on this condition is coopera­ tion ·possible." In May 1948, in reply to Mr. Wallace's open letter, Comrade Stalin wrote: " ... The Government of the U.S.S.R. considers that, notwithstanding the differ­ ence i!n economic systems and ideology, the coexistence of these systems and peaceful regulation of differences between the U.S.S.R. and the ,U.S.A. are not only pos­ sible but absolutely essential in the interests of general peace." In January 1949, Mr. Kingsbury Smith, European general manager of International News Service, asked Comrade Stalin whether the Government of the US.S.R. would be prepared to consider the issuance of a joint declaration with the Government of the United States of America asserting tIlat tbe respective governments have no intention of resorting to war against one another, and whether the Government of the U.S.S.R. would be pre­ pared to join with the Government of the United States of America in measures designed to implement ~his Pact of Peace, .such as gradual disarmament, Comrade Stalin replied that "the Soviet Government wuuld be pr€lpared to consider the issuance of such a declaration," and fur­ ther: '''It goes without saying that the Government 'of .the U.S:S.R. would cooperate with the Government of the United States of America in measures designed at 1 the implementation of a Pact of Peace and leading to gradual disarmament." This is what Comrade Stalin says, expressing the de­ sire of the Soviet people for peaceful, constructive labour. for the establishment of friendly relations among the peo­ ples of all countries. TIle Soviet Union considers the line of iPeaceful competition with capitalism quite acceptable.

  • Soviet Jewish Immigrants: a Study in Ethnic Identity A
    SOVIET JEWISH IMMIGRANTS: A STUDY IN ETHNIC IDENTITY A Thesis Presented to the Faculty of the Department of Anthropology University of Houston In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts By Barbara E. Liss December 1978 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I would like to express my appreciation to Mr. Sol Brownstein, executive director of the Jew­ ish Family Service, Houston, Texas, for allowing me to interview the agency's immigrant clients. Also, I want to thank Ms. Barbara Meistrich, the social worker at the Jewish Family Service who first introduced me to the immigrant community and took a great interest in the study. SOVIET JEWISH IMMIGRANTS: A STUDY IN ETHNIC IDENTITY An Abstract of a Thesis Presented to the Faculty of the Department of Anthropology University of Houston In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts By Barbara E. Liss December 1978 iv ABSTRACT A definition of ethnic identity as proposed by Barth and modified by Levy is presented. A group of twenty-three Soviet Jews, recently resettled in Houston, Texas, was investigated to determine whether they fulfill the requirements of ethnic identity as defined in this study. A description of Soviet Jews and an historical overview from before the 1917 Rev­ olution through contemporary times show the cultural changes that have occurred in Soviet Jewish life. Informal interviews with the immigrants provide the data for the evaluation of their ethnic identity. The data show that the Soviet Jews in this study have an ethnic identity as defined, based on the features of ascription and adoption of cultural symbols that are socially effective.

  • Edelmann Florian
    ‘With one’s back to the wall?’ A Social Systems Theory Approach to the Comparative Study of Revolutionary Terrorism Florian Edelmann A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of International Politics Aberystwyth University 30 September 2016 103,920 19 January 2017 19 January 2017 19 January 2017 19 January 2017 Thesis Abstract This PhD thesis develops a complex, multi-layered conceptual framework and analytical strategy for approaching ‘clandestine political violence’ (della Porta 2013) from a thoroughly communicative perspective. More precisely, the thesis sets out to conceptualise how revolutionary identities are (re)produced in radical ‘discourse communities’ (Apter 1997b) by interpreting socio-political realities, constructing counter-memories, and establishing a semantics of ‘armed struggle’ to legitimise the use of violent means in non- revolutionary situations and pacified, democratic societies. Its theoretical framework builds on Niklas Luhmann’s social systems theory (Luhmann 1995a, 1998, 2002a; Luhmann and Hellmann 1996) as well as on seminal work in social movement studies (Bosi and della Porta 2012; Caiani et al. 2012; della Porta 1995; Zwerman et al. 2000), social semiotics and critical discourse analysis (Fairclough 1995c; Fairclough et al. 2011; Halliday 1978b, 1985; Wodak 1989, 1996; Wodak and Meyer 2009). The project’s empirical chapters comparatively analyse the writings of two left-wing armed formations in late 20th century Germany and the ways in which these were perceived in the contemporary radical counter-public. Case studies are the ‘2nd of June Movement’ and the ‘Revolutionary Cells’, two German groups ‘in the shadow of the RAF’ (Kraushaar 2006b).

  • UNION of SOVIET SOCIALIST REPUBLICS 1 MISSION to the UNITED NATIONS 21 Augus: ~ 136 EAST 67Th STREET
    PRESS· RELEASE UNION OF SOVIET SOCIALIST REPUBLICS 1 MISSION TO THE UNITED NATIONS 21 Augus: ~ 136 EAST 67th STREET. NEW YORK 21, N.Y. 1 68 TASS STATEMENT TASS is authorized to state that party and government leaders of the Czechoslovak Socialist Republic have asked the Soviet Union and other allied states to render the fraternal Czechaslovak people urgent assistance, including assistance with armed forces. This request was brought about by the threat which was arisen to the socialist system, eJ4 sting in Czechoslovakia, and to the statehood established by the constitution, the threat emanating from the counter­ revolutionary forces which have entered into a collusion with foreign forces hostile to so cia lis m. The events in Czecloslovakia and around her were repeatedly the subject of exchanges of views between leaders of fraternal socialist countries, including the leaders of Czechoslovakia. These countries are unanimous in that the sup­ port 1 consolidation and defence of the peoples' socialist gains is a common internationalist duty of all the socialist states. This common stand of theirs was solemnly proclaimed in the Bratislava statement. The further aggravation of the situation in Czechoslovakia affects the vital interests of the Soviet Union and other socialist states , the interests of the security of the states of the socialist community. The threat to the socialist system in Czechoslovakia constitutes at the same time a threat to the mainstays of European peace. The Soviet Government and the governments of the allied countries -­ the People 1 s Republic of Bulgaria, the Hungarian People 1 s Republic, the Germa.n Democratic Republic, the Polish People's Republic-- proceeding from the priri­ ciples of inseverable friendship and co-operation and in accordance with the existing contractual commitments 1 have decided to meet the above-mentioned requests for rendering necessary help to the fraternal Czechoslovak people.

Dissertation Advisor: Professor Judith Ryan Robert Dean Kohen Dreaming Empire: European Writers in the Fascist Era Abstract This dissertation explores how literary writers from across Western and Central Europe—namely Germany, Italy, Britain and France—invoked Europe’s legacy of empire and colonialism in their attempt to come to terms with the specter of fascism. It argues that empire became the site upon which a wide range of writers built their critiques, sometimes overt and other times subvert, against a rising tide of fascist ideology in the 1930s and 1940s. What results is a condemningly critical—and in the case of writers publishing within fascist regimes, outright subversive—reading of fascism.

Lazar Fleishman Episodes from the History of American-Soviet Cultural Relations Stanford Slavic Studies, Volume 5 (1992) translated by Ronald D. LeBlanc 1 Author’s Foreword The present volume may be viewed as an idiosyncratic sequel to the book, Russkii Berlin [Russian Berlin], which I – along with Olga Raevskaia-Hughes and Robert Hughes – prepared for publication and then published in 1983. It grows directly out of the work that was begun by the three of us at that time (work that I recall with a feeling of ardent gratitude) and is likewise based entirely upon materials on Russian literature and culture that are housed in a single, but extraordinarily valuable, collection – the archive of the Hoover Institution. As was true in that earlier case, this archive consists of materials that outwardly appear to be heterogeneous, materials, furthermore, that relate to what are decidedly divergent stages in the history of Russian culture – the prerevolutionary stage in the first section (the “Gorky” section) and the Soviet stage in the second section.

  • The Negro Nation
    Harry Haywood: The Negro Nation The following is Chapter VII of Harry Haywood‘s 1948 book, Negro Liberation. In the struggle against the plantation system of the South, the Negro people are necessarily the chief driving force. The liberal “remedies” which shy away from the fundamental economic changes indispensable for the democratic transformation of the South, ignore this crucial fact and, with it, they ignore the special character of the social and political struggle of the Negroes. The Myth of Race The “white supremacists” insist on presenting the Negro question as one of race. This makes it possible for them to “justify” the notorious color-caste system in the name of spurious race dogmas which depict the Negros servile status in American life, not as the result of man-imposed Harry Haywood, 1948 prescription, but as a condition fixed by nature. Negro inequality is supposedly due to natural inherent differences. In this credo, Negroes presumably are a lower form of organism, mentally primitive and emotionally undeveloped. “Keeping the Negro in his place” is thus allegedly prescribed by nature and fixed by Holy Writ. Color of skin is made an index to social position. Race, a strictly limited biological concept, becomes a social factor and used as an instrument for perpetuating and intensifying Negro subjugation. The Negro problem is explained in terms of natural conflict between races, the result of inborn peculiarities. This hideous distortion, whose roots go back into ante-bellum times and beyond, permeates the entire cultural pattern of the South; this vile calumny is fixed in the South’s folkways, mores and customs, sanctioned in its laws, and, in the last analysis buttressed by violence and lynch terror.

By focusing on pre-Great War and post-Great War periods it reveals the shift that occurred in their approbation of T. H. Green’s theory of rights. It argues that the Great War served as a deterrent for the younger generation of British Idealists, as it did for other liberal British intellectuals, from perceiving the empire as a plausible and/or sustainable international order.
