Book Synopsis Communism and the Conscience of the West by : Fulton J. Sheen
Download or read book Communism and the Conscience of the West written by Fulton J. Sheen and published by . This book was released on 2021-10-20 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Communism and the Conscience of the West revolves around the single, disconcerting idea that Communism, in both its ideological and practical forms, is on the conscience of the Western world. Because the West has broadly lost that spiritual sensibility which made it great, thus reducing both man and cosmos to wholly material and base realities, Fulton J. Sheen argues, there is nothing to prevent the dissolution of the old order into a new and terrifying totality. And thus appears Communism: the recalcitrant, neurotic child of a permissive, neglectful parent. Since it first appeared in 1948, during the initial frigid days of the Cold War, Communism and the Conscience of the West has proven to be a prophetic witness to the grave dangers of decadent, individualistic liberalism and atheistic, collectivist totalitarianism alike. While the Cold War has ended and Soviet Union passed away, these dangers have endured and even metastasized. For the basic struggle remains: the moral and spiritual struggle for the very soul of mankind.

Book Synopsis The Cambridge History of Communism by : Norman Naimark
Download or read book The Cambridge History of Communism written by Norman Naimark and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2017-09-21 with total page 700 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The second volume of The Cambridge History of Communism explores the rise of Communist states and movements after World War II. Leading experts analyze archival sources from formerly Communist states to re-examine the limits to Moscow's control of its satellites; the de-Stalinization of 1956; Communist reform movements; the rise and fall of the Sino-Soviet alliance; the growth of Communism in Asia, Africa and Latin America; and the effects of the Sino-Soviet split on world Communism. Chapters explore the cultures of Communism in the United States, Western Europe and China, and the conflicts engendered by nationalism and the continued need for support from Moscow. With the danger of a new Cold War developing between former and current Communist states and the West, this account of the roots, development and dissolution of the socialist bloc is essential reading.

Book Synopsis West European Communism and American Foreign Policy by : Michael Arthur Ledeen
Download or read book West European Communism and American Foreign Policy written by Michael Arthur Ledeen and published by Transaction Publishers. This book was released on 1987-01-01 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The great vogue of Eurocommunism came to an end with the return of the French and Italian Communist Parties to positions of opposition to authority in the late 1970's, and the electoral confirmation that Spain's Communist Party would remain small. As the vogue of communism with a human face passed. The question of American policy toward Communists became far less pressing; yet the question will almost certainly require attention in the future. This is particularly true with respect to the Italian Communist Party, which remains powerful in numbers and flexible in policy. Michael Ledeen examines Communist Party participation in Western European governments since World War II, and the ambivalent American foreign policy toward it. He concentrates on the Italian Communist Party: its history and its relations with the Soviet Union. Togliatti, Secchia, Gramsci, Nenni are identified as the major players in Italian communist and socialist politics. The author explores in depth why the United States has been reluctant to become involved in internal Italian affairs, and how this policy posture has strongly influenced in the development of communism in Western Europe. Ledeen shows that the strategies of contemporary West European Communist Parties are now roughly similar to those of the immediate post-war period. He argues that American intellectuals are as uncritical of Eurocommunism as they were after the first flush of Allied victory in World War II, that the Carter administration's foreign policy was incoherent, and that the United States needs a consistent, ideological approach to communism--one that includes the capacity for action as well as reaction. Michael Ledeen is a senior associate of the Center for Strategic and International Studies at Georgetown University, and formerly taught history at Washington University. He was the founding editor of The Washington Quarterly, and is the author of, among other works, Grave New World; The First Duce: D'Annunzio at Fiume; and editor of U.S. Defense and Foreign Policy.

Download or read book Communism Returns written by Tom Iceland and published by Outskirts Press. This book was released on 2020-01-14 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When the Soviet Union fell in 1991, the Western world thought socialism was over while rejoicing in their apparent victory over the "evil empire." In the eyes of the jubilant West capitalism had won and even the communist People's Republic of China (PRC) looked to be abandoning socialism for the capitalist way of life - but was it? The West wasted no time in expanding its global dominance. The United States rushed into Asia and the Middle East without weighing the massive costs. Western Europe expanded into Central and Eastern Europe to create the grand European Union (EU) with "schadenfreude" visions of replacing the United States as the leader of the Western world. In its hasty global expansion the West adopted its own version of socialism, corporate socialism and government enterprise, in the early 1990s that proliferated into the 21st century. Little did the United States or even the wiser elite of the European Union realize that they were playing into the new strategy of international socialism's real leader, that being the PRC's Chinese Communist Party (CCP). Alas, now there is a popular call to adopt "full throttle" socialism in the Western world's 20th Century leader, the United States of America! Communism Returns-Takes the West explains why converting to socialism would not only be a mistaken path for the United States, but even more so describes how today's Western nations are already largely socialist countries, which has caused their economic decline in the 21st century. As a result of practicing corporate socialism and government enterprise for over 25 years, the United States and European Union have descended into a de facto STATE of socialism that resembles a synthesis of 20th Century Marxist-Leninism, Maoism and Fascism complete with the accompanying favored upper and government classes, elitist rule and forced industrialization in certain industries (i.e. green energy, technology, banking, housing, health care) that was so espoused by Lenin, Stalin and Moa. This STATE dominates the Western economies and is controlled tightly by an almost byzantine central economic planning (CEP) network of global central bankers, technology oligarchs and elitist government bureaucracies. This network also has the long standing support of a domineering media emporium intent on indoctrinating the Western masses that socialism will lead them into some prosperous utopia they call equality, absent the reality that the Western world's inequality has only grown acutely worse under their socialist STATE's control for the past quarter century.
Book Synopsis The Oxford Handbook of the History of Communism by : S. A. Smith
Download or read book The Oxford Handbook of the History of Communism written by S. A. Smith and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2014-01-09 with total page 834 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The impact of Communism on the twentieth century was massive, equal to that of the two world wars. Until the fall of the Soviet Union in 1991, historians knew relatively little about the secretive world of communist states and parties. Since then, the opening of state, party, and diplomatic archives of the former Eastern Bloc has released a flood of new documentation. The thirty-five essays in this Handbook, written by an international team of scholars, draw on this new material to offer a global history of communism in the twentieth century. In contrast to many histories that concentrate on the Soviet Union, The Oxford Handbook of the History of Communism is genuinely global in its coverage, paying particular attention to the Chinese Revolution. It is 'global', too, in the sense that the essays seek to integrate history 'from above' and 'from below', to trace the complex mediations between state and society, and to explore the social and cultural as well as the political and economic realities that shaped the lives of citizens fated to live under communist rule. The essays reflect on the similarities and differences between communist states in order to situate them in their socio-political and cultural contexts and to capture their changing nature over time. Where appropriate, they also reflect on how the fortunes of international communism were shaped by the wider economic, political, and cultural forces of the capitalist world. The Handbook provides an informative introduction for those new to the field and a comprehensive overview of the current state of scholarship for those seeking to deepen their understanding.
Book Synopsis Decline and Discontent by : Paul Hollander
Download or read book Decline and Discontent written by Paul Hollander and published by Transaction Pub. This book was released on 1992 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Among the sources of dissatisfaction and loss of legitimacy the author emphasizes not only the discrepancies between theory and practice, but--unlike many other students of such systems--also the part played by the implementation of Marxism-Leninism in the failures of these systems. He notes the paradox that while Western authors developed lively and detailed scenarios about the impending decline of the United States, few anticipated the crises and dramatic unravelling of Communist systems. The second part of the volume addresses the more elusive discontents found in the West and especially the United States, articulated by intellectuals, educators, and opinion makers. Here the author considers the possibility that a wide variety of highly personal discontents have in recent times taken social-political forms and found public expression

Book Synopsis Red International and Black Caribbean by : Margaret Stevens
Download or read book Red International and Black Caribbean written by Margaret Stevens and published by Black Critique. This book was released on 2017 with total page 303 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: *Selected as one of openDemocracy's Best Political Books of 2017*This is the history of the black radicals who organised as Communists between the two imperialist wars of the twentieth century. It explores the political roots of a dozen organisations and parties in New York City, Mexico and the Black Caribbean, including the Anti-Imperialist League, and the American Negro Labour Congress and the Haiti Patriotic League, and reveals a history of myriad connections and shared struggle across the continent.This book reclaims the centrality of class consciousness and political solidarity amongst these black radicals, who are too often represented as separate from the international Communist movement which emerged after the Russian Revolution in 1917. Instead, it describes the inner workings of the 'Red International' in relation to struggles against racial and colonial oppression. It introduces a cast of radical characters including Richard Moore, Otto Huiswoud, Navares Sager, Grace Campbell, Rose Pastor Stokes and Wilfred Domingo.Challenging the 'great men' narrative, Margaret Stevens emphasises the role of women in their capacity as laborers; the struggles of peasants of colour; and of black workers in and around Communist parties.
