Gazety wojenne 109 - Chiny - ofensywa komunistyczn a.pdf

Pierwsze namiastki wojny domowej w Chinach sięgają końca lat dwudziestych. Okupacja japońska chwilowo przyćmiła i osłabiła wewnętrzne rozbieżności pomiędzy Komunistyczną Partią Chin Mao Tse-tunga i nacjonalistycznym Kuomintangiem. Wraz z kapitulacją Japonii starcia obu stron przybrały na sile. Zwycięstwo komunistów zostało ukoronowane 1 października 1949 roku proklamacją Chińskiej Republiki Ludowej.

Gazety wojenne 110 - W orbicie ZSRR.pdf

Trzem europejskim sojusznikom III Rzeszy: Węgrom, Rumunii i Bułgarii nie udało się uniknąć wciągnięcia ich w orbitę wpływów Związku Radzieckiego. Poza interesem politycznym, olbrzymią rolę odegrał tu również interes gospodarczy, a zwłaszcza opanowanie rumuńskich złóż ropy naftowej, tak cennej niegdyś dla niemieckich planów wojskowych.

Gazety wojenne 113 - Pucz w Czechosłowacji.pdf

Pozornie niezależna Czechosłowacja, której początkowo udało się uniknąć tak radykalnego przejęcia władzy, jakie miało miejsce w innych państwach kontrolowanych przez ZSRR, niedługo utrzymała swą swobodę. Przewrót polityczny roku 1948 nie tylko doprowadził do dymisji prezydenta Benesza, ale zaowocował definitywnym przejęciem władzy przez Komunistyczną Partię Czechosłowacji.

Gazety wojenne 114 - Berlin roku 1948.pdf

Próba sił, jaką Związek Radziecki narzucił zachodnim mocarstwom na dowód przyjętej przez siebie linii politycznej, odbiła się również na podzielonych na sektory okupacyjne Niemczech. Blokada Berlina w 1948 roku, zamiast zmusić Zachód do uległości, pogłębiła tylko przepaść dzielącą oba coraz bardziej wrogie sobie obozy.

Wojna w Korei podzielonej na dwa wrogo nastawione do siebie państwa - Koreę Północną i Koreę Południową - przerodziła się w kilkuletnią walkę, której polityczny zasięg daleko przekroczył granice tego niewielkiego azjatyckiego państwa. Symboliczne starcie komunistycznego Wschodu i kapitalistycznego Zachodu w pierwszym rzędzie budził niepokój w znajdujących się w łudząco podobnej sytuacji politycznej Niemczech.

Ezra F. Vogel - Deng Xiaoping and the Transformati on of China (2011).epub

Perhaps no one in the twentieth century had a greater long-term impact on world history than Deng Xiaoping. And no scholar of contemporary East Asian history and culture is better qualified than Ezra Vogel to disentangle the many contradictions embodied in the life and legacy of China’s boldest strategist.

Once described by Mao Zedong as a “needle inside a ball of cotton,” Deng was the pragmatic yet disciplined driving force behind China’s radical transformation in the late twentieth century. He confronted the damage wrought by the Cultural Revolution, dissolved Mao’s cult of personality, and loosened the economic and social policies that had stunted China’s growth. Obsessed with modernization and technology, Deng opened trade relations with the West, which lifted hundreds of millions of his countrymen out of poverty. Yet at the same time he answered to his authoritarian roots, most notably when he ordered the crackdown in June 1989 at Tiananmen Square.

Deng’s youthful commitment to the Communist Party was cemented in Paris in the early 1920s, among a group of Chinese student-workers that also included Zhou Enlai. Deng returned home in 1927 to join the Chinese Revolution on the ground floor. In the fifty years of his tumultuous rise to power, he endured accusations, purges, and even exile before becoming China’s preeminent leader from 1978 to 1989 and again in 1992. When he reached the top, Deng saw an opportunity to creatively destroy much of the economic system he had helped build for five decades as a loyal follower of Mao—and he did not hesitate.

Regin Schmidt - Red Scare; FBI and the Origins of Anticommunism in the United (2000).pdf

The anticommunist crusade of the Federal Bureau of Investigation did not start with the Cold War. Based on research in the early files of the FBI's predecessor, the Bureau of Investigation, the author describes how the federal security officials played a decisive role in bringing about the first anticommunist hysteria in the US, the Red Scare in 1919 to 1920. The Bureau's political role, it is argued, originated in the attempt by the modern federal state during the early decades of the 20th century to regulate and control any organised opposition to the political, economic and social order.

Monica Moorehead - Marxism, Reparations & the Blac k Freedom Struggle (2007).pdf

From the daily instances of police brutality and racial profiling to the government’s callous disregard of poor and mainly African American people in the wake of the Hurricane Katrina, this remarkable book identifies the continuing struggles for justice among a society still permeated with the racism, oppression, and economic, political, and social discrimination that resulted from the horrendous transatlantic slave trade. Illuminating the often forgotten history of this diaspora and the legacy of brutal prejudice that stemmed from it, this critical argument discusses the fight for reparations within the United States as well as among the peoples of Africa and the Caribbean.

Antony C. Sutton - The Best Enemy Money Can Buy (1 986).pdf

The business of lending blood money is one of the most thoroughly sordid, cold blooded, and criminal acts that were ever carried on, to any considerable extent, amongst human beings. It is like lending money to slave traders, or to common robbers and pirates, to be repaid out of their plunder. And the man who loans money to governments, so called, for the purpose of enabling the latter to rob, enslave and murder their own people, are among the greatest villains that the world has ever seen.

With mountains of documentation, mostly from government and corporate sources, Sutton shows that Soviet military technology is heavily dependent on U.S. and allied gifts, "peaceful trade" and exchange programs. We've built for, sold, traded, or given outright to the Communists everything from copper wiring and military trucks to tank technology, missile guidance technology, and computers - even the Space Shuttle.

---------------------

In particular, The Best Enemy Money Can Buy offers extensive documented evidence that western corporations consistently sold weapons technology and raw materials to the communist Soviet regime during the cold war. According to Sutton, the cold war Soviet military machine would not have been able to develop to anywhere near the levels it did without this treasonous support from our own back yards. The very weapons sold to enemies of the west would later be used to kill US forces in Vietnam, yet these companies were not held to account.

Frederick Kempe - Berlin 1961; Kennedy, Khrushchev , and the Most Dangerous Place on Earth (2012).epub

In June 1961, Nikita Khrushchev called Berlin "the most dangerous place on earth." He knew what he was talking about.
Much has been written about the Cuban Missile Crisis a year later, but the Berlin Crisis of 1961 was more decisive in shaping the Cold War-and more perilous. It was in that hot summer that the Berlin Wall was constructed, which would divide the world for another twenty-eight years. Then two months later, and for the first time in history, American and Soviet fighting men and tanks stood arrayed against each other, only yards apart. One mistake, one nervous soldier, one overzealous commander-and the tripwire would be sprung for a war that could go nuclear in a heartbeat.
On one side was a young, untested U.S. president still reeling from the Bay of Pigs disaster and a humiliating summit meeting that left him grasping for ways to respond. It would add up to be one of the worst first-year foreign policy performances of any modern president. On the other side, a Soviet premier hemmed in by the Chinese, East Germans, and hardliners in his own government. With an all-important Party Congress approaching, he knew Berlin meant the difference not only for the Kremlin's hold on its empire-but for his own hold on the Kremlin.
Neither man really understood the other, both tried cynically to manipulate events. And so, week by week, they crept closer to the brink.
Based on a wealth of new documents and interviews, filled with fresh-sometimes startling-insights, written with immediacy and drama, Berlin 1961 is an extraordinary look at key events of the twentieth century, with powerful applications to these early years of the twenty-first.

Christopher Andrew - The Sword and the Shield; The Mitrokhin Archive and the Secret History of the K GB (2000).epub

The Sword and the Shield is based on one of the most extraordinary intelligence coups of recent times: a secret archive of top-level KGB documents smuggled out of the Soviet Union which the FBI has described, after close examination, as the "most complete and extensive intelligence ever received from any source." Its presence in the West represents a catastrophic hemorrhage of the KGB’s secrets and reveals for the first time the full extent of its worldwide network.

Vasili Mitrokhin, a secret dissident who worked in the KGB archive, smuggled out copies of its most highly classified files every day for twelve years. In 1992, a U.S. ally succeeded in exfiltrating the KGB officer and his entire archive out of Moscow. The archive covers the entire period from the Bolshevik Revolution to the 1980s and includes revelations concerning almost every country in the world. But the KGB's main target, of course, was the United States.Though there is top-secret material on almost every country in the world, the United States is at the top of the list. As well as containing many fascinating revelations, this is a major contribution to the secret history of the twentieth century. Among the topics and revelations explored are: The KGB’s covert operations in the United States and throughout the West, some of which remain dangerous today. KGB files on Oswald and the JFK assassination that Boris Yeltsin almost certainly has no intention of showing President Clinton. The KGB’s attempts to discredit civil rights leader in the 1960s, including its infiltration of the inner circle of a key leader. The KGB’s use of radio intercept posts in New York and Washington, D.C., in the 1970s to intercept high-level U.S. government communications. The KGB’s attempts to steal technological secrets from major U.S. aerospace and technology corporations. KGB covert operations against former President Ronald Reagan, which began five years before he became president. KGB spies who successfully posed as U.S. citizens under a series of ingenious disguises, including several who attained access to the upper echelons of New York society.

Liao Yiwu - God Is Red; The Secret Story of How Ch ristianity Survived and Flourished in Communist Ch ina (2011).epub

When journalist Liao Yiwu first stumbled upon a vibrant Christian community in the officially secular China, he knew little about Christianity. In fact, he’d been taught that religion was evil, and that those who believed in it were deluded, cultists, or imperialist spies. But as a writer whose work has been banned in China and has even landed him in jail, Liao felt a kinship with Chinese Christians in their unwavering commitment to the freedom of expression and to finding meaning in a tumultuous society.

Unwilling to let his nation lose memory of its past or deny its present, Liao set out to document the untold stories of brave believers whose totalitarian government could not break their faith in God, including:

• The over-100-year-old nun who persevered in spite of beatings, famine, and decades of physical labor, and still fights for the rightful return of church land seized by the government
• The surgeon who gave up a lucrative Communist hospital administrator position to treat villagers for free in the remote, mountainous regions of southwestern China
• The Protestant minister, now memorialized in London’s Westminster Abbey, who was executed during the Cultural Revolution as “an incorrigible counterrevolutionary”

This ultimately triumphant tale of a vibrant church thriving against all odds serves as both a powerful conversation about politics and spirituality and a moving tribute to China’s valiant shepherds of faith, who prove that a totalitarian government cannot control what is in people’s hearts.

David Sears - Such Men as These; The Story of the Navy Pilots Who Flew the Deadly Skies over Korea ( 2011).epub

In 1951, James Michener went to Korea to report on a little-known aspect of America’s stalemated war: Navy aviators. His research-inspired, bestselling novel became perhaps the most widely read book ever written about aerial combat. Using Michener’s notes, author David Sears tracked down the actual pilots to tell their riveting true stories. The result, Such Men As These, brims with action-packed accounts of combat, from the icy, windswept decks of aircraft carriers to the treacherous skies over Korea, while providing unforgettable portraits of the pilots whose skill and sacrifice made epic history.

Rashid Khalidi - Sowing Crisis; The Cold War and A merican Dominance in the Middle East (2009).jpg

A lucid and provocative analysis of the legacy of the Cold War in the Middle East
During the 45 years of the Cold War, policymakers from the United States and the Soviet Union vied for primacy in the Middle East. Their motives, long held by historians to have had an ideological thrust, were, in fact, to gain control over access to oil and claim geographic and strategic advantage. In his new book, Rashid Khalidi, considered the foremost U.S. historian of the Middle East, makes the compelling case that the dynamics that played out during the Cold War continue to exert a profound influence even decades after the collapse of the Soviet Union.
The pattern of superpower intervention during the Cold War deeply affected and exacerbated regional and civil wars throughout the Middle East, and the carefully calculated maneuvers fueled by the fierce competition between the United States and the USSR actually provoked breakdowns in fragile democracies. To understand the momentous events that have occurred in the region over the last two decades-including two Gulf wars, the occupation of Iraq, and the rise of terrorism-we must, Khalidi argues, understand the crucial interplay of Cold War powers there from 1945 to 1990.
Today, the legacy of the Cold War continues in American policies and approaches to the Middle East that have shifted from a deadly struggle against communism to a War on Terror, and from opposing the Evil Empire to targeting the Axis of Evil. The current U.S. deadlock with Iran and the upsurge of American-Russian tensions in the wake of the conflict in Georgia point to the continued centrality of the Middle East in American strategic attention. Today, with a new administration in Washington, understanding and managing the full impact of this dangerous legacy in order to move America toward a more constructive and peaceful engagement in this critical arena is of the utmost importance.

Frank L. Britton - Za plecami komunizmu (1996).jpg

Książka amerykańskiego autora Franka L. Brittona Za plecami komunizmu , umożliwia poznanie genezy komunizmu oraz prześledzenie procesu jego tworzenia i rozwoju oraz ukazuje rzeczywistych inspiratorów i twórców tej ideologii . Zawiera nieznane dotychczas Czytelnikowi polskiemu fotografie , dokumenty i fakty . Książka Brittona w skondensowanej formie ukazuje losy Żydów w szerszym kontekście historii świata - na przestrzeni ostatnich dwóch tysięcy lat - od ich przybycia do Europy przed narodzeniem Chrystusa , poprzez Średniowiecze i Renesans do czasów współczesnych .

Ukazuje nieznaną dotychczas rolę Żydów w przygotowaniu i wywołaniu Rewolucji Październikowej oraz ich udział w propagowaniu , tworzeniu i utrwalaniu komunizmu najpierw w Rosji a następnie na całym świecie . Czytelnicy mają możliwość prześledzenia w porządku chronologicznym , jak stopniowo wdrażana w praktyce była doktryna komunistyczna , oraz tworzony aparat wykonawczy czerwonego terroru i zbrodni , przez kogo było konstruowane i jakim celom służyło " Imperium zła " . Przybliżenie nieznanych dokumentów i faktów , pozwala na lepsze zrozumienie istoty i celów ideologii komunistycznej . Ponieważ współcześnie ideologia komunistyczna nie została całkowicie wyeliminowana ze świadomości niektórych narodów , a nawet w niektórych krajach podejmowane są próby jej odbudowy , dlatego warto poznać bliżej rzeczywistych jej inspiratorów i twórców aby ostrzec następne pokolenia przed jej zgubnym wpływem .

Żeby zrozumieć istotę komunizmu należy prześledzić kierunek rozwoju tego ruchu oraz unaocznić kim byli jego inicjatorzy i jakie siły miały wpływ na ukształtowanie się tej ideologii . Niestety , każda poważna dyskusja na temat komunizmu i marksizmu łączy się z kwestią żydowską . Nie można uczciwie dyskutować na ten temat bez ujawnienia i stwierdzenia , że założycielami rosyjskiego komunizmu byli Żydzi . Nikt nie może ignorować faktu . że wszyscy czołowi przywódcy Amerykańskiej Partii Komunistycznej ( łącznie ze skazanymi za szpiegostwo ) pochodzili z tej samej rasy . To są fakty historyczne , na które nie mamy wpływu . Teraz stajemy przed poważnym problemem jak ujawnić te fakty i nie zostać oskarżonym i potraktowanym jako " antysemita " .

I właśnie z tego powodu wiadomo bardzo mało na temat prawdziwej natury komunizmu . Jest rzeczą zrozumiałą , że historycy niechętnie piszą na ten temat z obawy , aby nie otrzymać etykiety " rasisty " albo " fanatyka " . Z tego powodu temat ten usunięto poza ramy dyskusji i ze względu na cenzurę nikt nie używa razem wyrazów " Żyd " i " komunizm " . W tej książce zdecydowaliśmy się przełamać ten mur milczenia i potraktować temat w sposób uczciwy zgodnie z naszą wiedzą . Nie było zamiaru , żeby wybierać poszczególne osoby dlatego , że należą do pewnej rasy i nie traktowaliśmy ich zbyt krytycznie z tego samego powodu . Ponieważ komunizm i judaizm są związane ze sobą , więc zapoznanie się z historią Żydów przyczyni się do zrozumienia zagrożenia komunistycznego.

James Schefter - The Race; The Complete True Story of How America Beat Russia to the Moon (2000).jpg

In this New York Times bestseller, Pulitzer Prizewinning journalist Chris Hedges has written a shattering meditation on American obsession with celebrity and the epidemic of illiteracy that threatens our cultural integrity. Reporting on such phenomena as professional wrestling, the pornographic film industry, and unchecked casino capitalism, Hedges exposes the mechanisms used to divert us from confronting the economic, political, and moral collapse around us. Empire of Illusion shows us how illiteracy and the embrace of fantasy have impoverished our working class, allowed for the continuance of destructive public policy, and ushered in cultural bankruptcy.

Ian Bullock - Romancing the Revolution; The Myth o f Soviet Democracy and the British Left (2011).jpg

Over two decades have passed since the collapse of the USSR, yet the words "Soviet Union" still carry significant weight in the collective memory of millions. But how often do we consider the true meaning of the term "Soviet"? Drawing extensively on left-wing press archives, Romancing the Revolution traces the reactions of the British Left to the idealized concept of Soviet democracy. Focusing on the turbulent period after the 1917 Russian Revolution, author Ian Bullock examines the impact of the myth of Soviet democracy: the belief that Russia was embarking on a brave experiment in a form of popular government more genuine and advanced than even the best forms of parliamentarism. Romancing the Revolution uncovers the imprint of this myth on left-wing organizations and their publications.

Lennart Samuelson - Tankograd; The Formation of a Soviet Company Town, Cheliabinsk, 1900s-1950s (201 1).jpg

The once-closed town of Cheliabinsk in the Urals was nicknamed 'Tankograd' during World War Two. The dozens of new machine-building, metal and tractor factories established in the 1930s were swiftly prepared for conversion to arms production and Cheliabinsk became a major production site of the Soviet KV, IS and T-34 tanks. This book outlines a vast social, economic and political panorama that describes everyday life in a typical Soviet company town during the Stalin era. The socialist visions of the founders of the new cityscape in the early 1930s is contrasted with the dire conditions in the shanty townships on the outskirts of the city. The repression waves during the Great Terror 1937-8 are analyzed in their regional dimension, as well as the transformation of the historical memory after 1991.

J. R. McNeill, Corinna R. Unger - Environmental Hi stories of the Cold War (2010).jpg

Environmental Histories of the Cold War explores the links between the Cold War and the global environment, ranging from the environmental impacts of nuclear weapons to the political repercussions of environmentalism. Environmental change accelerated sharply during the Cold War years, and so did environmentalism as both a popular movement and a scientific preoccupation. Most Cold War history entirely overlooks this rise of environmentalism and the crescendo of environmental change. These historical subjects were not only simultaneous but also linked together in ways both straightforward and surprising. The contributors to this book present these connected issues as a global phenomenon, with chapters concerning China, the USSR, Europe, North America, Oceania, and elsewhere. The role of experts as agents and advocates of using the environment as a weapon in the Cold War or, contrastingly, of preventing environmental damage resulting from Cold War politics is also given broad attention.

Graeme Gill - Symbols and Legitimacy in Soviet Pol itics (2011).jpg

Symbols and Legitimacy in Soviet Politics analyses the way in which Soviet symbolism and ritual changed from the regime's birth in 1917 to its fall in 1991. Graeme Gill focuses on the symbolism in party policy and leaders' speeches, artwork and political posters, and urban redevelopment, and on ritual in the political system. He shows how this symbolism and ritual were worked into a dominant metanarrative which underpinned Soviet political development. Gill also shows how, in each of these spheres, the images changed both over the life of the regime and during particular stages: the Leninist era metanarrative differed from that of the Stalin period, which differed from that of the Khrushchev and Brezhnev periods, which was, in turn, changed significantly under Gorbachev. In charting this development, the book lays bare the dynamics of the Soviet regime and a major reason for its fall.
