The Political Thought of Joseph Stalin: A Study in Twentieth Century Revolutionary Patriotism
8vo, br, ed. 388pp. This book presents a comprehensive analysis of the political thought of Joseph Stalin. Making full use of the documentation that has recently become available, including Stalin's private library with his handwritten margin notes, the book provides many insights on Stalin, and also on western and Russian Marxist intellectual traditions. Overall, the book argues that Stalin's political thought is not primarily indebted to the Russian autocratic tradition, but belongs to a tradition of revolutionary patriotism that stretches back through revolutionary Marxism to Jacobin thought in the French Revolution. It makes interesting comparisons between Stalin, Lenin, Bukharin and Trotsky, and explains a great deal about the mindset of those brought up in the Stalinist era, and about the era's many key problems, including the industrial revolution from above, socialist cultural policy, Soviet treatment of nationalities, pre-war and Cold War foreign policy, and the purges.

VAN WONZEL
Stato presente della Russia del dottore Van Wonzel. Istruzione data da Caterina II imper. di tutte le Russie per un nuovo codice di leggi scritta dalla imperatrice stessa. saggio per dare un'idea della forma del governo di Russia. Tomo I (-II)
2 voll. in 16 rilegati in un tomo, pp. VIII + 308 con bella tav. all'antip. inc. all'acq. raff. l'imperatrice Caterina; 299. Le ultime 2 carte del I tomo presentano fori e tagli con lesione del testo. Il frontespizio del II tomo che segue presenta fori al marg. interno cosi' come le 4 carte seguenti che pero' non presentano compromissione del testo dal momento che le abrasioni toccano il margine interno bianco. Legatura in mz. pl. coeva con qualche danno nella parte superiore e inferiore del dorso. Opera in buono stato di conservazione, molto fresca, nonostante i difetti segnalati. Traduzione italiana dall'opera francese Etat present de la Russe (Leipzig, 1783) che si prefigge - come si legge nella prefazione del II volume - 'di rendere comune all'Italia cio' che lo era ai solo intelligenti di Lingue oltramontane... e d'illustrare la Russa Imperatrice...'. La traduzione italiana non e' datata ma la data si desume dalla licenza di stampa a p. VIII. Nel testo si procede ad una ricognizione storico-geografico-giuridica dello stato russo. Nella prima parte, infatti, sono analizzati: clima, miniere, governo, nobilta', corte, palazzo d'inverno, la biblioteca ed il museo di curiosita' naturali, lo stato delle scienze, la teologia, la giurisprudenza, la finanza, i commerci, ecc... Inoltre: Istruzione data da Caterina II alla commissione stabilita per formar la compilazione di un nuovo codice di leggi. Nel secondo volume: Regolamento sopra la forma e la maniera di procedere della Commissione stabilita per versare sopra il progetto di un un nuovo codice di leggi; Sbozzo per dare un'idea della forma di governo dell'impero russo; Saggio sopra le forme di governo e sopra i doveri de' sovrani. Opera del re Federico II di Prussia; Estratto del capitolo del governo nel prospetto dell'Europa dell'abate Raynal. 'Dr. Van Wonzel has been six years physician to the corps od Cadets in Russia. The Author delivers many original observations; he speaks with freedom and not always to the advantage of Russia' (The Monthly Rewiev, LXX, 1784, p. 320).

Varga, Eugen (Eugen Samuilovich Varga)
Osnovnye voprosy ekonomiki i politiki imperializma (posle Vtoroi Mirovoi voiny)
Octavo in brown cloth ; 575 p. 23 cm. Errata slip at rear. In Russian. Uncommon. || "Eugen Samuilovich Varga (November 6, 1879, Budapest ñ October 7, 1964, Moscow) was a Marxist economist of Hungarian origin. He studied philosophy and economic geography at the University of Budapest. In 1906, he started writing in socialist and academic journals, mainly on economic subjects, but also on other topics. Before World War I he gained some fame by discussing with Otto Bauer about the origins of inflation in the Austro-Hungarian Empire. In this period he belonged to the Marxist Centrists, of whom Karl Kautsky and Rudolf Hilferding were the most prominent spokesmen. He participated as minister of finance in the short-lived Hungarian Soviet Republic of 1919. After the overthrow of the Soviet Republic he fled to Vienna. In 1920 he went to the Soviet Union, where he started working for the Comintern, specializing in international economic problems and agrarian questions. In years 1922-1927 he was working at the department of trade in the Soviet embassy in Berlin. In the 1930s he became an economic adviser to Joseph Stalin. He survived the purges of the 1930s. During World War II he advised the Soviet Government in matters of post-war reparations. He attended the Potsdam Conference of 1945 as an expert. Like most of his compatriots living and working in Moscow, he joined the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, but he also remained active in the Hungarian Communist Party. He authored the economic reports the congresses of the Comintern discussed between 1921 and 1935. A large number of his writings were studies of the international economic conjuncture, in which he made great effort to assess quantitative trends in output, investment and employment using official economic data from numerous countries. He also extensively studied German imperialism. In 1946 he published The Economic Transformation of Capitalism at the End of the Second World War, in which he argued that the capitalist system was more inherently stable than had been hitherto believed. This led to the closure of the Institute which he headed. (See: Paolo Spriano, Stalin and the European Communists. London: Verso, 1985). Finally, in 1949 he would make his self-criticism. Though he remained a leading academic economist, his prestige had diminished. In the second edition of the Great Soviet Encyclopedia he was qualified as a "bourgeois economist". After Stalin's death in 1953, he reappeared on the scene, but the new men in power in the Kremlin believing in the virtues of peaceful co-existence were not interested in Varga's predictions of the outbreak of a "necessary" economic crisis in the United States. In 1954 and 1959 he received the Lenin Orders, in 1954 he obtained a Stalin Prize and in 1963 a Lenin Prize. After his death, his selected works in three volumes were published in the Soviet Union, Hungary, and East Germany. Varga never returned to living in his native Hungary. Because he was very close to M·ty·s R·kosi, he was several times invited as an economic advisor to Hungary. In this period (1945-1950) he had specialized in economic planning, pricing and monetary reforms, i.e. reforms the Hungarian Communists now in power were carrying out. After the fall of R·kosi caused by the Hungarian Revolution of 1956 and the take-over by the K·d·r team, Varga's advisory work was not appreciated anymore." -- Wikipedia. || World politics -- 1945- Imperialism.
