Henry Kissinger Was a Politician of the International Realism

Many different words can be said about the late statesman — both good and evil, fair and biased. Kissinger activities can be considered from a variety of points of view — from the position of abstract humanism, the global claims of Euro-Atlanticism, and finally, based on the postulates of his favorite international realism. But in […]

What is Terrorism?

Before writing the articles on political trials in the Russian Empire and use of administrative orders and extraordinary laws to crush opposition, I must explain my methodology—how I research and write about different subjects in history. Most important is how I define terrorism. In this series we are looking at the how the Russian Empire […]

Who Was After All Mr. Kissinger?

Henry Kissinger died at the enviable age of 100 at his home in Kent, Connecticut. Until his last breath he was active, wise and significant. Back in July, Xi Jinping himself received him as a guest of honor in Beijing. He met regularly with Joe Biden, as well as with 11 previous US presidents. None […]

Political Crimes in the Russian Empire

Political trials in the Russian Empire turned into battlegrounds between the government and educated society as represented by the political parties and movements. Socialist defendants and their liberal defense lawyers joined combat with prosecutors determined to present the revolutionaries as monsters seeking to destroy Russia. Defendants accused the government of committing crimes against the people […]

Murders — it’s an Everyday Matter

The deaths of civilians in Gaza — random but numerous victims of war — are sad and terrible. Two unfortunate peoples who found themselves on the same territory and unable to reconcile are an open wound. Eighteen centuries after the expulsion, the Jews wandered, were despised, and again expelled from everywhere. The Holocaust, when some […]

“If Only There Was No War”

About the expulsion of the Palestinians in 1948, I read a lot of materials from both sides, probably a whole library. The exile symbol was the massacre in Deir Yassin, and I think that Israeli nationalists then greatly damaged something in the basis of the idea, the dream of re-establishing Israel. As for the idea […]

The Russian authorities intend to create mechanical engineering for microelectronics in the country virtually from scratch by 2027, developing equipment for all cycles of semiconductor production. The cost of the project is estimated at more than 100 billion rubles. Compared to the investments of global industry players, the figures look modest: the world’s leading manufacturer […]

Russian Civil War of 1993

I previously read the book by Sergei Shargunov, which formed the basis of the film. The book is larger and deeper, which is only natural. The film itself was shot professionally and conscientiously. Of course, this is not a document, although some shots almost document the chronicle. The main advantage of the film: this is […]

Time for a Bloody Reckoning for Political Blindness

The political blindness of the communists resulted in the fact that Ukrainian nationalism was formed on the basis of Russian nationalism, which fell on fertilized soil by Austrian and German nationalists. Thomas Venclova expressed a fairly sensible idea: “Many in the Baltic countries and throughout Eastern Europe consider Russian nationalism to be an absolute evil, […]

Naughty Children: Nuisance or Blessing

Once in a while, every parent, to one degree or another, faces the disobedience of their child. In France in the 60s, even a kid named Nicolas was popular — a character in children’s illustrated books, on which more than one generation of French grew up. He is curious and restless, mischievous but a dreamer, […]
