Was the October Revolution a coup or a peoples revolution? Was Lenin a shrewed conspirator or the leader of millions of Russian workers and peasants? Was the Soviet Republic a setback or a leap forward for humanity? In this event, hosted by, London Union Marxist Society Alan Woods (editor of www.marxist.com and author of "Bolshevism: the Road to Revolution") and Orlando Figes (Professor of History at Birkbeck University and author of "A People's Tragedy") debate the true nature of the Russian Revolution, and what it meant for the people of Russia and the class struggle internationally. The event was hosted by: Marxist Student Federation - www.marxiststudent.com Socialist Appeal - www.socialist.net In Defence of Marxism - www.marxist.com

Życie w stalinowskiej Rosji Orlando Figes Głośna książka autora Tańca NataszyiPoślij chociaż słowo. W Szeptach Orlando Figes opisuje historie ludzi, którzy żyli w czasach dyktatury stalinowskiej. Są wśród nich także znane postaci: Anna Achmatowa, Jelena Bonner, Bułat Okudżawa, Konstantin Simonow... Korzystając z setek rodzinnych archiwów, a także niezliczonych wywiadów, autor odtwarza tamten świat dramatycznych moralnych wyborów i kompromisów. Świat, w którym ludzie mówili szeptem, aby ochronić siebie, rodzinę lub przyjaciół, a życie prywatne w warunkach totalnej kontroli państwa wydawało się niemożliwe.

1992 - Bosnië en "De Waarheid"

Order: Reorder
Duration: 70:51
Updated: 10 Nov 2013

De Bosnisch-Servische journalist Goran Trkulja ontvluchtte in 1992 de oorlog in Joegoslavië. Werken in zijn vak was er levensgevaarlijk geworden. Hij kreeg asiel in Nederland. Nu, 17 jaar later, onderneemt hij een reis langs zijn voormalige collega's. Hij heeft een lijst met louter pijnlijke vragen. Waarom bleven ze doorwerken ? Probeerden ze serieus te weten te komen wat van belang is ? En schreven ze dat ook op ? Durfden ze dat, konden ze dat ? Kwamen ze daarbij ook maar in de buurt van de waarheid ? Over journalistiek als eerstelijns-geschiedschrijving. Met die eeuwig terugkerende vraag: Bestaat er zoiets als de absolute waarheid ? Geert Mak en Goran Trkulja reizen gezamenlijk terug naar Nederland. Peinzend over de eeuw die achter ons ligt en de rol van de geschiedenis daarin, zakken ze de Rijn af naar de haven van Rotterdam. Daar wachten twee bekenden uit de serie Geert Mak op: Stalinkenner Orlando Figes en Jörg Friedrich, die een nieuwe, controversiële visie gaf op de geallieerde bombardementen op Duitsland. Aan hen de vraag : als iets geschiedenis is geworden, is het daarmee dan ook de waarheid ?
