  • The First Serbian Uprising (1804-1813) and the Nineteenth-Century Origins of the Eastern Question

  • Lawrence P. Meriage

  • Throughout the nineteenth century a major international issue facing the Great Powers of Europe was the volatile “Eastern Question.” As the Ottoman Empire grew steadily weaker, the question of the future disposition of its extensive territories (some 238,000 square miles in Europe alone in 1800) provoked an intense and prolonged rivalry among those European states with vested political and economic interests in the Near East. With its military power in decline and its frontiers menaced by powerful neighbors, the Ottoman Empire seemed on the verge of collapse at the beginning of the nineteenth century despite its imposing imperial edifice.

  • Institutional Change in the 1970s: The Case of the USSR People's Control Committee

  • In the continuing debate among Western students of Soviet affairs about the direction in which the Soviet political system is moving, all participants agree that accurate analysis is imperative. How one interprets the evidence of change determines one's view of current Soviet reality and one's perception of the opportunities and threats involved in U.S.-Soviet relations. This crucial issue is addressed in the following pages by examining the current situation of an important, evolving institution, the USSR People's Control Committee (Komitet narodnogo kontrolia, or KNK). To a remarkable degree this organization, in its twelfth year of existence, demonstrates the continuing process of de-Stalinization in the Soviet polity.

  • The Rural Origins of the Communist and Nationalist Movements in Wolyn Województwo, 1921-1939

  • Alexander J. Motyl

  • When two diametrically opposed revolutionary movements gain the support of the peasantry of a given population, it is logical to ask whether this support came from all peasant strata equally or from one in particular. This question is especially relevant to the eastern Polish województwo of Wołyń in the 1930s. Overwhelmingly populated by Ukrainian peasants, the rural areas of Wołyń województwo were strongly influenced by both Ukrainian Communists (represented by the Communist Party of Western Ukraine, Komunistychna Partita Zakhidnoi Ukrainy, or KPZU) and Ukrainian Nationalists (represented by the Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists, Orhanizatsiia Ukrains'kykh Natsionalistiv, or OUN).

  • “You have a book in you,” said Charents, listening to M.'s poems about Armenia. (This was in Tiflis—in Erivan he would not have dared to come see us.) M. was very pleased by these words: “Perhaps he's right—I may really have a book in me.” A few years later, at M.'s request, I took a sheaf of his Voronezh poems to Pasternak, who, after looking at them, suddenly spoke of the “miracle of a book in the making.” With him, he said, it had happened only once in his life, when he wrote “My Sister Life.” I told M. about this conversation and asked: “So a collection of verse doesn't always make a book?” M. just laughed.“
