| Summary/Abstract |
THE DIPLOMATIC AND POLITICAL SCANDAL that burst out between Russia and Estonia early in 2006 over the future of the military burials of World War II (the Great Patriotic War) times supplied another confirmation of our persisting internal inability to enter into a dialogue if it is needed to counter the opponent's demagoguery with well-substantiated historical arguments to confirm Russia's status as the legal heir of the Soviet Union and the Russian Empire. ... We should not waste time by reminding the Estonian and Latvian anti-communists that we "saved them from Nazism" - this would amount to talking Italian to a German or Serbian to a Frenchman

| Summary/Abstract |
BADLY SCARRED by World War I, Western Europe will always feel less anguish over World War II than Russia and the Russians over the Great Patriotic War.
Only two states - the Soviet Union and the German Reich - paid all the bills of World War II which caused disastrous destruction at the Eastern Front and strained human potential to the utmost. For various reasons, Europe offered disjointed resistance to the fascist onslaught: none of the states of continental Europe could, or was willing, to measure swords with Berlin.

| Summary/Abstract |
IN THE LATTER HALF of the 1940s, due to Japan's defeat in World War the political landscape in the Far East significantly changed the balance of forces seeking political domination in this part of the world.
Leaders of all democratic victor nations, simultaneously but for different reasons, shifted their support from Chiang Kai-shek and his government of "reactionary" Nationalists to "progressive" Chinese Communists.

| Summary/Abstract |
ONE WANTS TO KNOW how did mutual intolerance of the ruling circles and so-called public opinion of Russia and the United States begin? When and how did rivalry and even enmity of two countries replace their fairly close relations of the past? ... Who is to Blame? ... IT IS COMMONLY BELIEVED that Winston Churchill (an Anglo-Sax but not an American at all) started the cold period of world rivalry in Fulton. His speech, however, did not mean that what had begun as a "cold period" would develop into 40-year-long confrontation between two nuclear powers

| Summary/Abstract |
EAST ASIA moved into economic limelight as soon as the Soviet Union left the scene. By 1993, Japanese banks had accumulated half of the assets of the world's 500 largest banks; it even looked, at least to some of the experts, that New York lost its old role of an arbiter and manager of the financial markets.
