SoSe 22: Socialist Internationalism in History
Timothy Nunan
Kommentar
Talk of “socialism” is everywhere these days, between a democratic socialist revival in the United States and United Kingdom and the right-wing fixation on Venezuela as a bugaboo for socialism. These discussions tend to overlook, however, the powerful impact that Marxist- Leninist regimes had on the making of the modern world. Socialist internationalism spread Soviet-style single-party states around the world from Cuba to China. Notions of solidarity also prompted Soviet and Chinese interventions during the Cold War, leaving lasting legacies in countries like Afghanistan and North Korea today. In short, socialism constituted its own kind of globalization, an understanding of which is essential to understanding the world today. In this course, we will examine how socialist states such as the Soviet Union and the People’s Republic of China contributed to the ideological and material spread of communism around the world in the twentieth century. Themes covered will include planned economies and their place in the international political economy; attempts to reshape gender roles; and socialist culture and the intelligentsia. Schließen
