	PMag v03n1p27 -- Eurocommunism: Showing a Human Face to Both Blocs
		Eurocommunism represents a challenge to the militaristic governments of both blocs, with a dynamic that opposes both the advances of military technology in the West and abuses of human rights in the East.
		Eurocommunism offers an important breakaway from the terms of "anti-Communism" and "Communism" which are used in both blocs to attack peace and social justice activists in their societies.
		Eurocommunism's coming of age in its defence of Solidarity, came at the height of protests in Europe against the deployment of the cruise and Pershing missiles.

	Eurocommunism: a new form of reformism [Sam Marcy -- 1978]: The Significance of Eurocommunism
		Eurocommunism is the logical culmination of a long historical process which after a period of time became inevitable.
		Eurocommunism is wholly in line with the perspective of American imperialism in its struggle against the USSR.
		Eurocommunism, however, while it raises enormous problems for the working class in the struggle against the bourgeoisie, is not the formidable weapon, is not the great realization of their dream that the liberal arm of the imperialist establishment in the U.S. believes it is.

		Eurocommunism was an attempt in the 1970s by various Western European communist parties to develop a theory and practice of social transformation that was more relevant in a Western European democracy.
		Eurocommunism became a force across Europe in 1977, when Enrico Berlinguer of the Italian Communist Party (PCI), Santiago Carrillo of the Communist Party of Spain (PCE) and Georges Marchais of the French Communist Party (PCF) met in Madrid and laid out the fundamental lines of the "new way".
		More generally, from the point of view of most revolutionary left-wing movements, Eurocommunism simply meant an abandonment of basic communist principles, such as the call for a proletarian revolution, which eventually led many Eurocommunists to abandon communism or even socialism altogether (by giving up their commitment to overthrow capitalism).

	Eurocommunism & the Soviet Union
		The emergence of Eurocommunism led to elaborate KGB plans to discredit some of its leaders, such as the Italian Enrico Berlinguer and the Spanish communist Santiago Carillo.
		Berlinguer, who became PCI general secretary in 1972, launched the notion of a "historic compromise" between the PCI, the Socialists and the Christian Democrats in 1973 after the Chile coup.
		In 1977, Gallego forwarded galley proofs of Carrillo’s forthcoming book Eurocommunism and the State as well as a draft declaration to be made by the PCE, PCI and French CP.

	Eurocommunism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The PCE and its Catalan referent, the United Socialist Party of Catalonia, had already been committed to the liberal possibilist politics of the Popular Front during the Spanish Civil War.
		Prominent parties influenced by it outside of Europe were the Movement for Socialism (Venezuela), the Japanese Communist Party, the Mexican Communist Party and the Communist Party of Australia.
		The compromesso storico ("historic compromise") with Democrazia Cristiana, stopped by Aldo Moro's murder in 1978, was a consequence of this new policy.

	A Specter Is Haunting Eurocommunism
		On closer scrutiny, they also suggested that the vagaries of the European left and the setback of Eurocommunism may both be temporary byproducts of the economic crisis.
		Eurocommunism may one day be described as the late offspring of the great Western postwar boom, the quarter of a century of unparalleled prosperity, when capitalism seemed to have discovered the secret of eternal youth.
		Had it been wise, it would have encouraged, instead of sabotaging, the earlier phase of Eurocommunism, which was destined to integrate the Communist parties into the system.

	The Italian Communist Party: Social Democrats or Trojan Horse?
		The PCI, along with the French, Spanish, and sometimes the Portuguese and English Communist Parties, is part of what is often called "Eurocommunism," a distinc tively West European version of Communism that is allegedly committed to political democracy and the Atlantic Alliance and independent of indeed, often hostile to) the Soviet Union.
		This view of Eurocommunism has been challenged in recent months by warnings from former Secretary of State Henry Kissinger, historian Arthur Schlesinger,4 former Secretary of State George W. and former Secretary General of the Communist Party, U.S.A. Jay Lovestone.
		A survey of the history and organization of the PCI may help to clarify this controversy, and,a careful examina tion of their public rhetoric and policy statements should lead to ward a resolution THE PCI: HISTORY AND ORGANIZATION The PCI was founded in 1921 as the result of a split in the Italian Socialist Party.

	The Voice of the Turtle
		In response to the 1979 "year of Eurocommunism", Albanian leader Enver Hoxha published this long pamphlet analysing its lineages.
		He presents Eurocommunism in France, Spain and Italy as being a fairly uncomplicated development from the revisionist currents in these countries that date back to the 1930s (popular fronts, and all that).
		His verdict is both predictable and damning: "Eurocommunism is a variant of modern revisionism, a hotch-potch of pseudo-theories opposed to Marxism-Leninism.

	Chapter Three Eurocommunism. (108)
		The rise of Eurocommunism confirms the validity of the thesis put forward in these chapters, which is that, one after another, these basic tenets are being abandoned by European communists disenchanted with the performance of communist parties in power in various countries of the world.
		In fact, the notion of dictatorship of the proletariat was one of the main points of contention between them and what can be termed the official communist parties in the Soviet Union and its satellite countries, which adhere closely to orthodox Marxist views on this and other questions.
		Santiago Carillo devoted the longest chapter in “Eurocommunism” and the State" to the concept of dictatorship of the proletariat.

		While there has been general agreement that Eurocommunism is an important and significant phenomenon, there has been less of a consensus about what it represents.
		The Politics of Eurocommunism attempts to set this debate on a former footing by bringing together major new contributions on all aspects of the Eurocommunists phenomenon by socialist scholars and activists of various persuasions from Spain, Italy, France, and the United States.
		A concluding section reviews the historical significance of Eurocommunism and assesses its prospects in the 1980s.

	John Derbyshire on Iraq on National Review Online
		It all came to nothing in the end, but while it lasted the Eurocommunism phenomenon illustrated an irresistible tendency in the political life of democracies: the endless search for a middle path between perceived extremes, for a Third Way.
		A typical pronouncement from an apostle of Eurocommunism was the remark by the lefty British historian E.
		Thompson, circa 1980, that he was "bored with totalitarians and anti-totalitarians both." (Which, I commented at the time, reminded me of that newly elected mayor of an American city who, in his inauguration speech, promised to tread the fine line between honesty and corruption.)

		Cartoon by Behrendt on Eurocommunism (28 May 1979)
		The Italian style of Eurocommunism, a title which emphasised its distance from Moscow, did not go down well with the more orthodox line of other European Communist parties who had yet to assert their independence from the political interests of the USSR.
		Although their position has become more ambiguous over the years, the Communist parties are still, on the whole, hostile to the European Community which they consider to be a capitalist instrument.
