	Democratic Centralism (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		Democratic centralism is one of the most abused and misunderstood terms in the Marxist vocabulary.
		The great breakthrough that Lenin made in Marxist theory and party organisation was not democratic centralism but rather an understanding of the need for revolutionaries to form their own distinct party separate from the reformist elements of the working class movement.
		Inside the Bolshevik party internal debate was vital for assessing the policies, strategies and tactics being argued to the mass of workers.

	COMMUNIST PARTY OF THE SOVIET UNION FACTS AND INFORMATION (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		The Communist Party of the Soviet_Union (Russian: ''ÐÐ¾Ð¼Ð¼ÑÐ½Ð¸ÑÑÐ¸ÌÑÐµÑÐºÐ°Ñ ÐÐ°ÌÑÑÐ¸Ñ Ð¡Ð¾Ð²ÐµÌÑÑÐºÐ¾Ð³Ð¾ Ð¡Ð¾ÑÌÐ·Ð°'' = ''ÐÐÐ¡Ð¡'') was the name used by the successors of the Bolshevik faction of the Russian_Social_Democratic_Labour_Party from 1952 to 1991, but the wording Communist Party was present in the party's name since 1918 when the Bolsheviks became the ''All-Russian Communist Party (Bolsheviks)''.
		In theory, supreme power in the party was invested in the Party Congress, however, in practice the power structure became reversed and, particularly after the death of Lenin, supreme power became the domain of the General Secretary.
		This was both an attempt to "proletarianize" the party and an attempt by Stalin to strengthen his base by outnumbering the Old_Bolsheviks and reducing their influence in the party.

	The Latvian Institute
		Latvian newspapers awaited the new century in fear of a world war and also with hope that the new century may bring the world eternal peace and society may be freed of its great inherent contradictions.
		The constant constrictions of civic rights and freedoms in Russia, the unresolved agrarian issue, the privileges of the landed gentry and attempts to Russify the Latvians were all causes that led to dissatisfaction among the Latvians with the social and political situation.
		By 1959 all disobedient Latvian national communists, including their most prominent representative, Deputy Chairman of the Council of Ministers Eduards Berklavs (born 1914), were purged from the ranking positions in the party.

	A reply to a reader on the Vaxholm builders' dispute in Sweden
		Latvian workers, on the other hand, haven’t struggled for better wages and conditions and have no right to profit from the struggles of past generations of Swedish workers by working in Sweden for better wages than they would get at home.
		Social democrats worldwide have abandoned any defence of living standards and have rapidly evolved into warmongering parties of the super rich.
		In answer to your slander that Latvian workers have not struggled, and therefore “have no right to profit” from past trade union struggles in Sweden, it should be noted that Latvia and other east European states were an arena in which the great events of the twentieth century were fought out.

		The parties later insisted they had patched up their differences, though commentators widely predicted it was only a matter of time before underlying friction again rose to the fore.
		Both parties have said they are open for talks with Repse's New Era as long as he is not a candidate for the premiership, but analysts said the proposal was full of stumbling blocks as New Era says any partner must agree to a long list of demands.
		Latvians counter that they are meant to help integrate minorities, adding that those who don't learn Latvian will find it hard to secure good jobs.

	Latvia and democracy in spectrezine
		There are no formal impediments to obtaining Latvian nationality other than the requirement to learn the Latvian language and pass a very demanding examination in that language as well as a history examination.
		It is unfeasible (and absurd) for non-native speakers of Latvian to study Russian, English or German, and the relevant literature, in Latvian alone.
		This will help to improve knowledge of Latvian among the children of the national minorities, will ease the process of social integration, will not be detrimental to the students’ education and will improve their employment prospects while promoting patriotism and citizenship.

		As in previous elections, several sitting parties were not able to get past the threshold of 5 percent of the vote and so will not be represented in the new parliament, most significantly Latvia’s Way and the Social Democrats.

		The Farmers Union is one of Latvian’s oldest traditional parties, now recovered from its years in the wilderness, but how it performs in tandem with the Greens remains to be seen.
