	Richard Pipes - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		His son Daniel Pipes is a neoconservative scholar and specialist in Middle East history and affairs and a former appointee to the U.S. Institute of Peace.
		Pipes was a member of the Committee on Present Danger from 1977 until 1992 and serves on the Council of Foreign Relations.
		Pipes has argued that this "patrimonialism" of Imperial Russia started to break down when Russian leaders attempted to modernize in the 19th century without seeking however to change the basic "patrimonial" structure of Russian society.

	Harvard's Richard Pipes speaks about Russia's past and future (05/26/96)
		Pipes added "there is a universal pining for great-power status, be it among nationalists or democrats, Westernizers or Slavophiles," and the present appeal of the "red-brown" (Communist-neo-fascist) coalition is based on its promises to restore the glories of Soviet might.
		Pipes explained that Japan, a formerly highly militaristic, conservative nation, moved toward a totally pacifistic, democratic culture that, while corrupt, was still a far cry from its antecedent.
		Pipes said the events of late 1991 and early 1992 suggested to him that Russia was the brink of a dramatic transformation, but the democratic reform movement had failed abjectly in selling the Russian people on the ideas of representative democracy and the benefits of property and the rule of law.

		Richard Pipes, emeritus professor of Russian history at Harvard and author of Russia Under the Bolshevik Regime, is the principal editor of this first collection of secret Lenin papers published in English.
		Pipes' picture is all too real: Lenin was - and there are reasons for it : his brother's death for instance - a cynical, ruthless, aggressive agitator, who despised humanity and the workers to whom he told he was to create a paradise for them.
		Richard Pipes was in Ronald Reagan's administration, simple facts state that he is an old cold warrior.

		Richard Edgar Pipes was born in 1923 in the town of Cieszyn (Teschen) in Polish Silesia on the Czech border.
		Pipes saw Reagan "possessed to a high degree of the imponderable quality of political judgement to details of implementation he was indifferent, on matters of principle he was immovable".
		The one historian savaged as a determinist by Pipes is Edward Hallett Carr.

		He served as a consultant to Sen. Henry "Scoop" Jackson (aka "the senator from Boeing") in the early 1970s, was a member of the Committee on the Present Danger, and chaired the Team B Strategic Objectives Panel, a controversial effort in the mid-1970s to reinterpret CIA intelligence on the Soviet threat.

		Pipes: The threat of Islamism is quite different from that posed by the USSR -- both less menacing in that its adherents are much weaker, and more so in that they are fanatics with whom it is impossible to negotiate.
		Pipes: The predilection not only of academics but intellectuals in general for left-wing causes is a complicated matter that does not lend itself to quick analysis.
		Pipes: Trotsky was not the idealist that his admirers make him out to be, but I think he did not suffer from the kind of murderous paranoia that afflicted Stalin.

	FrontPage magazine.com :: Phyllis Chesler vs. Richard Pipes on Chechen Terror by FrontPage Magazine
		Pipes explains that the Chechen terrorists are not like al-Qaeda's terrorists because the Chechen goal is not world-wide domination; they only seek the "limited objective of independence." If Russia would simply appease them by granting them a sovereign Muslim state, all will be well.
		Pipes also minimizes the nature of the centuries-old criminality of the Chechen population, a group which, even he admits, did side with Hitler against Russia.

	Amazon.de: The Russian Revolution: English Books: Richard Pipes (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		Most of what the ideals of the Russian Revolution were based, was on intellectuals representing the peasants and workers claiming to have political representation in the political decisions of the country, beginning with the 'zemtsvo' and conluding in the revolutions of 1905 and of February 1917.
		As Pipes argues, when the Bolsheviks conquered power, they destroyed all the ideals of the revolution since they triumphed by a coup d'etat and not by a genuine revolution as it took place in 1905 and in February of 1917.
		Pipes' book should be read by every person interested in history who is not afraid to be shown that ideas have consequences, and that these are often inexcusably horrible.

		Pipes became a specialist in Russian history, serving as a professor for nearly 40 years, during which time he earned a reputation as a "cold warrior" who sharply criticized the policy of d‚tente with the Soviet Union, a country he compared to Nazi Germany.
		Pipes is as alive and intellectually vigorous at 80 as he seems to have been in his youth and his autobiography is a pleasure to read to the last page.
		Pipes is indeed a wise man. Finally, I see no reason for attacking Dr. Pipes and/or his son Daniel as "uptight," "fanatics," or "crazy." These are personal attacks completely outside the scope of the book.

	Notes on Richard Pipes
		Richard Pipes, Baird Professor of History, Emeritus, at Harvard University, is the author of numerous books and essays, including The Russian Revolution, Russia Under the Bolshevik Regime, and Property and Freedom.

		Richard Pipes offers a vigorous defense of a fundamental freedom--private property--in this engaging mix of history, economics, and political theory.
		Pipes argues that a greater appreciation for this institution is necessary if liberty is to survive in the 21st century.
		While Pipes begrudgingly concedes that the reformist demands of various social movements have placed valuable checks on the unfettered accumulation of property, his message is most clear when he states human beings must have in order to be.

	BrothersJudd.com - Review of Richard Pipes's Vixi: Memoirs of a Non-Belonger
		Pipes turns out to have a sly sense of humor and because we see how a series of what are little more than coincidences led him into the field of Sovietology, where he became quite probably the most perceptive observer/critic of the Soviet Union at least within the professoriate.
		Pipes was something of a fish out of water as a conservative anti-communist Sovietologist, so too was he somewhat out of his depth as an academic in the political bureaucratic morass of government.
		Pipes was able to not just advocate a hard-line but to push it through channels in a way he might not have otherwise.

	Collected Miscellany - Communism: A History by Richard Pipes
		Richard Pipes' Modern Library Chronicles' volume Communism: A History is a blessing to those who would like to explore a rich subject but simply do not have the time to delve into the larger academic tomes.
		Pipes rightfully points out that the historical record shows that any attempt to end private ownership is bound to fail because, contra communist doctrine, it "is not a transient phenomenon but a permanent feature of social life and as such indestructible." This fundamental incongruity forces on communism a dictatorial form.
		Pipes makes a number of additional insights in the course of his history but I will let you discover them for yourself.

		A likelier candidate might be Richard Pipes, the eminent historian of Russia who two decades ago interrupted a thriving career as a Harvard professor to help the Reagan administration articulate an assertive foreign policy that strikingly prefigured the "Bush doctrine" of today.
		Pipes and his allies at the NSC and the Pentagon, who wanted to roll back communism, clashed with Foggy Bottom diplomats sold on "appeasement." "Whenever we went to the State Department, we always felt we were entering enemy territory," Pipes says.
		It is not lost on Pipes that his criticism goes directly to the judgment of the Bush team, conservatives like himself, in some cases former colleagues, most prominently Team B's own Wolfowitz.

		Pipes came to America in 1939 as a sixteen-year-old refugee from Poland.
		Nevertheless, Pipes's appointment (thanks to Richard V. Allen, head of the National Security Council and himself a leading anti-Soviet strategist) was felicitous: a president who believed that the Soviet Union was not here to stay, a national-security chief who shared that view, and a Polish-American intellectual who agreed wholeheartedly.
		One thing is clear from "Vixi": Pipes simply didn't or wouldn't understand the principles of a town where a bureau chief frequently has more power than his cabinet-secretary superior.

		Throughout, I think Pipes did a good job of balancing the big picture with the details that are necessary to understand what was happening in such a large country at the time.
		Suddenly the objective writing style becomes full of venom for the "intelligentsia." Pipes' contempt is a constant theme throughout the remainder of the book, to the point where I wasn't sure how much I could trust some of his observations.
