Soviet Affairs
1: Foreign Policy
(I) Socialism in One Country by P. H. VIGOR
Marx thought that revolution would break out in all the advanced countries, but after the Bolshevik Revolution of 1917 the Soviet Union found herself alone and surrounded by hostile capitalist powers. Lenin saw the need for world revolution as a matter of immense practical importance, but his ideas were opposed by Stahn. who put forward the theory of ' Socialism in One Country.' In the course of nine talks Mr. Vigor outlines some of the principal theories underlying Soviet practice in foreign affairs and industry.

1: Public Philosophies by MARY DOUGLAS
Reader in Social Anthropology, University College, London
What is thinking like in a primitive culture? In particular, what leads people to the magical system of thought, as opposed to the scientific? How much truth is there in the view of early anthropologists. that primitive thinkers think as they do because they have minds more childish titan our own and personality structures less complex? Mary Douglas looks for the key to this problem in the relation between thought and its social matrix.
