Józef Mackiewicz, known for his relentless opposition to Communism, argues that accommodation with the Communists simply helped them to impose their vision of the world and pursue their goal of global domination. He compares Communism to Nazism and insists that the former was the greater threat to the future of humanity. Now available in English for the first time, The Triumph of Provocation will be compelling reading for those interested in Polish history, Communism, and Nazism.Mackiewicz's unique interpretation of the differences and similarities between Communism and Nazism is highly relevant to debates about these two systems and to major contemporary issues which are of particular importance to the U.S. and Europe, including radical Islam and the necessity of war and the responsibility for war.CommunismPolandPolandRelationsSoviet UnionSoviet UnionRelationsPolandPolandPolitics and government1945-1980Communism327.438047Mackiewicz Józef693555MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910780643203321The triumph of provocation3733293UNINA
