The Personal File of Jin Richeng (Kim Il-sung): New Information on the Early Years of the First Ruler of North Korea
Acta Koreana. 2019. Vol. 22. No. 1. P. 111–128.
Tertitski Konstantin, Tertitskiy F.
This article studies an important period 1929-1931 in the life of Kim Il-sung (C. Jin Richeng), the first leader of North Korea, through an analysis of his previously unknown personal file written by officials of the Communist International in the Soviet Union in 1941 after Kim had escaped to the USSR from Manchukuo. It is possibly the first biography of Kim Il-sung ever written. The document sheds new light on some aspects of Kim's early life, including his arrest in 1929, his service in the Chinese People's National Salvation Army, and the events surrounding his admission into the Chinese Communist Party. On the basis of this file and other documents of the era, such as diaries of Kim's superior Zhou Baozhong and Comintern chief Dimitrov, this paper presents an account of Kim Il-sung's life and career in the late 1920s - early 1930s and reveals the distortions of the official North Korean biography of Kim Il-sung in service to the ideological goals of the state.

This Handbook examines relations between Japan and Korea from 1850 to the present.
Analyzing almost 200 years of Japan and Korea relations uncovers a relationship that has been both congenial and confrontational. This Handbook examines these relations in this age of modernity by dividing it into four periods: precolonial relations (1850–1905); colonial rule (1905–1945); post-war/post-liberation (1945–1965); ...

Among the Roman pontiffs who proclaimed crusades against the Turks, Pius II (1458-1464) stands out for having publicly declared his intention to go to war and backed it up with concrete actions. His death in Ancona, from where he was about to set sail for the East, can be perceived as a feat of faith ...

Статья посвящена исследованию маскарадов как социального и культурного феномена в эпоху правления Николая I. Автор рассматривает маскарады не только как развлекательные мероприятия, но и как сложные ритуалы, совмещающие властные сценарии, гендерные роли, социальные иерархии и индивидуальные характеры. Основное внимание уделяется трем типам маскарадов: придворным, аристократическим и публичным. Придворные маскарады (новогодние и июльские) служили инструментом демонстрации ...

Книга посвящена взаимоотношениям власти и журналистики 1830–1855 гг. – времени правления Николая I и одновременно периода журналистской деятельности Андрея Александровича Краевского. Это годы профессионализации журналистики и литературы, попыток общественного мнения выразить себя в печати посредством завуалированных общественно-политических высказываний в условиях жесточайшей цензуры. Один из фокусов исследования в книге – профессиональная биография Краевского, талантливого редактора и предпринимателя, ...

The first decade after the end of the revolutionary events in Gilan (1920-21) was a period of active attempts by the Bolsheviks, the Communist International and the Communist Party of Iran to gain a solid social foothold in Iran. Thispaper, based mainly on Russian archival sources, focuses on studying the dynamics of the guidelines of the CommunistInternational and the Communist Party of Iran, the attempts and features of their implementation, as well as on therelationship of the Iranian Communists with the Bolsheviks and the leadership of the Communist International. The studydemonstrates that the main efforts of the Reds in 1922-25 were aimed at building an inter-class coalition, wherecooperation with Reza Khan became only part of these broader efforts. The failures led the Reds to a previously testedcourse of fomenting the agrarian revolution in Iran and repeated fiascos. Throughout this period, the leadership of the Communist Party of Iran was not a simple executor of directives, but took an active part in the decision-making process,involved the Bolsheviks in its internal party struggle and challenged high-ranking functionaries of the Communist International. ...

Albert Hlebec is a paradigmatic representative of a Slovenian independentist current within the Yugoslav communist movement. Given that the Yugoslav socialist state had eventually been formed on a federal basis, the independentist currents within various local sections of the party withered away after the intro-duction of the Popular Front policy in 1935. The Popular Front ...

This article is a reassessment of the ‘right faction’ in the Communist Party of Yugoslavia (kpj) in the 1920s.
