This work, written by a Communist, a loyal Soviet citizen and a brilliant literary critic, resident in Kiev, is a carefully documented study of the Soviet nationalities policy in practice, chiefly in its application to the Ukraine, the largest non-Russian Republic. It was written in connection with the arrests of Ukrainian intellectuals in 1965.
This study, emerging as it does from the USSR, is remarkable for its courageous statement of the facts combined with the depth and scope of its scholarly analysis, and I. Dzyuba's own immediate and constant experience of the problems discussed lends to his work an authority which that of outside experts can never have.
Human rights and liberty are closely linked with national ones, declares Dzyuba, and he finds that all over the world nations, including Communist ones, are developing and growing, but not those in the USSR. He adduces a wealth of irrefutable evidence, both historical and contemporary, from cultural, educational, social, economic and administrative spheres, to show Russian chauvinism to be holding sway and striving to engulf all other nationalities. Since this policy is contrary to both Leninism and present historical trends, Dzyuba argues that, in order to avert disaster, it must be reversed, and in place of the present repressions the nationalities problem must become the subject of free public discussion.
“His work is a cri de cœur in defence of the abandoned principles of the Leninist nationalities policy, in defence of humaneness and of justice. Dzyuba has made a penetrating analysis of Marxist writings on the nationalities question and of discussions of the subject within the Party… and has arrived at the conclusion that the present situation and the relationships between the nations in the USSR are a far cry from those advocated by Lenin in his writings.” – Opinion from the Soviet Union.
