Why did the USSR favor communism? And why did they promote it?

eimsori [14]

Answer:

Many Europeans were already followers of communism or related socialist ideologies even before the war due to the impact of the achievements of the Soviet Union in the fields of proletarian emancipation, industrial modernization and social progress.

We can think of the incredible response of international communists/leftist volunteers to fight in Spain against Franco and his fascist supporters (among which we can even find Italians and Germans!!!).

It is true that many communist and leftist organizations received a cold shower after the announcement of the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact between Soviet Union and Nazi Germany but many thought that was a clever, albeit twisted, move of Stalin to trick the Nazi…in some way!

Anyway, after WWII the Soviet Union came out as the winner and a winner that almost singlehandedly won the war!!!

At the end Stalin seemed not only the benign "Father" of the workers but also the brilliant strategist that won the war for the communist ideology...

So if the Soviet Union managed to do that its ideology had to be the winning one!!!

Any kind of doubt or opposition to Stalinist communism was forgotten or silenced.

Fascists/Nazis were responsible for widespread destruction, massacres, famine and murder while the communists looked at themselves as the defenders of humanity against the evil doers that on top of everything even created concentration camps and prosecuted minorities (thing that was already happening for years in Soviet Union anyway).

In many nations like France, Greece, Yugoslavia, Italy communist guerrilla resistant fighters against the Nazis were now acclaimed as liberators and redeemer of the motherland.

There was also opportunism…In my country, Italy, after the war it is said that many black shirts turned red….overnight…and not because of weird problem in washing them!

La historia de puerto rico

andre [41]

The answer is: La historia de Puerto Rico comenzó con el asentamiento del pueblo ostionoide en el archipiélago de Puerto Rico entre los años 3000 y 2000 a. C. Otras tribus, como la de los indios arahuaco y saladoide, poblaron la isla entre los años 430 a. C. y 1000 d. C. En el momento de la llegada de Cristóbal Colón al Nuevo Mundo en 1492, la cultura indígena dominante era la de los taínos. La cultura taína se extinguió durante la última mitad del siglo XVI debido a la explotación de los pobladores españoles, a la guerra que libraron contra los taínos y las enfermedades que trajeron.

Localizado en el noreste del Mar Caribe, Puerto Rico fue clave del Imperio español desde los primeros años de la exploración, conquista y colonización del Nuevo Mundo. La isla fue un puesto militar importante durante muchas guerras entre España y otras potencias europeas por el control de la región en los siglos XVI, XVII y XVIII. La más pequeña de las Antillas Mayores, Puerto Rico fue trampolín en el pasaje de Europa a Cuba, México, Centroamérica y los territorios del norte de Sudamérica. A lo largo de casi todo el siglo XIX hasta el final de la guerra hispano-estadounidense, Puerto Rico y Cuba fueron las dos últimas colonias españolas en el Nuevo Mundo; sirvieron como los últimos puestos de avanzada españoles en una estrategia para volver a obtener el control del continente americano.

In what ways does America still take advantage of cheap immigrant labor to accomplish difficult tasks

Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

This baseline analysis focuses first and foremost on immigration's direct effect on the economy through the addition of workers to the labor force. At the most basic level, immigration increases the supply of labor in the economy. More labor means more goods and services being produced, so that national output (GDP) rises.

Immigration also affects the prices of the inputs that are used to produce these goods and services. Those inputs for which immigrant labor substitutes will suffer as the prices of their services fall. Simply put, "substitutes" means two things that are very similar to one another. As a homely example, red apples and green apples are almost perfect substitutes, so that an increase in the number of red apples would not only reduce the price of red apples, but also simultaneously lower the price of green apples by about the same amount. In the context of immigration, whereas we shall see many immigrants are unskilled laborers, the strong presumption is that immigrants are substitutes for domestic unskilled labor.3 Therefore, an increase in the number of immigrants will generally decrease the wages of domestic unskilled workers.

Immigrants are not substitutes for all domestic workers. A disproportionate number of immigrants are low-skilled relative to native workers, and so tend to be poor substitutes for workers other than the low-skilled—that is, they do not do the same things at all. In the jargon of economics, two factors that are not substitutes are called "complements." For a simple example, think of supervisors and production workers. Suppose that, for every 50 production workers, we need one supervisor. If we increase the number of production workers, we will need more supervisors and their wages will rise. An increase in the number of immigrants, then, will raise the wages of those domestic workers who are their complements. The common presumption is that skilled domestic workers are complements for immigrants, so that an increase in the number of immigrants will raise the wages of domestic skilled labor. Capital may also be a complement to immigrant labor, although the evidence on the complementarity of unskilled labor and capital is more ambiguous than that of skilled and unskilled labor. In summary, an increase in immigration flows will lead to higher incomes for productive factors that are complementary with immigrants, but lower incomes for factors that compete with immigrants.
