Kazakh Nationalism In The Gorbachev Era, Steven O'Neal Sabol

History Theses & Dissertations

The primary purpose of this study is to survey specific manifestations of Kazakh nationalism in the Gorbachev era and ask what provoked a seemingly cooperative people to exert their nationalist sentiment. The two principal forms examined are the passage of the Kazakh Language Law in 1989, and the emergence of informal groups and alternative political parties in Kazakhstan.

The nationalism that was expressed by Kazakhs in the Gorbachev era was a resumption of the nationalism that was suspended or suppressed during seventy years of Soviet rule. The December 1986 demonstration in Alma-Ata irreparably altered ethnic relations in the republic and …

The Marshall Mission Of 1946 American Intervention In The Chinese Civil War, Laren W. Metzer

All Master's Theses

The thesis traces the development of the Marshall mission from its inception in late 1945 to its failure in late 1946. Concentrating on Chinese internal affairs, the thesis examines the reaction of the Nationalists and Communists to mediation, and reveals the sources of failure of American policy. The concluding chapter views American China policy within the context of the civil war and suggests that the mission was incapable of altering the historical processes of the Chinese revolution.
