Soviet Historical Science and the Decisions of the June 1983 Plenum of the CC CPSU

This is an exposition of the extraordinary meeting of the Bureau of the Department of History of the USSR Academy of Sciences held on June 28, 1983. S. Tikhvinsky, Academic Secretary of the Department, and directors of academic institutes and prominent Soviet historians, Academicians and Corresponding Members of the USSR AS, discussed the historians' tasks in the light of the decisions of the June 1983 Plenum of the CC CPSU.

I. M. VOLKOV. Soviet Agriculture in the Period of Developed Socialism

The author demonstrates that the role of the agrarian sector grows in the developed socialist society and its socio-economic functions broaden. The production potential of Soviet agriculture and its productivity have increased in the 1960s and 1970s, but they are still lagging behind the country's requirements. This situation will be greatly improved through the fulfilment of the 26th CPSU Congress' decisions, the USSR Food Programme set for the period of up to 1990 which will ensure transformation of Soviet agriculture into a well-developed economic branch capable of meeting the country's needs in foodstuffs and raw materials.

V. I. ACHKASOV, M. F. YURIEV. The Role of the USSR in the National-Liberation War of the Chinese People and in the Routing of Imperialist Japan

The article reviews the multiform assistance rendered by the USSR to the Chinese people which has fallen victim to the Japanese aggression on the eve and during the Second World War. This contributed both to the material, moral and political aspects of China's ability to resistance. The events of August 1945-the entrance of the USSR in the v/ar against Japan, the rout by the Soviet Army of the Kiangtu Army and the liberation of North- Eastern China-have led to the victorious termination of the war in the Far East, including the war of the Chinese people against imperialist Japan. The authors expose the attempts of foreign scholars, including some Chinese authors, at belittling the Soviet role in defeating imperialist Japan and liberating China from Japanese interventionists as inconsistent.

T. V. BATAEVA, A. D. STEPANSKY. Journals Dealing with the Organisation of Soviet Archives and Soviet Archival Studies

The article reviews the 60-year history of Soviet periodicals related to archives and archival studies and assesses their contribution to the development and improvement of Soviet archives. The Soviet theory of archival studies was initiated by the Arkhivnoe delo journal published from 1923 to 1941, the information bulletin Voprosy arkhivovedeniya (1958 - 1965) which dealt mainly with the problems of restructuring the system of replenishing Soviet archives and is now being developed by the currently published Sovetskie arkhivyjournal. It covers most urgent theoretical and practical problems of Soviet archival studies and gives much attention to problems of archaeography.

L. M. MINAEV. Struggle for the Alliance Between Workers and Peasants in Bulgaria

The authors see the 1923 September uprising as an important turning-point in the history of struggle of two main classes of Bulgarian society, the workers and the peasants, for socialism. It was the time when many important aspects of the revolutionary struggle had become more distinct. It concerns, primarily, the nature of the relationship between the working class and the peasantry and between their political organisations, the Bulgarian Communist Party and the Bulgarian Agricultural People's Union.

Academician S. L. TIKHVINSKY, V. A. TISHKOV. An Important Means of Theoretical-Methodological and Ideological-Educational Work of Historians

The authors take as their subject an experience accumulated by philosophical methodological seminars conducted at the institutes at the Department of History of the USSR Academy of Sciences. They show the main trends in the elaboration of the Marxist- Leninist theory of the historical process and the ideological education of scientific cadres. The tasks of the methodological seminars connected with the decisions of the June 1983 Plenum of the CC CPSU are outlined,
