Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from America's Possible Share, in the Economic Future of Russia The signing of the armistice and the prospect of durable peace in the very near future have somewhat revived interest in Russia and in the Russian market among American business-men. In response to this interest displayed by individual business-men as well as by various trade-industrial organizations, I am issuing this pamphlet devoted to the possibilities for American-Russian commercial and financial cooperation. The pamphlet contains the essentials of my two pamphlets, "Commercial Russia" and "The Russian Market, its Possibilities and Problems," issued by the American-Russian Chamber of Commerce during 1916, and also of an article of mine published several months ago in the "Daily Standard Statistics Service." Although the prospect of peace has, as I have said before, revived interest in Russia among individual American business-men and various trade-industrial organizations, this interest is still insufficient considering the importance of the possible American-Russian trade and financial cooperation from the point of view of the benefit of both countries. Bolshevism, with its wild experiments in Russia's political, cultural and economic life, with all the misfortune and destruction it has brought Russia, naturally scares and disappoints many who were previously sincerely interested in Russia. This disappointment should not becloud the proper perspective necessary for an understanding of the Russian problem as it stands to-day. Great is the destruction brought upon Russia by the plague of Bolshevism, great and bloody are the sacrifices borne by the present Russian generation. But, from the point of view of Russia's national existence all her present misfortunes, inevitable in a period of transition to a higher form of State organization, are insignificant and will pass in a short time. Russia is not an old man dying from exhaustion; she is a child painfully hurt in an endeavor to walk independently for the first time in her life.

This book was released on 2017-03-01 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: White reassesses Anglo-American trade with Soviet Russia immediately following the Bolshevik Revolution to show that, unlike diplomatic relations, commercial ties were not severed by ideological differences. She argues that British and American trade with Russia resumed soon after the Bolsheviks' rise to power and that this period of trade had a significant effect on future commerce.

Download or read book Friends Or Foes written by Norman E. Saul and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 464 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With Friends or Foes? Norman Saul continues his monumental multivolume magnum opus on U.S.-Russian relations over the course of 200 years. This fourth volume provides the first comprehensive study in any language of an era that shaped the rest of the century and captures the major changes in relations between two nations on the verge of becoming dominant global powers. Among other things, Saul examines the rationale for America's failure to recognize the Soviet government through the early 1930s, analyzing the impact of the Red Scare and the roles of the State Department, Russian migrs, religious groups, and key individuals—like Charles Evans Hughes, Robert Kelley, Herbert Hoover, Boris Skvirsky, Olga Kameneva, and Maxim Litvinov—on the policy process. In addition, he recalls the American Relief Administration's gigantic effort to help Russian peasants and garners new material from American business records on concession arrangements and commerce and on Soviet responses during the first Five Year Plan. He also records travelers' impressions, cultural exchange, and the role of academia in each country—particularly the contribution of Russian émigré scholars to American education and the contributions of American journalists in Russia. Saul also reveals the tendency on both sides to preserve an atmosphere of secrecy, conducting business behind closed doors and rarely on paper. His prodigious research in the Hoover Presidential Library, the Franklin Roosevelt Library, and the Hoover Institution at Stanford University-incorporating overlooked Diplomat Post Records and featuring an interview with George Kennan on his diplomatic role—has yielded a wealth of new insights into what really happened during a period in the history of the relations between the two countries that remains mysterious and controversial. Breaking new ground in diplomatic, economic, social, and cultural history, Saul's book illuminates both the mutual fascination that briefly permitted peaceful coexistence (and eventual alliance) and the ideological battles that ultimately led to the Cold War.
Download or read book The Cambridge History of America and the World Volume 3 1900 1945 written by Brooke L. Blower and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2022-03-03 with total page 866 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The third volume of The Cambridge History of America and the World covers the volatile period between 1900 and 1945 when the United States emerged as a world power and American engagements abroad flourished in new and consequential ways. Showcasing the most innovative approaches to both traditional topics and emerging themes, leading scholars chart the complex ways in which Americans projected their growing influence across the globe; how others interpreted and constrained those efforts; how Americans disagreed with each other, often fiercely, about foreign relations; and how race, religion, gender, and other factors shaped their worldviews. During the early twentieth century, accelerating forces of global interdependence presented Americans, like others, with a set of urgent challenges from managing borders, humanitarian crises, economic depression, and modern warfare to confronting the radical, new political movements of communism, fascism, and anticolonial nationalism. This volume will set the standard for new understandings of this pivotal moment in the history of America and the world.

Download or read book Steinmetz written by Ronald R. Kline and published by . This book was released on 1992 with total page 424 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Obtaining nearly two hundred patents, he made his most important contributions in electrical energy loss (or hysteresis), the understanding and wider use of alternating current, and high-voltage power transmission. The General Electric corporation, Kline explains, became Steinmetz's home, his identity, and a platform from which he stepped onto the wider stage of world affairs. As leader of the American Institute of Electrical Engineers, Socialist councilman in Schenectady, and part-time professor of political economy at Union College, Steinmetz attempted to "engineer" society in the direction of a technocratic utopia by promoting welfare capitalism, Lenin's electrification of the Soviet Union, and other schemes--all with limited success. According to Kline, the legend of Steinmetz illustrates a shift in hero worship from inventors to scientists after World War I.
