The Ryutin Platform
Author: Pranab Ghosh and Susmita Bhattacharya
₹595.00This is the first English translation of a historic document, secretly prepared in 1932 by M .N.Ryutin (1890-1937), a veteran Bolshevik, and his colleagues, under the aegis of the Union of Marxists- Leninists, an “Organization for the Defence of Marxism-Leninism”. The documents , which is a devastating critique of the Stalinist model of Soviet socialism and highlights the importance of restoration of Leninist norms in Soviet political life, is believed to have been clandestinely circulated inside the Bolshevik Party as an alternative understanding of the problems of socialism in the USSR. With the arrest and subsequent execution of Ryutin in 1937, the document went into oblivion, as it was confiscated by the Soviet authorities. After lying hidden in the Soviet archives for decades it was in 1990 that the full text of this document was published for the first time in Izvestiya TsK KPSS ( Nos.8-12) under the authority of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union.

The Moments of Bengal Partition : Selections from the Amrita Bazar Patrika 1947-1948
Author: Arun Ghosh
₹995.00Arun Ghosh, founder librarian of Centre for Studies in Social Sciences, Calcutta ( Kolkata), has been engaged in painstaking research for several years on the Partition of Bengal in 1947 and its aftermath. In the present volume, he offers a contemporary record of the event in the form of a selection of news items, editorial articles and comments, letters to the editor, etc, that appeared in the Amrita Bazar Patrika, the foremost “ nationalist” daily of the time, in the nineteen months from immediately before the Partition to after, till November 1948. The selections offer insights into the positions taken by political parties and leaders as well as the reactions of the people directly affected by the Partition, leading to the massive displacement of people and their plight, a fragment of history rarely studied at such close quarters. Accessed from fast decaying material stored mostly in poorly maintained archives, the documents gathered here should serve as invaluable resources for fresh studies of the Partition. Learn More -
