1 Chairs Max Fink John Rutecki Greetings! My name is Max Fink and I am honored to be your comrade in proletariat struggle. I am a senior at Ithaca High School. In addition to my fervent love of Model United Nations, I am an avid pursuer of the sartorial arts, rhetoric, and lengthy strolls in the forest greens. Feel more than welcome to me with any questions, concerns, or comments about committee! I look forward to seeing you all in the Politburo. Hello! My name is John Rutecki and I am humbled to join you in liberating the oppressed masses. I am a junior at Pittsford Sutherland High School and this is my first time chairing. In addition to Model UN, I greatly enjoy playing chess, reading, and debating. Please don t hesitate to me with any questions. I am excited to see you all at the Revolutionary Committee. Committee Description The is a fictional gathering of Politburo leaders tasked with resolving the topics outlined below. This committee will be run crisis-style. This means that topics will not be addressed separately, but instead will be seamlessly blended and addressed through a series of crises that will be presented to committee. Your chairs will act as the Glorious Brezhnev and Khrushchev respectively and hold an active role in steering the committee towards accomplishing our revolutionary agenda. The majority of committee will be run as moderated caucuses to keep up with the fast pace of debate and the ever changing landscape of the crisis. The committee as a whole will be allowed to pass directives, press releases, and communiques to respond to the crises, and ultimately to help The USSR crush American Imperialism. Delegates will also have access to portfolio powers which are independent directives/press releases/communiques that the delegates country carries out independent from the forum. Keep in mind these powers must proportional to the position of your Politburo Member. Position papers should address the goals of the Nation with the added perspective and worldview of your Politburo Member. The date of committee is January 1st, 1962.
2 Revolutionary Goals of the Committee: Expansion of Communism Space Race Keeping the Proletariat Uncorrupted EXPANSION OF COMMUNISM It has been 45 years since the first uprising of the proletariat against the vile Bourgeoisie to create the glorious Union of Soviet Socialist Republics. Our task now is to act in the image of glorious Lenin and spread our vision of a proletarian utopia. Since the end of the Second World War, we have pushed to aid other nations to follow in our footsteps. With the creation of the Council for Mutual Economic Assistance (COMECON) we established the tools to organize planned economies worldwide; with the Warsaw Pact we created a framework to unite those same nations militarily. We have supported the United Arab Republic, helping the state of Egypt with the nationalization of their Suez Canal by selling arms through Czechoslovakia in The feelings of Pan-Arab stirred by Gamal Abdel Nassar, which still linger in the Middle East, must be blended with those of communist revolution, a crucial blow to the capitalist former colonizers of the Middle East. Though just last year Nassar s Egypt became a member of the Non-Aligned movement, the union is weak. We must prove to the world our influence by swaying its member states to our aims. In Asia the people stir also with revolution. Though the Communist Party of China has denounced our glorious vision as revisionist and unloyal our cause is not lost. We must come to a conclusion with the Chinese, pacifying them and strengthening our own influence in the region. Our new vision and leadership will allow us to spread the red tide as never before. Indonesia is a great recipient of our arms, and stronger bonds are needed to establish an alliance. Though the bloody Korean War has halted, we must support communist allies worldwide, while avoiding nuclear holocaust. Many developing nations need the guidance of a helping communist brother to build them up. In the Americas, Cuba is a staunch ally plagued by US imperialism just a few years after its 1959 birth to glory. We must protect and defend it, utilizing its influence to sway other nations to our goals. The American Bay of Pigs invasion was a failure, but it does not mean they will not try again. Revolutionary groups that share our goals are active from Nicaragua to Venezuela; we must ride this rising red tide and beat the United States.
3 EXPANSION OF COMMUNISM (ctd.) In Africa, too, our struggle is heard, with Premier Khrushchev having visited Angola in support of their struggle for communist prevalence, although many nations there still reside under the strong arm of Imperialist doctrine and rule. We must rout this plague of capitalism and bring revolution. Delegates should consider and research how to proceed in regards to the following: Supporting Cuba against the US and aiding in South American revolution, promoting strength in Europe and the east bloc, forming a consensus on Chinese Communism (either reconciliation or isolation) and the promotion of Soviet communism in Asia, as well as the swaying of non-aligned Nations and newly formed African states. Sources: SPACE RACE In the aftermath of the Second World War, a great arms race quickly began to develop. This arms race, the product of a cold war between the U.S. and our glorious U.S.S.R., would quickly transform into a competition to master space. After their discoveries of the German V-2 rocket technology at the end of World War II, both the U.S. and the U.S.S.R. were eager to study advanced rocket technology and its use in ballistic missiles. In October of 1957, our great comrades beat the U.S. to space with the first man-made satellite, Sputnik, ensuring that the U.S. could not spread their dogma of imperialism to the final frontier. However, the elitists were quick to respond with their own satellite, Explorer I, in Our most recent launch, Luna 1, in 1959 of an unmanned rocket to the moon further pushed the limits of modern science as it was able to leave Earth s orbit, a feat which mankind had never accomplished until then. Meanwhile, both the capitalists and our comrades have been working tirelessly to develop nuclear weapons. Though the U.S. did develop the technology first, we have created the most powerful versions of nuclear weaponry in the world and now produce them in the greatest numbers. As it stands, we have the capability to defend our great republic against any attack from foreign imperialists. However, there are agents of the bourgeoisie at every turn waiting to undermine the masses. Just recently in 1959, one of our esteemed comrades, Pyotyr Popov, was found to be leaking secrets to the capitalists in the United States. This kind of infiltration is unacceptable and should
4 SPACE RACE (ctd.) remind us that in our quest to rout the bourgeoisie in space we must not let the West usurp us on Earth. Comrades, we are on the brink of mastering a realm which man has only dared dream of until now. It is not only critical that we show the world that the masses are more productive than any bourgeoisiedominated class society, it is also critical that we recognize that a nation who can launch a rocket to the moon can even more easily send a ballistic missile to any point on Earth. Comrades, if we can conquer space, then we shall have the reverence we, the masses, deserve. Delegates should consider and research how to proceed in regards to the following: what our ultimate goal is in space (to demonstrate communist technological superiority or to pursue strategic military value as well), how we can prevent our intelligence from falling into the hands of Western agents, and a way that we can monopolize our influence completely and force the US to concede technological defeat. PBS: Space Race Time Line Sources: History: The Space Race Royal Air Force Musehttp:// Space Race KEEP THE PROLETARIAT UNCORRUPTED Despite Communism's glory, there have been stirrings in the populace. Capitalist dissidents and spies attempt to sow the seeds of panic and revolt among our populace. Just as the Bolsheviks of the October Revolution destroyed the White Army, we too must remove dissent and pacify our population. Hungarians are unhappy with the glory of communism protested against their government in 1956, and similar feelings now are on the rise in Czechoslovakia. KGB officers tell us that citizens in the eastern bloc complain of food rations, of the former gulags of the east, and are disgruntled at the hardship of proletarian struggle. We must pacify the people and prevent future uprisings, which hint at weaknesses in our leadership. German bourgeoisie educated intelligentsia are fleeing our borders in Berlin still, despite last year s construction of a wall there. We must find a way to retain our most educated members of society, who
5 KEEP THE PROLETARIAT UNCORRUPTED (ctd.) are essential in supporting and leading our proud union, yet we must also still show strength and maintaining the vision of our revolution. Spying and US intelligence gathering has also been reif within our glorious nation, and we must fight tooth and nail to prevent the Americans from getting anything. Delegates should consider and research how to proceed in regards to the following: How to counteract dissent within eastern bloc and soviet aligned countries (do we react with an iron fist or a gentle touch?), How do we prevent future uprisings and infiltration, and lastly, how to we prevent brain drain and illegal emigration from our nations while projecting an image of Soviet paradise especially in border states like the GDR?
