Excerpt from Howard Zinn's A People's History of the United States covering the period 1945-1960 Howard Zinn's other publications Chapter Sixteen: "A People's War?" The victors [of World War II] were the Soviet Union and the United States (also England, France and Nationalist China, but they were weak). Both these countries now went to workwithout swastikas, goose-stepping, or officially declared racism, but under the cover of "socialism" on one side, and "democracy" on the other, to carve out their own empires of influence. They proceeded to share and contest with one another the domination of the world, to build military machines far greater than the Fascist countries had built, to control the destinies of more countries than Hitler, Mussolini, and Japan had been able to do. They also acted to control their own populations, each country with its own techniques-crude in the Soviet Union, sophisticated in the United Statesto make their rule secure. The war not only put the United States in a position to dominate much of the world; it created conditions for effective control at home. The unemployment, the economic distress, and the consequent turmoil that had marked the thirties, only partly relieved by New Deal measures, had been pacified, overcome by the greater turmoil of the war. The war brought higher prices for farmers, higher wages, enough prosperity for enough of the population to assure against the rebellions that so threatened the thirties. As Lawrence Wittner writes, "The war rejuvenated American capitalism." The biggest gains were in corporate profits, which rose from $6.4 billion in 1940 to $10.8 billion in 1944. But enough went to workers and farmers to make them feel the system was doing well for them.

The American Red Cross and the Korean War Previous Page A Brief History of the American Red Cross History Timeline FAQ's About Our History The Korean War began in 1950 when Communist forces of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea crossed the 38th parallel and invaded the Republic of Korea in the south. Thus began three years of bitter hostility, often called "the forgotten war" because it was overshadowed by World War II and ended in a stalemate rather than with a victor. Nevertheless, the Korean War caused an estimated four million military and civilian deaths and involved the armed forces of nearly 20 nations, many of whose troops were veterans of World War II being pressed into service for a second time. The war ended in 1953 where it began, with an armistice-but not a peace treaty-that still divides the Korean peninsula along the 38th parallel. In 1999, the United States began a series of multi-year ceremonies to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the Korean War and the human sacrifices it caused. The American Red Cross joined in this effort-in part to recognize the contributions of its own workers who served in South Korea during the war and since. Before the War Service to the Military during Wartime Service at Military Installations (SMI) included field directors and assistants serving military personnel in combat zones and military installations at home and overseas.

No Cold War,... No Korean War Review by Allen R. Millet Rethinking the Korean War: A New Diplomatic and Strategic History . By William Stueck.(Princeton and Oxford: Princeton University Press, 2002. Pp. xi, 285. $29.95 cloth.) "Stueck's treatment of the Russian and Chinese roles still enforces his conviction that the war was an international phenomenon, unimaginable outside of the Soviet-US global rivalry." Rhee The two Korean regimes were hardly passive victims, twisting and turning to make their patrons sensitive to the dire consequences of abandoning their Korean clients. Syngman Rhee had a more demanding challenge than Kim Il-sung. Neither Rhee nor Kim were pliant puppets, and Stueck is especially good at describing the Rhee-American marriage as a dysfunctional reunion from 1945 until 1954 when Rhee finally blackmailed the U.S. into a generous foreign aid program, a military alliance, and protection from Japan and the United Nations. In sum, Stueck's contribution to our understanding of the Korean War is substantial and should be required reading for all Cold War specialists. Return to top March 7, 2005

94. Korea's Partition: Soviet-American Pursuit Of Reunification, 1945-1948 James I. Matray examines initial efforts at korean reunification between the end of World war II and the start of the korean war. http://www.mtholyoke.edu/acad/intrel/korpart.htm

Review Essay Korea's Partition: Soviet-American Pursuit of Reunification, 1945-1948 JAMES I. MATRAY © 1998 James I. Matray I t became fashionable more than a decade ago for scholars to portray the Korean War as a civil conflict, rejecting the traditional interpretation of the war as an example of Soviet-inspired, external aggression.[1] But the recent release of previously classified Soviet and Chinese documents has brought an abrupt end to this emerging consensus. This has made possible renewed emphasis on international factors in reexaminations of the Korean War. Kathryn Weathersby signaled that this shift was well underway in 1993 when she concluded that the war's origins "lie primarily with the division of Korea in 1945 and the polarization of Korean politics that resulted from . . . the policies of the two occupying powers. . . . The Soviet Union played a key role in the outbreak of the war, but it was as facilitator, not as originator."[2] This essay reviews and compares traditional and revisionist perspectives on the origins of the Korean War. The Historical Debate Neither the Hitchcock nor Stone interpretation had won many adherents as the fighting in Korea ended. Thereafter, the Truman assessment prevailed for a decade largely because Soviet-American relations remained acrimonious. Early studies of the Korean War blamed the United States for the North Korean attack, invariably charging that the Truman Administration had abandoned South Korea publicly and thus gave Kim Il-sung a green light to launch his invasion. For proof, these writers pointed to Secretary of State Dean Acheson's National Press Club speech excluding the ROK from the US "defensive perimeter," congressional rejection of the Korean aid bill, Senator Tom Connally's public prediction that Soviet or Chinese communist conquest of all Korea was inevitable, and limits on the military capabilities of South Korea.[8] This traditional analytical approach survived into the 1960s;[9] some recent detailed studies still reflect this viewpoint.[10]

The name I received in response to my request was James Arthur Harwood , a Sergeant in the US Army (5th Special Forces) who went Missing in Action in South Vietnam on 15 January 1971. There was another man lost in the same incident, a First Lieutenant by the name of Gerald Francis Kinsman ; I decided to adopt him too. I built remembrance pages for both the men on my 'have fun, catch all' website that, amongst other things, included cyber pet adoptions and personal photos. Later on that year, I decided to create a site just for the guys. While I added to the site on occasion, it was not large, and I thought that with those two men, "that was that." Wrong. Around January or February of 1999, I began to think about the POW/MIA issue some more, and decided to see if there were any women I could adopt. I learned that there was one, a civilian (missionary) surgeon named Dr. Eleanor Ardel Vietti

96. JPRI Working Paper No. 93 Essay examining growing antiamerican feelings among the South Koreans, their causes and relation to Cold war events. http://www.jpri.org/publications/workingpapers/wp93.html

JPRI Working Paper No. 93, July 2003 South Korean Anti-Americanism by Meredith Woo-Cumings Political Change The manner of U.S. support for political stability in South Korea created in the minds of the ordinary South Korean citizens a permanent linkage between the U.S. military and authoritarianism in South Korea. The 1948 National Security Law linked the U.S. military with the Korean military dictators, as if they were two peas in the pod, and under Article Seven of the 1980 National Security Law, anyone who had written or disseminated materials criticizing the South Korean government or the presence of U.S. armed forces in South Korea was punishable through imprisonment. Amnesty International noted that many people were held political prisoner under those pretexts. The End of the Bilateral Economic Relationship The saving grace was that South Korea was blessed with an economic guarantor of last resort, the United States, with which it had a special relationship based on military security. One of the great cushions of the Korean economy was the Cold War, since any serious economic crisis would also raise security concerns, or even transform economic crises into crises of security. The United States always stood ready to help out in the event of trouble, even as it slapped the Korean wrist now and then for maintaining market barriers and not liberalizing enough. So, at any time before 1989, Seoul could expect Washington and Tokyo to step in and help it out bilaterally, with the best example being the crisis of 1979-1980, which was probably the worst financial crisis in recent South Korean history.

98. Reaction Formation A psychological application of Freud's theory about Reaction Formation to the plight of american POWs during the korean war http://www.koolpages.com/almalaika/repb.html

Psychoanalysis And Culture It is often assumed that psychiatry is the school of thought which focuses on the individual, that its main concern is , moreover, the various forms of mental illness which some individuals suffer from. This is not true. Freud wrote a book entirely devoted to Group psychology, and there are various studies which relied on the insights of psychiatry to explain such cultural phenomena as Literature, the Cinema, and diverse cultural phenomena. Politicians today rely on the insights of psychologists to comprehend the motives for world leaders acting as they do. Freud Defense Mechanisms: It is well known that Sigmund Freud based his analytic system on interaction with his patients. During the exchange, he discovered that patients resist telling him the truth about certain experiences from their past. He thought that this is intentional, at first, and then he came to discover that, sometimes, patients just forget, or deny, or repress, the truth, because it is difficult to deal with.. The anxiety level of the subject rises considerably when reminded of such experiences, some of which being traumatic and frightening. Therefore, the defenses are methods of concealing, either from the psychiatrist, or from the self, at least some of these experiences which could well be partial causes of the illness the patient suffers from.. It is therefore important to stress that these defense mechanisms are rhetorical.. They express the self in language.. as the subject wishes to present him/herself to the world.

99. Korean War US POW's In Soviet Jails A news story on american prisoners of wars captured during the korean war and sent to Soviet prisons and labor camps. http://www.kimsoft.com/korea/mia-russ.htm

Korean War US POW's in Soviet Jails By JAMES BROOKE July 19, 1996, The New York Times Khabarovsk, Russia Time has stooped Vladimir Trotsenko's shoulders, but his memories are as clear as his cobalt blue eyes: the American flyer, his right arm in a new cast, in a Soviet military hospital ward. The American, he recalled, would slowly re peat, "America San Francisco, Cleveland, Los Angeles, Chicago." Curious, Trotsenko, a paratrooper recovering from a knee injury, would hobble down the third-floor hospital corridor to gaze at the four imprisoned Americans. The airman with the broken arm would point to a crewman in a body cast and would make cradling m otions with his arms, indicating that the man had left two small children back home. The year was 1951, and the place was Military Hospital 404 in Novosysoyevka, 300 miles south of here. Stalin was in his last years, the Korean War was raging, and the Cold War with the United States was on. "I did not talk about this for 43 years," Trotsenko, spry at 68, said as his wife, Nina, served blini and borscht at their wooden dacha outside this city, the largest industrial center of Russia's Far East. In 1994, he noticed a small advertisement in a local newspaper placed by a new group, a Russian-American commission on prisoners of war. Admitting that he was "tortured" about whether "to call or not to call," he finally did.
