Summary
(EN: This book is somewhat controversial - not merely because of its topic, but because of its origin. It is presented as a synthesis of various Soviet documents on the practice of brainwashing, but may in fact be a fabrication to provoke outrage and opposition to the communist party and due to its suspicious origin is considered that it may be a hoax or a work of science fiction. I've read it, and preserved notes, as it seems interesting and plausible, in spite of its dubious validity and origin.)
The progress of communism has been remarkable: in less than fifty years it has spread across one-sixth of the inhabited world, a pace that far exceeds the spread of the political empires and religious ideologies of past generations. But it cannot be left to slow evolution - effort is necessary to unite the world, as there are nations that are undertaking effort to prevent unity.
The aim of communism is not to destroy other nations by brute force, but to welcome them into a global system. Conventional warfare is counterproductive: massive armies and powerful weapons means that even victory means taking significant damage and "winning" a devastated and depopulated land.
Psychopolitical operations are the most effective way to spread the ideology and accomplish the goal of global communism. If the capitalist nations can be subtly and gradually turned to the ideology, there need never be a nuclear war. Ultimately, the goals of communism are better served by conquest of mind rather than force of battle.
The end of war, the end of strife among mankind, is the ultimate goal of communism. But as ever, this lasting peace must be won by effort that will, at times, require violence to be done. The psychopolitical campaign will not be entirely bloodless, but far less bloody than military campaigns.
