Answer the following in detail
1. Estimate the role of Mao Tse tung in making China a communist country.
After the Russian Revolution of 1917, the ideas of Marx and Lenin became popular among the intellectuals.
Slowly, the Communist Party of China became popular under the leadership of Mao Tse Tung and Chou en Lai.
The Communist increased their influence among the workers and peas an obtained recruits for their army.
Mao had understood that Kuomintang grip on the towns was very strong. So, he concentrated his energies on organizing the peasantry.
The Communists led by Mao retreated into the wild mountain where they stayed for seven years.
The campaign against the communists was distracted as Chiang Kai Shek had to deal with the constant threat from Japan and also the attacks from war lords.
In 1934, the Communist Army of about 100,000 set out on the Long March. In 1935, after crossing 6,000 miles, only 20, ooo members reached northern Sheni.
By 1937, Mao had become the leader of over 10 million people of China.
With the surrender of the Japanese (1945), both the Kuomintang and the Communists tried to capture the power. In this race, Kuomintang was successful.
So, Mao was keen on obtaining the support of the middle class. In the mean time, he continued the use of guerrilla tactics and also ordered large scale military movements.
Cities fell one by one and Chiang Kai-shek’s army began to disintegrate quickly.
In the summer of 1948, Communist control was established in most of the parts of China. In 1949, the People’s Republic of China emerged under the leadership of Mao Tse-tung.
2. Attempt an essay on the Arab-Israeli wars of 1967 and 1973.?
Ans : Arab-Israeli War – 1967:
The Palestinian Liberation Organisation was formed in 1964.
From that time onwards, Israel came to be attacked frequently by Palestinian guerrilla groups based in Syria, Lebanon and Jordon.
In Nov. 1966, an Israeli attacked the village of Al-Samu in Jordanian West Bank.
Israel’s air battle with Syria in April 1967 ended in the shooting down six Syrian MiGfighterjets.
Egypt in support Syria mobilized its forces in the Sinai and closed the Gulf of Aqaba to Israeli shipping.
King Hussein of Jordan signed a mutual defence pact with Egypt.
Accordingly, it was decided to place Jordanian forces under Egyptian command. Soon Iraq also joined the alliance.
Arab-Israeli War – 1973:
Anwar Sadat, the President of Egypt and Nafez al-Assad, the President of Syria concluded a secret agreement in Jan. 1973. Their aim was to bring their armies under one command.
Anwar Sadat offered the Israelis a peace deal. Israel rejected the offer.
Egypt and Syria launched a sudden and surprise attack on the Yom Kippur religious holiday.
ThoughIsraelsufferedheavycasualties,itfinallypushedbacktheArabforces.
By way of mediation, the US succeeded in asserting its hegemony over the region and its oil. Its strategy of encouraging hostility between states and people resulted in a succession of wars – civil war in Lebanon, war between Iraq and Iran, Israel’s invasion of Lebanon and US – led war against Iraq.
3.Narrate the history of transformation of council of Europe into a Union?
One of the momentous decisions taken in the post World War II era was to integrate the states of Western Europe. The Europeans countries wanted -
i) to prevent further European wars by ending the rivalry between France and Germany.
ii) to create a united Europe to resist any threat from Soviet Russia.
iii) to form a third force in the world to counter-balance the strength of the US and USSR.
iv) to make full use of the economic and military resources of Europe by organizing them on a continental scale.
In May 1949 ten countries met in London and signed to form a Council of Europe. The Council of Europe with headquarters at Strasbourg was established.
Since, the Council of Europe had no real power, European Defence Community, European coal and Steel Community and European Economic community are established.
The Maastricht (Netherlands) Treaty signed on Feb. 1992 created the European Union.
The monetary policy and a common currency (Euro) to replace national currencies managed by common monetary institutions were subsequently planned and implemented.
Today, the European Union has 28 member states and functions from its headquarters at Brussels, Belgium.
