A Joke on the French sembled in National Communism and Popular Revolt in Eastern Europe demonstrate the homogeneity of the Communism of Gomulka and Tito, Hoxha and Kadar, with that of the Soviet Union.

It is a pity that the material available in these documents is not interpreted by someone of Mr. Wolfe’s ability. The documents are, in fact, presented without any interpretation. But to the reader acquainted with Communist rhetoric and logic, the speeches and resolutions and editorials here included show clearly that, despite the internecine differences, these are Communists—speaking, thinking, feeling, and acting like Communists. Those who are less knowledgeable in this field have only to read Mr. Wolfe’s book first and then apply his method to these documents. They form a perfect pendant to his thesis.
