The study calls the attention to the conclusion that Lenin's political and theoretical views on the first Russian revolution are organically and directly rooted in the historical-economical-theoretical and political analysis of the capitalist system, more precisely the Russian capitalism. From the perspective of his "preparation" for the revolution of 1905 (and 1917) it is such a fundamental circumstance that is necessary to understand his political-strategic considerations that later played a dominant role in his revolutionary activity and thinking.

In Russia the Federal Security Service is again creating political provocative trials against "leftist terrorism." The author shows the legal and political fakeness and the political function of these trials embedded in the history of the created cases. The history of the examinations fits the Stalinist tradition just as it fits the preceding heritage of the tsarist secret service.

Strange transitions have happened on the brims of globalisation. The study presents the result of the "deep drilling" in the surroundings of Kunhegyes. The micro-processes tell a lot about the nature of teh big picture.

The author analyses the relationship between the US fears of European integration and the foreign policy of the US. He points out that the US aspirations have deadlocked in virtually every sense. Europe, on the other hand, as the great question mark of universal geopolitics, could become the alternative for a more multicoloured world.
