  • Pioniri was a name of Young Pioneers of the former Yugoslavia. They were part of the Pioneer Movement and wore red scarves as well as navy blue hats called Titovka. These hats were sometimes white, and bore a red star on the front. A white shirt was often worn with the Pioneer scarf (marama) and the Titovka, although this varied depending on which part of Yugoslavia the particular pioneer was from. Boys often wore navy blue shorts or pants, and girls wore skirts in the same colour, along with white stockings and black shoes. On special occasions, such as a visit from Tito himself, Pioniri sometimes wore traditional costumes from their native regions of Yugoslavia.

  • Communist parties today may or may not formally use the term communist in their name. Even if they do, not all follow a strict interpretation of any of the main ‘schools’ of communism ( Leninism, Stalinism or Trotskyism). The original Communist Parties first started after the creation of the Communist International by the Russian Bolsheviks. Communist parties have held power in 21 nations throughout history, first and most notably in the Soviet Union. The first international Marxist organization was called the Communist League, advocates of the principles put forth in Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels Communist Manifesto.Trotskyism and several other branches of self-proclaimed revolutionary Marxist-based thought contend that, under the influence of Stalinism, the Soviet-influenced Communist Parties drifted far away from the original.On Stalin’s order, the Communist International was dissolved in 1943.

  • The hammer and sickle is a part of communist symbolism and its usage indicates an association with Communism, Communist Party, or Communist state. It features a hammer superimposed on a sickle, or vice versa. The two tools are symbols of the industrial proletariat and the peasantry; placing them together symbolises the unity between industrial and agricultural workers. / It is best known from having been incorporated into the red flag of the Soviet Union, along with the Red Star. It has also been used in other flags and emblems.( wikipedia.org)

  • The five-pointed red star, a pentagram without the inner pentagon, is a symbol of communism as well as broader socialism in general. It is sometimes understood to represent the five fingers of the worker’s hand, as well as the five continents. A lesser known suggestion is that the five points on the star were intended to represent the five social groups that would lead Russia to communism: the youth, the military, the industrial labourers, the agricultural workers or peasantry, and the intelligentsia. Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels used the red star as a symbol. It was also one of the emblems, symbols, and signals representing the Soviet Union under the rule and guidance of the Communist Party, along with the hammer and sickle. The star has since become a symbol representing socialism of all varieties.

  • Karl Heinrich Marx (May 5, 1818 – March 14, 1883) was a 19th century philosopher, political economist, and revolutionary. His approach is indicated by the opening line of the Communist Manifesto (1848). Marx believed that capitalism, like previous socioeconomic systems, will produce internal tensions which will lead to its destruction. Marx devoted himself to an intensive study of history and elaborated on his idea of historical materialism. Marx traced the history of the various modes of production and predicted the collapse of the present one—industrial capitalism—and its replacement by communism.(wikipedia.org)

  • Don’t talk too much, russian poster of communism fear. During the Russian Revolution a movement was initiated to put all arts to service of the dictatorship of the proletariat. In search of new forms of expression, the Proletkult organisation was highly eclectic in its art forms. In practice it meant that artists had to produce works glorifying the leaders and policies of the Soviet Union. Art effectively became a form of propaganda.Posters and paintings works in Style later known as Socialist Realism sympathetic to the communist government include partisans, hammers,sicle, stars and industrial or agricultural landscapes were popular subjects, glorifying the achievements of the Soviet economy.Artists who could not work within the boundaries of Socialist Realism were send to the labor camps. Artists who chose to paint in alternative styles had to do so completely in private and were never able to exhibit or sell their work. (wikipedia.org)

  • A finite image of Infinity: / This is the nature of all poetry. / all human work to its last limit tends; / Its archetype in Heaven never ends. What is the sense of Beauty and of Art? / To show the way into our inmost Heart. The singing of a bird came from the sky; / The world had been a dream; the song was I.
