【看中国记者欧阳光编译】据路透社5月23日(周三)报道,一名支持者周三在与中国盲人人权活动家陈光诚会面后表示,陈光诚担心其侄子陈克贵将遭中国的官员们报复,进行复仇式的审判;而且陈光诚将从纽约继续公开他的困境。

美国德州对华援助协会会长傅希秋在与陈光诚会晤后表示,"他嗅出了将会发生一个虚假的审判,他的侄子(陈克贵)将面临巨大的报复"。陈光诚将在纽约大学学习法律。

"他非常担心,他一再告诉我,那是他最担心的。他将会为他的侄子、其他的家人,及那些正面临迫害的支持者们发声……他将在美国继续这么做。"

陈光诚的侄子陈克贵已被当局控以"故意杀人罪",指控他在4月27日那天,当一群当地官员发现陈光诚逃跑后,闯进了他们家,陈克贵用刀挡开打跑了这些官员。

上周五,当局禁止陈克贵选择他自己的辩护律师。

"(陈光诚)呼吁国际社会继续关注", 傅希秋对路透社记者表示。他还补充说,陈光诚说,美国方面已经向中方表达了对陈克贵案的关注。

虽然陈光诚已在曼哈顿纽约大学的格林威治村安顿下来,其在中国山东的亲属和支持者们仍遭到(中国)安全当局的封锁。

傅希秋还说,陈光诚的"精神状态和身体状况良好,我想是在改善之中。"

The Black Book of Communism: Crimes, Terror, Repression

The Black Book of Communism: Crimes, Terror, Repression

Already famous throughout Europe, this international bestseller plumbs recently opened archives in the former Soviet bloc to reveal the actual, practical accomplishments of Communism around the world: terror, torture, famine, mass deportations, and massacres. Astonishing in the sheer detail it amasses, the book is the first comprehensive attempt to catalogue and analyze the crimes of Communism over seventy years.

"Revolutions, like trees, must be judged by their fruit," Ignazio Silone wrote, and this is the standard the authors apply to the Communist experience—in the China of "the Great Helmsman," Kim Il Sung's Korea, Vietnam under "Uncle Ho" and Cuba under Castro, Ethiopia under Mengistu, Angola under Neto, and Afghanistan under Najibullah. The authors, all distinguished scholars based in Europe, document Communist crimes against humanity, but also crimes against national and universal culture, from Stalin's destruction of hundreds of churches in Moscow to Ceausescu's leveling of the historic heart of Bucharest to the widescale devastation visited on Chinese culture by Mao's Red Guards.

As the death toll mounts—as many as 25 million in the former Soviet Union, 65 million in China, 1.7 million in Cambodia, and on and on—the authors systematically show how and why, wherever the millenarian ideology of Communism was established, it quickly led to crime, terror, and repression. An extraordinary accounting, this book amply documents the unparalleled position and significance of Communism in the hierarchy of violence that is the history of the twentieth century.

When it was first published in France in 1997, Le livre noir du Communisme touched off a storm of controversy that continues to rage today. Even some of his contributors shied away from chief editor Stéphane Courtois's conclusion that Communism, in all its many forms, was morally no better than Nazism; the two totalitarian systems, Courtois argued, were far better at killing than at governing, as t! he world learned to its sorrow.

Communism did kill, Courtois and his fellow historians demonstrate, with ruthless efficiency: 25 million in Russia during the Bolshevik and Stalinist eras, perhaps 65 million in China under the eyes of Mao Zedong, 2 million in Cambodia, millions more Africa, Eastern Europe, and Latin America--an astonishingly high toll of victims. This freely expressed penchant for homicide, Courtois maintains, was no accident, but an integral trait of a philosophy, and a practical politics, that promised to erase class distinctions by erasing classes and the living humans that populated them. Courtois and his contributors document Communism's crimes in numbing detail, moving from country to country, revolution to revolution. The figures they offer will likely provoke argument, if not among cliometricians then among the ideologically inclined. So, too, will Courtois's suggestion that those who hold Lenin, Trotsky, and Ho Chi Minh in anything other than contempt are dupes, witting or not, of a murderous school of thought--one that, while in retreat around the world, still has many adherents. A thought-provoking work of history and social criticism, The Black Book of Communism fully merits the broadest possible readership and discussion. --Gregory McNamee
