This has been labelled "The Contemporary World Crisis." Also included are: multiple drafts of several shorter pieces on political-historical subjects; a few such pieces included in a single version only; a number of reports written to be delivered at emigre political congresses, chiefly those of the All-Russian National Union (Rossiĭskoe Nat︠s︡ionalńoe Obe̋dinenie); and some notes and jottings.
