Hungary-Yugoslavia-USSR: The condemnation of
Soviet Marxism by Eastern Europe's foremost living
Marxist philosopher will embarrass the Hungarian
regime and may become another issue in Soviet-Yugo-
slav relations.
The Yugoslav party daily Borba published an in-
terview with Gyorgy Lukacs in its 29 December and
1-2 January editions. Hungary's Lukacs blasted the
Soviets for continuing distortions of Marxism and
called for a "Marxist renewal" in all the Socialist
countries. He also said that French and Italian
workers would not want to live in the Soviets' un-
democratic system. Lukacs praised Tito's self-man-
agement system--anathema to the Soviets--as a con-
tribution to a resurgence of the basic idea of a
workers' democracy. The interview appeared just
after the Soviets published their Lenin Theses,
which contained criticism of the Yugoslav system.
The 85-year-old Lukacs has long been known as
an anti-Stalinist, but this is the first time he
has so openly linked current Soviet problems to Sta-
linist errors. Although he holds no official posi-
tions and has often been in trouble in the past, he
is a party member, and his attacks will be an embar-
rassment to party chief Radar. The Kadar regime may
choose to ignore the affair publicly, but it might
also have to face Soviet displeasure.
Yugoslav officials will also be concerned about
the interview. While they do not disagree with Lu-
kacs, they do not want Hungary's cautious liberal-
ization jeopardized by tighter Soviet controls.
When Yugoslav Foreign Minister Tepavac arrives in
Budapest on 12 January, he may well deny that the
interview had official sanction.
