The Soviet Union, Finland and the Cold War : The Finnish Card in Soviet Foreign Policy, 1956-1959

From the Soviet point of view the actual substance of Soviet-Finnish relations in the second half of 1950s clearly differed from the contemporary and later public image, based on friendship and confidence rhetoric. As the polarization between the right and the left became more underlined in Finland in the latter half of the 1950s, the criticism towards the Soviet Union became stronger, and the USSR feared that this development would have influence on Finnish foreign policy. From the Soviet point of view, the security commitments of FCMA-treaty needed additional guarantees through control of Finnish domestic politics and economic relations, especially during international crises. In relation to Scandinavia, Finland was, from the Soviet point of view, the model country of friendship or neutrality policy. The influence of the Second Berlin Crisis or the Soviet-Finnish Night Frost Crisis in 1958-1959 to Soviet policy towards Scandinavia needs to be observed from this point of view. The Soviet Union used Finland as a tool, in agreement with Finnish highest political leadership, for weakening of the NATO membership of Norway and Denmark, and for maintaining Swedish non-alliance. The Finnish interest to EFTA membership in the summer of 1959, at the same time with the Scandinavian countries, seems to have caused a panic reaction in the USSR, as the Soviets feared that these economic arrangements would reverse the political advantages the country had received in Finland after the Night Frost Crisis. Together with history of events, this study observes the interaction of practical interests and ideologies, both in individuals and in decision-making organizations. The necessary social and ideological reforms in the Soviet Union after 1956 had influence both on the legitimacy of the regime, and led to contradictions in the argumentation of Soviet foreign policy. This was observed both in the own camp as well as in the West. Also, in Finland a breakthrough took place in the late 1950's: as the so-called counter reaction lost to the K-line, "a special relationship" developed with the Soviet Union. As a consequence of the Night Frost Crisis the Soviet relationship became a factor decisively defining the limits of domestic politics in Finland, a part of Finnish domestic political argumentation. Understood from this basis, finlandization is not, even from the viewpoint of international relations, a special case, but a domestic political culture formed by the relationship between a dominant state, a superpower, and a subordinate state, Finland.

Caracterización y evaluación de siete genotipos de frijol común grano color rojo (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) en la Estación Experimental La Compañía, Carazo, 2004-2005

El presente ensayo se realizó en el centro experimental La Compañía, San Marcos Departamento de Carazo, Nicaragua en la época de primera (junio–agosto del 2004), con el fín de caracterizar y evaluar el comportamiento de 7 genotipos de frijol rojo, proporcionadas por el Programa Internacional de Viveros de Adaptación y Rendimiento, del Centro Internacional de Agricultura Tropical (CIAT) , en coordinación con el Instituto Nicaragüense de Tecnología Agropecuaria (INTA). Fue establecido un diseño de bloques completamente al azar con tres repeticiones; el tamaño de la muestra fue de 10 plantas para caracteres cuantitativos y para los cualitativos se basó en el aspecto de predominancia de caracteres. Se realizó el análisis de varianza y la separación de medias por Tukey al 95% de confianza para las variables del rendimiento y sus componentes; así como la media, desviación estándar y coeficiente de variación para caracteres relacionados al desarrollo y crecimiento. Fueron evaluados 18 caracteres cuantitativos y 15 cu alitativos. De acuerdo con los resultados la semilla se clasificó como pequeña, con forma ovoidea, alargada ovoidea y arriñonada recta en el lado del hilo, esta última con mayor frecuencia; el grano presentó color, rojo claro con testa brillante y rojo marrón oscuro con testa intermedio, predominan do el color rojo claro con testa brillante. Los análisis estadísticos indican que solo dos genotipos difirieron estadísticamente en cuanto al rendimiento, obteniendo el mayor valor el SRC 1-12-1-43 con 2203.9 kg ha -1 , no mostrando diferencias estadísticas las demás variables relacionadas. Todos los genotipos mostraron hábito de crecimiento arbustivo indeterminado (IIb). Respecto a las variables fenológicas se observaron rangos de 36 a 38 dds para el número de días a floración, los días a madurez fisiológica oscilaron entre 62 y 68 dds y los días a cosecha entre 66 y 72 dds, ubicándose de esta manera como materiales precoces. Todos los materiales presentaron daños de las enfermedades mustia hilachosa ( Thanatephorus cucumeris Frank) y mancha angular ( Isariopsis griseola Sacc) con niveles de severidad intermedia con excepción de los genotipos SRC 1-12-1-43 y MPN 103-25, que mostraron susceptibilidad a la mustia hilachosa; sin embargo estos alcanzaron los mayores rendimientos.
