Talk:Pitirim Sorokin

Untitled
In his Leaves From a Russian Diary, Sorokin states that the Checka in his home city of Petrograd intended to execute him. Sorokin surrendered himself to the Cheka in Moscow. The Checka in Moscow mistakenly presumed that the "exile" option for University political prisoners applied to Sorokin. Sorokin used this confusion on the Moscow Checka's part to get visas and licenses to leave Russia directly from Moscow without returning to Petrograd, where Grigory Zinoviev, who did not recognize the "exile option" Trotsky advertised, planned to execute Sorokin. After Sorokin's escape the Moscow Cheka offcial and Foreign Ministry official ,who inadvertently aided his flight, were "censured".

 * In the article, one of the books on Sorokin attributed to Nieli, Russell, is actually listed by the Library of Congress as a book by Sorokin himself.JDPhD (talk) 19:10, 29 July 2010 (UTC)

Do I have to merge itself own article with article "Pitirim Sorokin"? I am ready to make it. But my article "Sociology of Revolution" has too large volume. I am ready to add in the article "Pitirim Sorokin" a statement of the contents of Sorokin's book "Social and Cultural Mobility" even. These two theories of Sorokin are great theories which are underestimated in the American sociology. For example, there is no mention of these theories and name of Sorokin in modern American textbooks on sociology of such authors, as Neil Smelser and John J. Macionis. Do Americans respect Sorokin or not? Though Sorokin was the President of the American Sociological Association. In my opinion, Sorokin's third theory (Socio-cultural dynamics) is a delirium therefore I don't want to state this third theory of Sorokin in the article "Pitirim Sorokin". If you consider that my style of compositions is bad, that you need to look for other author who will be able to improve my bad style as I know English badly and I cann't improve my style.Valery Staricov (talk) 11:34, 23 November 2013 (UTC)
