world system. The author stresses Hungary’s support for the peaceful aims of the foreign policy of India and for the just struggle of the peoples of the Arab countries, underlining the importance of exploring further possibilities for cooperation with the developing world. The foreign policy of the Hungarian People’s Republic has been succesfull in promoting the realization of the resolutions passed by 10th Congress of the Hungarian Socialist Worker’s Party.

N. Inozemcev: Socialism and International Relations The article delas with the profound changes that have been brought about in the world economy and in international relations by the advance of socialism. The capitalist mode of production, characterized by a growing national and international distribution of labour, led to the creation of a capitalist world economy and a capitalist world market at the end of the last century. Through exploitation and imperialism, however, some countries managed to rob and to subjugate others. Since the victory of the Great October Socialist Revolution, which shattered the monopoly of imperialism in the world economy, the course of history has been increasingly determinded by „the struggle of two modes of production, two formations, two economies — the communist economy and the capitalist economy” (Lenin). The strengthening of socialism has guaranteed the healthy development of the world exonomy. The socialist countries have developed economic cooperation among themselves on the basis of socialist internationalism, equality, mutual benefits and mutual fraternal assistance. The developing countries have had a chance to break free from the system of unequal economic relations Mutually advantageous economic cooperation between the socialist and the capitalist countries serves the interests of all mankind and the future advance of socialism. World socialism has introduced new principles of foreign policy into international relations. Relations of a new type have developed between the countries of the socialist community and a process of democratization has been initiated in the system of international relations. It has become possible to solve the most pressing international problems in the best interests of the peoples. The author evaluates the importance of the assistance rendered by the socialist world system to the developing world and the extension of the norms of peaceful coexistence in relations between socialist and capitalist countries. The change from the cold war to international détente has been due to the strengthening of socialism and the sweeping social and economic processes that have gained impetus under its impact all over the world. The peace programme that has been adopted by the 24th Congress of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union and is being succesfully implemented expresses both the deep changes that have occurred and the long-range interests of all humanity. Ottó Sütő: On the Institutionalization of European Security and Cooperation One of the most important objectives of the foreign policy strategy of the European socialist countries and a real necessity for Europe and the world today is the establishment of a European system of security and cooperation. The proper conditions and possibilities for the creation of this system exist or are maturing. The European policy of security and cooperation sets out to make these possibilities a reality in line with the best interests of the world and of Europe. The creation of a European system of security and cooperation will obviously be a lengthy and complicated process. The main objectives of the European policy of security and cooperation cannot be totally realized within the present system of bilateral and multilateral relations. IV
