Template talk:Fall of Communism
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] Title
I am not comfortable with the title of this template.
Communism didn't fall. It is an ideology, which is still supported by many people around the world. Communist parties are represented in many parliaments. Parties that call themselves "communist", or something close to that, rule in North Korea, Cuba, Vietnam, China, Kerala, Moldova and other countries (they are very different from each other, of course).
What fell in the early 1990's is the Soviet bloc. So i propose to rename this template to "Fall of the Soviet bloc", or "the Eastern bloc" or something in that vein. --Amir E. Aharoni (talk) 20:20, 20 June 2009 (UTC)
