Highly commended, it's only about 17 pages of a 22-page PDF, and comes from 1961. Read it. The first 2 paras of the Foreword will say why.

Words are only as good as their definitions. Our greatest disappointments and defeats in the last 15 years have come to a great extent because the representatives of the free world have tended to define communist words with a Western dictionary.

For example, we in the free world have rightfully regarded the word "peace" as meaning a situation where nations exist side by side with mutual respect and without hostility. But representatives of the West have wrongly assumed that the Communists accept our meaning of this and many other terms. As Dr. Stefan Possony points out in this study, the Communist definition of "peace" means the time when there will no longer be any opposition to the paramount aim of bringing the entire world under communism.
