By Colleen Pohitg
Emerald Associate Editor
Citizens of the former Soviet Union are
about to learn a lesson in what democracy Is
not: the Oregon Citizens Alliance, says a
University geography professor.
Konaid Wixman, a Soviet specialist on
communism and totalitarian states, was re
cently askod by ' Voice of America." a U S.
organization that broadcasts daily to the for
mer Soviet Union and eastern Europe on
political issues, to record a tape about Ballot
Measure 8 In relation to democracy.
Wixman plans to record the program from
Eugene at the end of this week.
"We re trying to teach Soviets about de
mocracy und the democratic process,
Wixman suid "I'm doing this because the
OCA is viewed by many in the U S us ex
actly opposite of what we see democracy us
being.
“Therefore, (the (X .A) is going to be used
as an example to the PSU of whut not to
do," ho said.
Wixman said (XiA members are u "far cry
from American democratic conservatism
and a fnr cry from most traditional forms of
Christianity."
The (X:A labels itself as traditional. Chris
tian and conservative, which Wixman said
it is not, and that it has distorted the mean
ings of the wonis.
"The OCA is not tied to traditional Amer
ican conservatism that stems from Jofforso
niun conservative principles." ho said. "It is
extremist and radical and should tie soon as
such The self-labeling as conservative is a
Joke,"
Wixman said thul although he lieliovos
the labeling is wrong, ho bo 11 eves the tactic
is working.
"It's ugly and effective, but it works lie
cause it plays on people's fours and preju
dices," he said.
In the tupo. Wixman is going to explain
how the (X1A does not display democracy
in several ways, ono of which Includes tho
uso of tho term "special rights" In the placo
