Why isn't communism really communism?
True communism isn't practiced by a major power anywhere in the world today. Instead, the politico-economic system currently practiced by China (and which used to be employed by the Soviet Union) is called socialism.
A very simplified explanation of the difference is that socialism is set up and controlled by a central government, whereas communism is controlled and maintained at the local (people) level. The only practical example of true communism can be found in the system known (appropriately enough) as a commune, similar to the kibbutz farming communities found in Israel.

What countries use defense diplomacy?
Defence diplomacy as an organizing concept originated with Western defence establishments, especially the UK Ministry of Defence, in the early post-Cold War period. It is generally understood as the peaceful application of different defence resources, including ship visits, military exercises, training and capacity-building as well as high-level interaction (e.g. at the Secretary/Minister of Defence level). Many countries employ defence diplomacy in support of their overall foreign policy; trying to build defence relationships that can further their current aims or that can be called upon in a crisis.
Today, aspects of defence diplomacy are employed by countries with very different philosophies and intentions -- China uses defence diplomacy, as do Russia, India, Brazil and of course major Western/NATO powers (USA, UK, Canada, Australia).
Defence diplomacy is distinct from "gunboat diplomacy", which is more intended to intimidate than to build relationships.

What is the view of Marxism by twentieth century political scientist Sidney Hook?
In a capsulized summary of Sidney Hook's view on Marxism, he makes it clear that the 1917 Bolshevik revolution was not directly tied to true Marxism. For Hook, Marx's thoughts, at its roots was essentially a product of Western European civilization. It was a blend of German classical philosophy, English economic theory, and French socialism. These ingredients were then blended into his own ideas concerning modern man and the aforementioned sources.His criticism of political democracy is that it is incomplete until its meaning is extended to other spheres of life, not simply political life. In the view of Sidney Hook, Marx wanted to extend it everywhere. Marx could not conceive socialism except under a democratic political form.
Sidney Hook's ideas have been debated and his views run counter to many other political thinkers. One thing is certain however, Marx would have never dreamed his name would be attached to the Bolshevik revolution of 1917.
What is the thesis in Max Weber's The three types of legitimate rule?
Weber put forth three possible reasons that leaders of a political system could use as a claim for legitimacy.
1. Tradition, or in the parlance of the ruled, "we've always done it this way".
2. Exceptional qualities of the leadership, or said another way, " We are heroic, inspirational, blessed by God." Or use some similar type reasons for deserving leadership.
3. Legality, such as " our constitution calls for continued leadership based on an electoral process that has been upheld by our highest courts". Basically anything they can place their hats on.
