Stalin. An Unthinkable Fate
19.99 €
Every cultured person in Russia and abroad has "his Stalin". It is still impossible to treat this person calmly, as, for example, to the Englishman Cromwell or the Frenchman Robespierre. Or even Peter the Great. However, the Soviet "Red Project" is inextricably linked to Stalin, just as the building of the Russian Empire - with Peter. Stalin, in Churchill's words, "was adequate to his time." Starting as a democrat, heir to the European liberal tradition, he became a revolutionary Marxist, a brave and ruthless fighter for the liberation of mankind from social injustice, and leading the Soviet Union, abandoned the idea of world revolution and carried out an unprecedented in history modernization. He did not stop before repressions against dissenters, became the military leader of the USSR during the attack of Hitler's Germany and at the end of his unthinkably dramatic life came to the conclusion that it was necessary to turn to a market economy. As China is considered in modern times, he theorized what has come to be known as the "Chinese Way." This book is a sequel to Svyatoslav and Ekaterina Rybasov's two-volume book "Stalin. Fate and Strategy" (2007).
