Stalin's Industrial Revolution : Politics and Workers, 1928–1931

Omtale

This is the first political and social history in English of Stalin's industrial revolution during the first Five-Year Plan, 1928–1932. Dr Kuromiya argues that Stalin and his advisers made industrialization politically possible by presenting it as a 'class war', mercilessly suppressing those suspected as 'class enemies' and 'wreckers' and seeking the support of industrial workers.
