Description
Stalin and Stalinism by Martin McCauley provides a concise assessment of one of the major figures of twentieth-century world history. This updated fourth edition explores how Joseph Stalin amassed, retained, and deployed power to dominate his associates, population, and the Soviet Empire. The book delves into Stalin's transformation from leader to autocrat and despot, playing a key role in shaping the first half of the twentieth century. It examines the enduring influence of Stalinism, including its adoption by countries such as China and Vietnam, and provides a chronology of key events, a Who's Who, and guide to further reading. With new publications drawn upon, this edition includes increased discussion on culture, religion, and the new society that Stalin fashioned, as well as more on spying, Stalin's legacy, and his character.
