Author: Antony C. Sutton
Publisher: Last Century Press

Category : History

Book Description
THIS is the first volume, time period 1917-1930, of an empirical study of the relationship between Western technology, entrepreneurship and the economic growth of the Soviet Union. By far the most significant factor in the development of the Soviet economy has been its absorption of Western technology and skills. The continuing transfer of skills and technology to the Soviet Union through the medium of foreign firms and engineers in the period 1917 to 1930 can only be characterized as extraordinary.

Author: Vladislav Martinovich Zubok
Publisher: Harvard University Press

Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 464
Book Description
Among the least-chronicled aspects of post-World War II European intellectual and cultural history is the story of the Russian intelligentsia after Stalin. Vladislav Zubok turns a compelling subject into a portrait as intimate as it is provocative. Zhivago's children, the spiritual heirs of Boris Pasternak's noble doctor, were the last of their kind - an intellectual and artistic community committed to a civic, cultural, and moral mission.

Language and Power in the Creation of the USSR, 1917-1953
Author: Michael G. Smith
Publisher: Walter de Gruyter
ISBN: 9783110161977
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 320
Book Description
Explores the cultural and ethnic aspects of the early Soviet era, focusing on the way the Bolsheviks and other groups used language. Covers the divided speech communities of the late imperial and early Soviet eras, how linguists contributed to Soviet cultural and national policies during the 1920s and 30s, the successes and failures of the major language reform projects during the 1920s, and the period between 1932 and 1953 when the party state imposed new standards of russification on the country as a whole. The author concludes that while the opportunities and constraints of language reform may have given Soviet leaders their most enduring insights into relations, they learned that language was an essential tool of the dialectical process of history and also a troublesome and treacherous dimension of the human experience.

Dictatorship, Fascism, and Totalitarianism
Author: Shalini Saxena
Publisher: The Rosen Publishing Group, Inc
ISBN: 162275350X
Category : Juvenile Nonfiction
Languages : en
Pages : 190
Book Description
Gaining momentum in the early decades of the 20th century, a number of fascist and other authoritarian regimes could be found around the world by the 1950s. Many persist into the present day. Often led by oppressive dictators, these regimes share many characteristics, though each differ in various ways as well. This volume examines the historical trajectory of dictatorship, fascism, and totalitarianism; their characteristics; where they intersected and how they differed; and some of the individuals—including Adolf Hitler and Benito Mussolini, among many others—infamous for violently imposing their often extreme agendas.
