MIM Theory #6 The Stalin Issue

MIM reviews some of the most influential anti-Stalin biographies. Anti-communist propagandists around the world opened up new offensives against Josef Stalin in 1985 when Mikhail Gorbachev came to power and introduced glasnost, and in 1991 when the state capitalist Soviet Union fell apart. The attacks on Stalin, leader of the Soviet Union from 1924 to 1953 when it was a socialist country, are often ostensibly based on new evidence -- documents previously held in secret Soviet government archives.
