Generation Stalin traces Joseph Stalin's rise as a dominant figure
in French political culture from the 1930s through the 1950s.
Andrew Sobanet brings to light the crucial role French writers
played in building Stalin's cult of personality and in
disseminating Stalinist propaganda in the international Communist
sphere, including within the USSR. Based on a wide array of
sources-literary, cinematic, historical, and archival-Generation
Stalin situates in a broad cultural context the work of the most
prominent intellectuals affiliated with the French Communist Party,
including Goncourt winner Henri Barbusse, Nobel laureate Romain
Rolland, renowned poet Paul Eluard, and canonical literary figure
Louis Aragon. Generation Stalin arrives at a pivotal moment, with
the Stalin cult and elements of Stalinist ideology resurgent in
twenty-first-century Russia and authoritarianism on the rise around
the world.
