"Masterfully told and compelling reinterpreted." The Moscow Times
Stalinism at War tells the epic story of the Soviet Union in World
War Two. Starting with Soviet involvement in the war in Asia and
ending with a bloody counter-insurgency in the borderlands of
Ukraine, Belarus and the Baltics, the Soviet Union’s war was both
considerably longer and more all-encompassing than is sometimes
appreciated. Here, acclaimed scholar Mark Edele explores the
complex experiences of both ordinary and extraordinary citizens –
Russians and Koreans, Ukrainians and Jews, Lithuanians and
Georgians, men and women, loyal Stalinists and critics of his
regime – to reveal how the Soviet Union and leadership of a
ruthless dictator propelled Allied victory over Germany and Japan.
In doing so, Edele weaves together material on the society and
culture of the wartime years with high-level politics and unites
the military, economic and political history of the Soviet Union
with broader popular histories from below. The result is an
engaging, intelligent and authoritative account of the Soviet Union
from 1937 to 1949.
