In this groundbreaking book, prominent Western and Russian scholars
examine the "lost" transcripts of the Soviet Politburo, a set of
verbatim accounts of meetings that took place from the 1920s to
1938 but remained hidden in secret archives until the late 1990s.
Never intended for publication or wide distribution, these records
(known as stenograms in Russia) reveal the actual process of
decision making at the highest levels of the Soviet communist
party. The transcripts also provide new, first-hand records of the
rise of Stalin's dictatorship. The contributors to the volume
explore the power struggles among the Politburo members, their
methods of discourse and propaganda, and their economic policies.
Taken as a whole, the essays shed light on early Soviet history and
on the individuals who supported or opposed Stalin's consolidation
of power.
