Stephen Kotkin, a world-renowned historian and professor at Princeton University (USA), has made a successful attempt to write a comprehensive history of the entire Stalinist regime and its impact on Eurasia and the rest of the world. You are holding in your hands the first of three volumes of this work, Paradoxes of Power. To understand who Stalin was, what he did not do, and what he did do, how he did it, Kotkin examines the world into which Stalin was born and in whose development he subsequently played such a significant role. The first volume examines the history of Stalin’s life and work from his birth to 1928, when he made a choice that determined the further development of the country. Kotkin is convinced that no one in history has possessed or wielded more power than Stalin. But the paradox is that the more personal power he received, the more power he needed to overcome the consequences of his own rule.
