À propos de cet audio

The definitive work on Stalin's purges, The Great Terror was universally acclaimed when it first appeared in 1968. While the original volume had relied heavily on unofficial sources, later developments within the Soviet Union provided an avalanche of new material, which Conquest has mined to write this revised and updated edition of his classic work.

Under the light of fresh evidence, it is remarkable how many of Conquest's most disturbing conclusions have been verified. Many details have also been added, including hitherto secret information on the three great "Moscow Trials", the purge of writers and other members of the intelligentsia, life in the labor camps, and many other key matters.

Both a leading Sovietologist and a highly respected poet, Conquest blends profound research with evocative prose to create a compelling and eloquent chronicle of one of the 20th century's most tragic events.

A very relevant read for our times.
The author does a great service to human kind, the Russian People AND all those that believe in Democracy. He methodically and unemotionally documents in great detail The Terror. He is comfortable saying what is not known.
I would advise all those to review briefly the Russian Revolution and the Organization of the Political Structure of USSR government before starting the book.
