The objective of this article is to situate the political regime in Addis Ababa within the Stalinist framework with a view to focussing its salient peculiarities and the way these impact upon its "socialist" strategy. The description and analysis revolves essentially around three major elements: the power structure, the major political goals and the instruments of action. (DÜI-Hns)

The current mode of life in Russia combines the features of desperately daring steps in geopolitical domain with an amazing shyness of thought when facing the tiniest changes in theoretical constructs. Today, crowds of laymen, officials and many "learned" dignitaries in the West and in the East face the need to reject the prejudices concocted using dirty data techniques. The time has come to release Stalin from the Nazi captivity and to reinstate his Membership within the Great Triplett of Roosevelt Stalin Churchill. The call for serious changes in the theoretical constructs has become a vital demand for the survival of mankind. Both the West and Russia have to act urgently. Periculum in mora. As of today, having been brought to bay, the correct estimation of the genuinely large merits by Stalin before Motherland and Humanity is popping up irresistibly, as if it were a moth piercing through the pupa, dumping as a useless shell the prejudices like "Stalin equals Hitler". This concerns primarily the evolution of the shy Stalinism by Putin. The time has come to update the judgments on Stalin at the governmental level. The bigotry by Brzezinski is to be terminated. The Destiny of Russia is at stake.

This article examines the early transition from Stalinism to post-Stalinism, to expose the hesitations & difficulties that attended the Soviet leadership's initial attempts to deal with the Stalinist past. 'De-Stalinization' began almost immediately after Stalin's death, as the post-Stalinist regime attempted to reduce Stalin's charismatic power & to increase its own legitimacy, through undermining Stalinist thinking (which had dominated every policy domain) & through reducing the influence of the Stalin cult on Soviet public life. However, efforts to dismantle the mythologies surrounding Stalin did not begin in earnest until 1956. The initial attempts at radical de-Stalinization (Khrushchev's 'Secret Speech') are shown as unsuccessful, since they generated significant resistance & provoked an unprecedented diversity of public response. To achieve greater consensus & control over the 'Stalin question,' the Soviet authorities instead had to propagate a more moderate & ambiguous image of Stalin & Stalinism, which necessitated a hesitant approach to the symbols of the cult. The paradoxes of Stalin's public image during de-Stalinization in 1956 are exemplified through case studies of Soviet education & political symbolism. This article is based on doctoral research carried out in a number of state & Party archives at the central (Moscow) & local (Volgograd, Moscow) levels, using materials declassified as late as the latter half of the 1990s. Adapted from the source document.

REFLECTING ON STALINISM. FOR TEACHER OF HISTORY
In: Issues in historiography
Debates on Stalinism introduces major debates about Stalinism during and after the Cold War. Did 'Stalinism' form a system in its own right or was it a mere stage in the overall development of Soviet society? Was it an aberration from Leninism or the logical conclusion of Marxism? Was its violence the revenge of the Russian past or the result of a revolutionary mindset? Was Stalinism the work of a madman or the product of social forces beyond his control? The book shows the complexities of historiographical debates, where evidence, politics, personality, and biography are strongly entangled. Debates on Stalinism allows readers to better understand not only the history of history writing, but also contemporary controversies and conflicts in the successor states of the Soviet Union, in particular Russia and Ukraine.
