Stalin's Industrial Revolution by Hiroaki Kuromiya
This is the first detailed political and social history in English of Stalin's industrial revolution during the first Five-Year Plan. The diversion of vast resources into industrialization severely squeezed national consumption, imposing a heavy burden and sacrifice on the entire nation.
'The author vividly conveys the political and social atmosphere of this tumultuous period, not through the eyes of a foreign correspondent, but as participants recorded it' Journal of Economic History
'Kuromiya's scholarship is impressive and his argument strong … By examining the links between high politics, mass ideology and proletarian society, Kuromiya has managed to produce a balanced and thoughtful account of this important period in Soviet history.' The Times Literary Supplement
