Stalin as a theorist. Trushkov V.V.

The book of the Political Observer of Pravda, Doctor of Philosophy, Professor V.V. Trushkova is one of the rare attempts to analyze the theoretical views of I.V. Stalin. A huge number of works containing conflicting assessments of his activities have been written about it; In their center is Stalin-underpower, an active participant in October 1917, a civil war, a leading character in intra-party confrontations, the supreme commander in chief, political and statesman. At the same time, the theoretical work of Stalin is very poorly represented in them. Yes, he was primarily a practitioner, but never suffered from narrow empiricism. His practical activity was based on serious theoretical developments. However, Stalin as a theorist is little known, and for a significant part of the readers it is simply unknown.

The proposed work is concentrated precisely on the theoretical side of Stalin’s work, considered on a wide background of historical events. Moreover, the author proceeds from the fact that it has serious methodological significance and is very relevant in the modern labor struggle against capital.

The book is addressed to a wide range of readers who are interested in the political history of our country, especially theoretical issues of the October Revolution of 1917 and socialist construction in the Soviet Union.
