Georg von Rauch, a distinguished German historian and specialist in Eastern European affairs, chronicles the dramatic political, economic, and social transformations that reshaped Russia under communist rule, drawing on an impressive command of primary and secondary sources. The narrative traces the turbulent reigns of Lenin and Stalin, the brutal collectivisation campaigns, the purges, and the emergence of the USSR as a global superpower with unflinching analytical clarity. Written with scholarly precision yet accessible to the general reader, this fifth revised edition remains an indispensable reference for anyone seeking to understand the ideological forces and historical events that defined the Soviet century.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48888009425115,"sku":"2026200009459-SECONDHAND","price":12.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/c44ddb01-e9d2-49b7-ac6e-1cd485e56df5.png?v=1781752478","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200009459-secondhand-a-history-of-soviet-russia","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
