The most comprehensive and revealing investigation of Stalinism and political developments in the Soviet Union from 19221953, this edition is an extensively revised and expanded version of a classic work. The internationally known historian Roy Medvedev has included more than onehundred new interviews, unpublished memoirs, and archives from survivors of Stalins death camps. This updated version of a classic work was written during a time of great change in the Soviet Union. With the advent of perestroika and glasnost, more progressive leadership has sought to demolish the Stalinist system which had finally crippled the Soviet Union and incited public discontent.Let History Judge contains new material on purges in 19291931 and terror against the peasantry; the Kirov assasination and show trials; the great terror from 19361938, which caused irreparable damage to the Soviet Union and left it vulnerable for Hilters attack in 1941; the trial of Bukharin; Trotskys revolutionary activity and Stalins involvement with his murder in Mexico; Stalins miscalculations and errors during the war, which cost the Soviet Union nearly 25 million in casualties; new purges from 19461953; and the actual vote of the Seventeenth Congress, which decided Stalins candidacy.Since the first edition was finished by the author in 1969 and published in 1971, dozens of new informants have come forward to give their evidence to Roy Medvedev. Distinguished Soviet literary, cultural, and political figures like the late Alexander Twardovsky, Ilja Ehrenburg, Konstantin Simonov, Yuri Trifono, Mikhail Romm and many others have accumulated documentary records of Stalinism in anticipation of an expanded version.
