Drawing on recently declassified material from Stalin’s personal archive in Moscow, this is the first attempt by scholars to systematically analyze the way Stalin interpreted and envisioned his world—both the Soviet system he was trying to build and its wider international context. Since Stalin rarely left his offices and perceived the world largely through the prism of verbal and written reports, meetings, articles, letters, and books, a comprehensive analysis of these materials provides a unique and valuable opportunity to study his way of thinking and his interaction with the outside world. Comparing the materials that Stalin read from week to week with the decisions that he subsequently shaped, Sarah Davies and James Harris show not only how Stalin perceived the world but also how he misperceived it. After considering the often far-reaching consequences of those misperceptions, they investigate Stalin’s contribution to the production and regulation of official verbal discourse in a system in which huge political importance was attached to the correct use of words and phrases..

Popular Opinion in Stalin's Russia: Terror, Propaganda and Dissent, 1934–1941

Between 1934 and 1941 Stalin unleashed what came to be known as "The Great Terror" against millions of Soviet citizens. This book is a study of how ordinary Russians experienced life during this period. Sarah Davies' study uses NKVD and Party reports, letters and other evidence to show that, despite propaganda and repression, the people continued to criticize Stalin and the Soviet regime, and complain about particular policies. This book sheds light on a hugely important part of Russia's social, political and cultural history.

Insight into Action (IIA)

Are you familiar with an aching, inner emptiness that is never satisfied; a huge black hole lurking just beneath the surface that in your lowest moments will suck you down into a bottomless pit of despair; a hole that you do your best to fill with food, alcohol, drugs, sex? Do you have a habit of flitting from one relationship to another constantly searching for love? Or is shopping your addiction of choice? Perhaps you have no obvious problems but a generalised awareness of things being not quite right, a vague unease from which you manage to distract yourself by keeping busy. Do relationships work out the way you would like them to? Are you happy? If life is less than perfect, then this is a place to start and put things right. In this easily accessible book, Sarah Davies suggests a cause of this problem and leads us through the healing process.
