How Did Lenin Contribute To Russia

203 Words1 Page

Lenin is suspicious of us in Russia as he sent 120,000 Russians to help with our relief work. I’m supervising 16,000 Russians in 900 kitchens we set up in Samara. I’m happy to say we ‘re achieving beyond our goal as Russian adults are now being fed and we’ve been supplied of a lot of grains that arrived on 6th February in Novorossiysk. A colleague of mine David Kinne was dismissed as Lenin’s CHEKA agents exploited his alcohol addiction in February 1922. I see Lenin’s motive and that is to try and hinder our work. Because of Kinne’s absence in Saratov, the Bolsheviks have taken over there and diverted the supplies to their political allies. I’ve had enough of Lenin sabotaging our operations. This is very selfish of him as he’s letting people

  • Review Of 800 Days On The Eastern Front

    1331 Words  | 6 Pages

    Litvin illustrated one of the numerous examples of Soviet nationalism when he discussed how the military collected food from the collective farms. Litvin Claims, “Times were very difficult for the people in these regions because land had been devastated by war… the army did not have to seize food from the peasants—Soviet authority engaged in this.” The above passage paints the Soviets’ handling of peasants in a positive light and does nothing to ponder the impact that collectivization had on agriculture in the country. Certainly, the harsh occupation by the Germans did not help the agriculture production, but the relentless collectivization of farming ruined the efficiency of agriculture in the Soviet Union. However, Litvin in no way paints Stalin in a negative light, but rather boasts about how Soviet authorities procured agriculture goods from peasants.

    Therefore, his paranoia was important in generating more rapid change than anyone had thought possible. As an individual, Khrushchev managed to reverse the social changes of Stalin that had repressed Russia. Oxley’s convincing argument that de-Stalinization would enable Russia to “set a new course” to reform “industry and agriculture” shows how Khrushchev created a backlash against Stalin to ease the repression that was stunting Russia, both nationally and internationally. Khrushchev’s secret speech enabled him to distance himself from Stalin’s terror and drive reform. Khrushchev was pushed to this by his political opposition Malenkov, therefore opposition is a more important factor than the individual in de-Stalinization.

    Stalin’s iron fist totalitarian leadership is often viewed with negative connotations by historians today, although many of his policies advanced the Soviet Union at a rapid rate to become the United State’s primary competition in the years following his death. The use of five year plans by Stalin caused for many people to parish due to the all or nothing mentality put forward by him, causing for the U.S.S.R’s achievements to be reviewed in the future by historians as ruthless and questioned if the brutality used by Stalin was necessary. During his reign as leader, Stalin caused for the people of rural Russia to live lives filled with famine and immense abuse when they failed to hit quotas set out by the government in an effort to feed the

Some people, of course, response to Khrushchev’s speech: “You want to weep with despair when you hear people demand that all this be consigned to oblivion, people who try to justify Stalin’s crimes and sing his praises whenever they can.” (Riordan&Bridger 31) “Even before I never understood and I condemned those young people who had parted ways with their parents when the latter were arrested, so why am I now being called upon to betray my commander and to spit on him?” (33) Instead of supporting Stalin, this WWII veteran is confused by the shift in ideologies. He represented many average Soviet people, the confusion and hopelessness.

  • The Czar's Role In Bloody Sunday In Russia

    961 Words  | 4 Pages

    The infamous actions on Bloody Sunday had been set in stone. There was no changing the fact that thousands of workers had marched peacefully to the Winter Palace to deliver their petition for reformed working conditions, which had ultimately left many killed by the Russian military. However, it was the changing perspectives in the 1900s and the present day that illustrate how dynamic the event truly was. By analyzing what Bloody Sunday meant politically to the Russian populace, the major political figure of the country, and foreign nations, it seems evident that the event had once been understood as a failed event that ended in tragedy. Nonetheless, the event was now regarded well and a method towards revolution, and the newly positive perspective ultimately revealed how time has diminished the true tragedy of Bloody Sunday.

Somov was a Russian Soviet who shared his emotions on his overwhelming experience in the demanding Soviet working class. At a protest, he wrote that there was a “...mystical, religious ecstasy...” that peppered the angry workers who fought for their freedom from the exhausting chains of overwhelming labor and inhumane working conditions (Document 4). He added that the working class was deprived of a lively human soul, and their bitterness and dissatisfaction had “overflowed.” Somov was a worker himself, who first hand experienced the cruelty described and developed his own reasonable emotions towards the topic.

The Russian Empire of the Romanovs was one of the largest in the history of the world, and experienced the implementation of one of the most sophisticated systems of government and civil service, one of the fastest and most far-reaching expansions of national infrastructure, and one of the most feared military forces of the time. Yet by the time of the outbreak of the Russian revolution in February of 1917, the idea of uprising had seemed rather obvious to those both inside and outside of Russia’s
