Stalin's Special Settlements
DESCRIPTION
COPY LINK: https://pdf.bookcenterapp.com/yumpu/0195385098 One of Stalin's most heinous acts
was the ruthless repression of millions of peasants in the early 1930s, an act that established the
very foundations of the gulag. Solzhenitsyn barely touched upon this brutal episode in his
magisterial Gulag Archipelago and subsequent writers passed over the subject in silence. Now,
with the opening of Soviet archives, an entirely new dimension of Stalin's brutality has been
uncovered. The Unknown Gulag is the first book in English to explore this untold story. Historian
Lynne Viola reveals how, in one of the most egregious episodes of Soviet repression, Stalin drove
two million peasants into internal exile, to work as forced laborers. The book shows how entire
families were callously thrown out of their homes, banished from their villages, and sent to the icy
hinterlands of the Soviet Union, where in the course of a decade, almost a half million would die as
a result of disease, starvation, or exhaustion. Drawing on pioneering research in the previously
closed archives of the central and provincial Communist Party, the Soviet state, and the secret
police, Viola documents the history of this tragic episode. She delves into what long remained an
entirely hidden world within the gulag, throwing new light on Stalin's consolidation of power, the
rise of the secret police as a state within the state, and the complex workings of the Soviet system.
But first and foremost, she movingly captures the day-to-day life of Stalin's first victims, tellingthe
stories of the peasant families who experienced one of the twentieth century's most horrific
instances of mass repression. A compelling story of human suffering and survival in Stalin's Soviet
Union, here is a new chapter in the history of the gulag, virtually hidden from sight until now.
