2007IL POLITBJURO STALINIANO NEGLI ANNI TRENTA RACCOLTA DI DOCUMENTI A CURA DI O. V. CHLEVNJUK A. V. KVASONIN L. P. KOSELEVA. L. A. ROGOVAJA CITTà DEL SOLE 2007 385 PP. FONDO DI MAGAZZINO: PARI AL NUOVO. Nel volume sono raccolti documenti e materiali sull'attività del Politbjuro del CVK della VKP(B) negli anni 1930-1940. Dokumenty sovetskoj istorii è la principale serie documentaria di storia sovietica oggi esistente al mondo, e il favore con cui la comunità scientifica ha accolto i suoi volumi è testimoniato da recensioni apparse sulle principali riviste specializzate in Russia come negli Stati Uniti, in Germania come in Francia o nel Regno Unito. Il primo dei dieci volumi (più uno fuori serie), già stampati in lingua russa, viene ora proposto agli studiosi italiani e occidentali. Il progetto ha dato vita a un lavoro collettivo, portato avanti da studiosi russi e occidentali, che ha sfruttato l'opportunità offerta dall'apertura degli archivi ex-sovietici per aprire nuovi orizzonti alla ricerca e allo studio di un pezzo fondamentale della storia europea senza conoscere il quale è impossibile affrontare il presente e il futuro politici del nostro continente. Ad esso hanno aderito ufficialmente tutti i maggiori archivi russi, e singoli volumi sono stati preparati grazie all'appoggio di Istituzioni come le Università di Harvard e Tübingen, l'United Kingdom Economic and Social Research Council, il National Endowment for Humanities e il progetto INTAS dell'Unione europea "Critical Editing of Sources for the Study of Soviet History and Society". Soggetti: Storia contemporanea, Comunismo, Stalinismo, Unione Sovietica, Russia, Terrore, Repressione, Crimini, Gulag, PCUS, Partoti comunista sovietico, Documentari, Indagini, Inchieste, Storiografia, Archivi, Ricerca, Totalitarismo, Novecento, Collettivizzazione, Grande Terrore, Kulaki, Ucraina, Stalinskoe politbjuro v 30-e gody, Ufficio politico, Sovet ministrov SSSR, Servizi segreti, Polizia, Apparati, Sistema, Regime, Politica, école des Hautes études en science sociales, Social sciences, Sedute, Cremlino, Marxismo, Organi, Studi storici, Dittature, Stalinismo, Politiceskoe bjuro, Comitato Centrale, Membri, CK; KPSS, Oblast' di Leningrado, RSFSR, KGB, Soviet Supremo, Presidium, Bubnov, Zinov'ev, Kamenev, Lenin, Stalin, Trockij, Trotsky, Lev Kamenev, Grigorij Sokol'nikov, Nikolaj Bucharin, Grigorij Zinov'ev, Nikolaj Bucharin, Molotov, Kalinin, Anastas Mikojan, Sergej Kirov, Kaganovic, Zdanov, Andreev, Berija, Aleksej Kosygin, Nikolaj Bulganin, Malenkov, Kalinin, Kruscev, Crushev, Breznev, Chrushov, Suslov, Prezidiuma, Kommunisticeskoj partii, Central'nogo Komiteta, NKVD, NEP, Contemporary History, Communism, Stalinism, Soviet Union, Russia, Terror, Repression, Crimes, Gulag, PCUS, Soviet Communist Parties, Documentaries, Investigations, Investigations, Historiography, Archives, Research, Totalitarianism, Twentieth Century, Collectivization, Great Terror, Kulaki, Ukraine, Political Bureau, Secret Service, Police, Apparatus, System, Scheme, Politics, école des Hautes études en science sociales, Sessions, Kremlin, Marxism, Bodies, Historical Studies, Dictatorship, Stalinism, Central Committee, Members, Leningrad Oblast, Supreme Soviet, Praesidium, Libri Vintage Fuori catalogo, Collezionismo, Documenti storici, Ideologie politiche, Archivistica, Raccolte, Reportage, Giornalismo scientifico di inchiesta, Successi editoriali, Libri rari, Studi culturali, Antologie documentarie, Fonti storiche, Elenchi, Risoluzioni, Decisioni, Leggi, Cronache, Rosspen, Delazioni, Dirigenza bolscevica, Consiglio dei ministri, NEP, Politica economica, Destalinizzazione, Registri, Capi, Richieste, Delibere, Spese, Quadri di partito, Protocolli, Plenum, Out of print books, Collectibles, Historical documents, Political ideologies, Archives, Collections, Scientific investigative journalism, Editorial successes, Rare books, Cultural studies, Documentary anthologies, Historical sources, Lists, Resolutions, Decisions, Laws, Chronicles, Delations, Bolshevik leadership, Council of ministers, Economic policy, De-Stalinization, Registers, Heads, Requests, Resolutions, Expenses, Party cadres, Protocols, Anni Trenta, Thirties
