Kotkinovy dějiny Magnitogorsku jsou monstrózní mikrohistorickou sondou do stalinské každodennosti. V polovině dvacátých let se kolem Magnetické hory rozkládala pustá step. O pár let později tu již stálo gigantické průmyslové centrum pulzující životem. Jak se to mohlo stát? Jací lidé se k tomuto místu vydali a budovali jej? A proč? A jak v krajině bičované mrazivými větry dokázali přežít a zabydlet se? Stephen Kotkin si všímá každičkého detailu životů magnitogorských obyvatel. Strašlivé zimy, vítr, nehygienické životní podmínky, tvrdá práce...

A magnificent new biography that revolutionizes our understanding of Stalin and his world The product of a decade of intrepid research, Stalin is a landmark achievement. Stephen Kotkin offers a biography that, at long last, is equal to this shrewd, sociopathic, charismatic dictator in all his dimensions. We see a man inclined to despotism who could be utterly charming; a pragmatic ideologue; a leader who obsessed over slights yet was a precocious geostrategic thinker--unique among Bolsheviks--and yet who made egregious strategic blunders. Through it all, we see Stalin's...A magnificent new biography that revolutionizes our understanding of Stalin and his world The product of a decade of intrepid research,... |

No one, not even Mikhail Gorbachev, anticipated what was in store when the Soviet Union embarked in the 1980s on a radical course of long-overdue structural reform. The consequences of that momentous decision, which set in motion a transformation eventually affecting the entire postwar world order, are here chronicled from inside a previously forbidden Soviet city, Magnitogorsk. Built under Stalin and championed by him as a showcase of socialism, the city remained closed to Western scrutiny until four years ago, when Stephen Kotkin became the first American to live there in nearly half a...

Uncivil Society: 1989 and the Implosion of the Communist Establishment
ISBN: 9780812966794 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) Twenty years ago, the Berlin Wall fell. In one of modern history's most miraculous occurrences, communism imploded-and not with a bang, but with a whimper. Now two of the foremost scholars of East European and Soviet affairs, Stephen Kotkin and Jan T. Gross, drawing upon two decades of reflection, revisit this crash. In a crisp, concise, unsentimental narrative, they employ three case studies-East Germany, Romania, and Poland-to illuminate what led Communist regimes to surrender, or to be swept away in political bank runs. This is less a story of dissidents, so-called civil society, than of...

Magnetic Mountain: Stalinism as a Civilization

This study is the first of its kind: a street-level inside account of what Stalinism meant to the masses of ordinary people who lived it. Stephen Kotkin was the first American in 45 years to be allowed into Magnitogorsk, a city built in response to Stalin's decision to transform the predominantly agricultural nation into a "country of metal." With unique access to previously untapped archives and interviews, Kotkin forges a vivid and compelling account of the impact of industrialization on a single urban community. Kotkin argues that Stalinism offered itself as an opportunity for...

W tej niewielkiej książce Joel Kotkin (ur. 1952), wykładający w Kalifornii amerykański demograf, urbanista i geograf, zawarł zdumiewające bogactwo syntetycznych informacji o siedmiu mileniach historii miast świata. Zasadnicza wartość tego dzieła nie wyczerpuje się jednak w wiedzy historycznej, łatwo dziś dostępnej z wielu źródeł, lecz w głębokim rozumieniu tego fenomenu ludzkiego instynktu społecznego, jakim jest miasto. Śledzimy, jak główne wyróżniki jego istoty, zwłaszcza sakralne pochodzenie, determinowały jego rozwój, a ich brak przynosił regres. Ta zwięzła...
