5 Stalin s Dictatorship: USSR, Introduction Lenin, the leader of the Bolshevik Party, and one of the chief orchestrators of the 1917 October Revolution, was dead by January 1924, leaving a power vacuum at the top of Russian government. The question remained as to who was going to lead the Communist Party now that Lenin was gone? Lenin had already expressed his desires to see Leon Trotsky assume leadership indeed, many people had seen Trotsky as being Lenin s second in comm and, and Trotsky was certainly a capable leader if a little on the arrogant side. For many, there could be no doubt: Trotsky would become the next leader. However, what would transpire over the course of the next few years would shock even the most toughened veterans of Russian Communist politics: working behind the scenes of Russian politics, and slowly and ingeniously manoeuvring his way into power was Joseph Stalin, the dangerously obscure General Secretary of the Communist Party, and the self -styled Man of Steel. Stalin would eliminate his political enemies with a ruthless, calculating, and clinical efficiency on a scale that many historians believe surpasses even the atrocities committed by Hitler in Nazi Germany. Once in power, Stalin s rule was absolute; persecution, torture, imprisonment, murder, and unspeakable cruelty are the tools of the dictator s trade, and Stalin used them to frightening effect. The Russian population dared not oppose him lest they or their families face the executioner or the backbreaking slavery of the terrifying Gulag labour camps- if given the choice between enduring the slavery of the Gulag or facing a quick(er) death from the NKVD death squads, many would almost certainly chose the bullet. In Stalinist Russia, nobody was safe; fear ruled, and families and old friends turned against eachother in an attempt to survive. Yet, Stalin transformed Russia from a backwards peasant society to the second largest economy in the world second only to the US in just 10 years. But this government-driven period of rapid modernisation would come at a terrible price for the Russian people between WE WILL EXAMINE STALIN S DICTATORSHIP UNDER THE FOLLOWING AREAS: 1) TO WHAT EXTENT STALIN BECAME A PERSONAL DICTATOR IN COMMUNIST RUSSIA BY THE END OF THE 1920S 2) HOW STALIN REINFORCED HIS DICTATORSHIP IN THE 1930S 3) TO WHAT EXTENT STALIN MADE THE USSR A GREAT ECONOMIC POWER 5
6 KEY WORDS: STALIN; DICTATORSHIP; TOTALITARIAN; PROPAGANDA; BOLSHEVIK; COMMUNISM; ZINOVIEV; KAMENEV; TROTSKY; SHOW TRIALS; NEP; NKVD; MODERNISATION; COLLECTIVISATION; GULAG; KULAK; CULT OF PERSONALITY; INFORMERS; PIONEERS; Key Issue 1: To what extent had Stalin become a personal dictator in Communist Russia by the end of the 1920s? THE RISE OF A PERSONAL DICTATOR: JOSEPH STALIN The Background of Stalin and Trotsky JOSEPH STALIN Born in Georgia, in the southern part of the Russian Empire in Joined the Bolsheviks, and supported Lenin. Took part in the Russian Civil War, defending Tsaritsyn (Stalingrad). Became the General Secretary of the Communist Party in 1922 and he was also the Commissar for Nationalities; he used these positions to rise to power; he placed loyal followers in senior positions that could help advance his own interests. People did not really know what Stalin might do if he came to power. LEON TROTSKY Member of the Bolshevik/Communist Party and a supporter of Lenin. Brilliant military leader; he led the Red Guards in the October Revolution; he formed and led the Red Army during the Russian Civil War. He was very popular within the Communist Party, but some members of the Politburo did not like his arrogance. Lenin also criticised Trotsky s over-confidence. Some feared that Trotsky might turn Russia into a military state if he came to power. He was a brilliant speaker and a great political organiser. He was still the most likely to succeed Lenin as the leader of the Communist Party; Lenin s Testament also showed support for Trotsky becoming the new leader. 6
7 The Death and Funeral of Lenin Lenin s Testament In December 1923, one month before he died, Lenin wrote his testament. Lenin s testament described his thoughts on who should lead the Communist Party when he died. Lenin showed his support for Trotsky s excellent political and military capabilities. He also hoped that some of the Communist leaders might share power between themselves; but later this would prove impossible. He did not want Stalin to become the leader he was afraid that Stalin would abuse his power. Stalin vs. Trotsky The Struggle for Power Stalin vs. Trotsky Differences in policies TROTSKY Trotsky wanted permanent revolution worldwide Communist Revolution this would mean that workers in other countries would set up Communist states after overthrowing their own governments. Trotsky knew that Communism was weak in Russia. Trotsky believed that Communism could only survive in Russia if it spread to other countries, particularly in Western Europe. He believed that permanent revolution should be a goal of the USSR. STALIN Wanted Communism in one country he believed that before Russia encourages a world revolution, Communism must be developed in Russia through a period of peace and rebuilding in Russia Communism would not be successful in Russia unless Russia becomes a modern and powerful nation. Lenin s Funeral: Stalin Tricks Trotsky Stalin made great pomp and ceremony over Lenin s funeral: this was to give the impression that he and Lenin were very close. Stalin intentionally told Trotsky the wrong date for Lenin s funeral; Trotsky arrived a day late, missed the funeral, and lost a lot of popularity as a result. It was becoming clear that Stalin was trying to undermine Trotsky s public image, with the intention of challenging Trotsky for the leadership of the Communist Party in Russia. 7
