Joseph Stalin

Nikita Khruschev, he said many un-flattering things about Stalin, and basically just denounced his legacy entirely.

Stalin became known as the 'Grey Blur' because of his tactics.

On his way into power he tried to be as sneaky as possible, playing his political opponents off against each other, and tricking them into making poor decisions until he no longer had any opposition. He was able to do this because he had no concrete set of values of beliefs, so he could effectively change his opinion to anything in order to obtain power.

No, he was not. He was a revolutionary and a member of the Bolshevik Party, later General Secretary, before becoming Party leader and Vozhd of Soviet Russia in 1928, until his death in 1953. Here is a brief history of Stalin's education and early career:

At sixteen, he received a scholarship to a Georgian Orthodox seminary, where he rebelled against the imperialist and religious order. Though he performed well there, he was expelled in 1899 after missing his final exams. The seminary's records suggest he was unable to pay his tuition fees. The official Soviet version states that he was expelled for reading illegal literature and forming a Social Democratic study circle.

Shortly after leaving the seminary, Stalin discovered the writings of Lenin and decided to become a Marxist revolutionary, eventually joining Lenin's Bolshevik Party in 1903. After being marked by the Okhrana (the Tsar's secret police) for his activities, he became a full-time revolutionary and outlaw. He became one of the Bolsheviks' chief operatives in the Caucasus, organizing paramilitaries, inciting strikes, spreading propaganda and raising money through bank robberies, ransom kidnappings and extortion.

It depends on your own opinion,really.They were both brutal murdering tyrants who slaughtered their own people and their political enemies.They both also Killed several million people.Stalin also imprisoned people in brutal soviet labor camps(like Vorkuta or Magadan) who opposed "Stalinism".He also imprisoned German POW`s from WW2,as the Germans did to Russian prisoners at concentration camps during WW2.So i sai they were both horrible,evil people.

No you are wrong adolf hitler was 10 times worse, i say he was worse than osama bin laden. he was like a devil. josep stalin ended up helping the allies retard. get you facts right.

Joseph Stalin did not actually carry the title "President" although he certainly had what we consider Presidential power. His official titles were "General Secretary of the Central Committee of the All-Union Communist Party of Bolsheviks" and "Chairman of the Council of Ministers of the USSR".

Stalin did study at a seminary for a while so for some time at least he anticipated being a priest.

The five-year plan was during 1928-32 but the second was during the 1933-7 and the thrid five-year plan was in 1938-43. I git more information about it if you need it.

Tbilisi Theological Seminary

Stalin did not study law. Perhaps he studied how to get around it since he was a bank robber. Lenin studied law and practiced it for two years. (This is why no one tells lawyer jokes in Russia.)

Stalin was born on 18 December 1878 (6 December old calendar), according to his baptismal and school certificates from his birthplace in Gori, Georgia.

Soviet tradition said he was born 21 December 1879, but communist party archives which came to light after the collapse of the Soviet Union revealed his baptismal and school certificates, with the 18 December 1878 birth date.

Stalin died on 5 March 1953.

actually no because Joseph Stalin even though was a dictator he didn't have enough money to give the workers three dollars a day and pay over 3000 dollars just to start and buy workers to do the propaganda for him because to me it sounds like its very easer to do popagandar but Stalin is just stalin from his work

Joseph Stalin worked his way from a poor peasant to the ruler of the largest country in the world . He helped overthrow the Tsarist government , win the Russia civil war , industrialize Russia , defeat Hitler in World War II , and earned " New York Times " , " Man of the Year " .

So yes , he was rich , he was a ruler of the largest country in the world , but he was a very cruel man by what he did with other peasants and stuff ..

Communist leaders or anyone who he thought was threatening his authority.

Leon Trotsky remained the person most dedicated to the classic theories put forth by Karl Marx. Both Lenin and Stalin deviated from true Marxian theory for expediency in gaining and maintaining political control of the country.

Trotsky took the stand that there must be permanent revolution worldwide in order for socialism to survive and evolve into communism. This was different from Stalin's view that socialism in one country should be maintained first, then once secured, it could attempt to spread socialism elsewhere.

It lead to an agreement between the two countries of non aggression (Signed 28th August, 1939). Hitler hoped the pact would stop GB and France upholding their guarantee to Poland and avoid war with them. However in the end GB and Fr did up hold their guarantee to Poland and declared war on Germany (September 1, 1939). The pact was therefore useless for stopping war with GB and Fr but useful for Hitler, as it allowed him to pick his time to break the agreement and attack Russia (Operation Barbarossa 22 June 1941).
It was an anti-aggression pact. It other words they weren't supposed to attack each other, but it was just a delay until they reached enough supplies.
This was so as Hitler did not want to have a war on two fronts with the Allies on the west and Stalin on the east. Another benefit is that Hitler will be free on Stalin in his invasion of Poland

Volgograd

Lavrenty Beria, Joseph Stalin's hatchetman, tried for treason, found guilty and executed on December 23, 1953, several months after the death of Stalin. Beria was executed by firing squad.

There is another account that states that in June 1953, Beria's home was assaulted by a military force intending to arrest him for treason and he was killed then and there. Supposedly, his trial was conducted in secret after his death and his "guilt" and "execution" announced months after his death in June, 1953.

Lavrentiy Beria was the head of the Soviet Ministry of the Interior and of the secret police from late in 1938 till 1946. He remained very influential in Soviet politics till shortly after Stalin's death in 1953.

By leading the Soviet people in defeating the Nazis, he struck the decisive, most important blow of WWII. It is very likely the Nazis would have won the war without his leadership. The total numbers of lives his leadership saved far, far surpasses on several orders of magnitude the lives lost under his leadership, which was 2.5 million tops, over a 30 year reign. How many people died under Dubya's four year watch? Do the math.
