 Workers Against Lenin: Labour Protest and the Bolshevik Dictatorship By Jonathan Aves 1996 | 256 Pages | ISBN: 1860640672 | PDF | 4 MB This work challenges the view, widely held among historians of the Bolshevik revolution, that the upsurge of labour unrest of 1920-22 was the result of the appalling living conditions caused by the Civil War, had little significant content and was largely a sideshow to the huge conflict between the Bolsheviks and the peasants.Based on a wide reading of the contemporary Soviet press, archive sources and first-hand accounts by Bolsheviks and non-Bolsheviks, this work shows how rank and file opposition to the leadership in the Bolshevik-dominated trade unions grew, and how support for non-Bolshevik trade unions and political parties developed fast.

 Winning Lebanon: Youth Politics, Populism, and the Production of Sectarian Violence, 1920-1958 (Cambridge Middle East Studies, Series Number 59) By Dylan Baun 2020 | 250 Pages | ISBN: 1108491529 | PDF | 4 MB By the mid-twentieth century, youth movements around the globe ruled the streets. In Lebanon, young people in these groups attended lectures, sang songs, and participated in sporting events; their music tastes, clothing choices and routine activities shaped their identities. Yet scholars of modern Lebanon often focus exclusively on the sectarian makeup and violent behaviors of these socio-political groupings, obscuring the youth cultures that they forged. Using unique sources to highlight the daily lives of the young men and women of Lebanon's youth politics, Dylan Baun traces the political and cultural history of a diverse set of youth-centric organizations from the 1920s to 1950s to reveal how these youth movements played significant roles in the making of the modern Middle East. Outlining how youth movements established a distinct type of politics and populism, Winning Lebanon reveals that these groups both encouraged the political socialization of different types of youth, and, through their attempts to 'win' Lebanon - physically and metaphorically - around the 1958 War, helped produce sectarian violence.

White Steppe: An Indictment: 4 years of imprisonment in Soviet Russia by Antonino Buffa English | January 17, 2016 | ISBN: 1523720174 | 315 pages | MOBI | 0.51 Mb In a word, White Steppe is quite simply one of the great books of the twentieth century, the century that, through science and technology, was supposed to bring enlightenment and progress but instead brought death and destruction on a scale without precedent. Remember what happened: the enormous combinations of energy and power that came into being with industrialization, the astonishing division of labor which turned millions of men, women, and children into the interchangeable parts of a vast mind-numbing machine. Those not content to leave everything to the unfettered workings of the free market were desperate to find an alternative to a heartless capitalism that made masters of a few and slaves of everyone else. Communism and fascism were the two major alternatives, and with the Russian Revolution of 1917 and the rise of Hitler and the Nazis 1933 to power the stage was set for a war to the death between them.
