Dialectical and historical materialism pdf stalin Continue Born to Joseph Vissarionovich Dzhugashvili in modest parents in Gori, Georgia, Joseph Stalin first became interested in Marxism when he was studying for the priesthood. These studies suddenly ended with his expulsion for revolutionary activities aimed at overthrowing the king. After various periods of arrest and escape or imprisonment, he became a follower of Lenin. From 1903 to 1913 he wrote revolutionary materials. Around 1913 he took the name Stalin, a man of steel. The editor of the Communist newspaper Pravda, in 1917, he led the newspaper and began his rise to power in the Communist Party, eventually becoming a leading member of the triumvirate that ruled the USSR after Lenin's death. During his dictatorship that followed, many of his former comrades died in the purges he initiated. During World War II, after Nazi Germany violated the mutual non-aggression agreement it signed with Russia, Stalin joined the Allies. During and after the Allied victory, he met with other Allied leaders---Cerkill, Roosevelt, and Truman--- at the Tehran, Yalta and Potsdam conferences. The post-war capture of Eastern Europe helped start the Cold War. After his death, Stalin received the funeral of the state hero and was buried next to Lenin on Red Square in Moscow. In 1961, after Nikita Khrushchev condemned him and his policies, his body was transferred to the cemetery of heroes at the Kremlin wall. In March 1969, about two years after Stalin's daughter Svetlana Alliluyeva caused a sensation when she left the USSR and her family to seek asylum in the United States, Pravda began releasing excerpts from Mikhail Sholokhov's new novel, They Fought for Their Country, which meant Stalin was unaware of his secret police activities in the 1930s purges. Svetlana also prepared work on --- Letters to a Friend: A Memoir. In it, she cast a new light on Stalin's personal life and his mother's suicide. She refrains from expressing active hostility towards her father and believes that he was to some extent deceived by Beria, the head of his secret police. Of Stalin's many biographical studies, however, one of the most fascinating is that of Leo Trotsky. In the introduction to the 1967 edition, Bertram D. Wolfe writes: In all literature there is no more dramatic relationship between the author and the subject... It's like Robespierre makes the life of Fouche, Kurbsky Ivan the Terrible, Muenzer Martin Luther.

The work first appeared in 1938, based both on the philosophical works of Vladimir Lenin, and on a new Short Course on the history of the All-Union Communist Party (Bolsheviks). Later it became the state doctrine of the Soviet Union. The name refers to dialectic materialism and historical materialism. The synopsis of Stalin's article is divided into three parts, and is very systematically presented: A: sketches of the Marxist dialectical method, unlike the metaphysics Nature's single whole Nature is in constant motion The development of nature is the transition of quantity as natural phenomena possess internal contradictions, as part of their struggle, and cannot be reformist, but rather revolutionary B: sketches of Marxist philosophical materialism as opposed to idealism The world is materialistic in nature Being objective Knowledge of natural laws is studied by practice, laws of social development, objective truth, analog biology, socialism - it is science C: Historical materialism What is the main defining force in society? The way material is produced, not the geographical environment or population growth. The real party of the proletariat controls the laws of the development of the production Schematic picture of history: A. Primitive communal / primitive communism B. Slavery K. Feudalism D.
