The creation of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR) in 1922 was one of the defining events of the 20th century. This new federation, created to embody the ideals of communism and the notion of rule by the people, was intended to be different from any other nation in the world. This utopian vision inspired people around the world, and soon, communism became an international movement. However, the history of the Soviet Union did not develop in the way its originators envisaged.

Despite repeated warnings from the White House, Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in February 2022 shocked the world. Why did Putin start the war—and why has it unfolded in previously unimaginable ways? Ukrainians have resisted a superior military; the West has united, while Russia grows increasingly isolated. Serhii Plokhy, a leading historian of Ukraine and the Cold War, offers a definitive account of this conflict, its origins, course, and the already apparent and possible future consequences.

Agents of Influence reveals the secret history of an intelligence agency gone out of control, accountable to no one but itself and intent on subverting Western politics on a near-inconceivable scale. In 1985, 1,300 KGB officers were stationed in the USA. The FBI only had 350 counter-intelligence officers. Since the early days of the Cold War, the KGB seduced parliamentarians and diplomats, infiltrated the highest echelons of the Civil Service, and planted fake news in papers across the world.

At a huge cost, the Red Army and the civilian population of Leningrad ultimately endured a bitter 900-day siege, struggling against constant bombing, shelling, and starvation. Throughout the siege, Soviet forces tried to break the German lines and restore contact with the garrison. To Besiege a City charts the first of these offensives which began in January 1942 and was followed by repeated assaults.

Stingray’s memoir vividly shows how the energy of youth culture and an international love affair with rock ‘n’ roll forged alliances among a new generation who brought an end to the U.S.S.R.

At Bent Jensen (f. 1938) lærte russisk og læste historie, var en tilfældig beslutning – Modløber er fortællingen om, hvordan det kom til at forme resten af hans liv. Og det er Bent Jensens personlige erindringer om, hvad han er rundet af, hvad der har formet ham og optaget ham – fra barndommens indremissionske miljø i Kjellerup til et nutidigt blik på det Rusland, han har fulgt tæt i årtier.

In 1890, Kate Marsden, a British nurse, travelled 14,000 miles by boat, train, sledge, and horse, to reach remote isolated patients with leprosy in Siberia. Her resulting memoir, On Sledge and Horseback to the Outcast Siberian Lepers, is more than just a travelogue. It offers a profound reflection on the plight of societal outcasts, the challenges faced by female explorers, and the need for religious zeal to survive, all of which she experienced with the approval of Queen Victoria and Empress Maria Feodorovna.

Als Russland am 24. Februar 2022 die Ukraine angriff, schien das großen Teilen der russischen Gesellschaft egal zu sein. Das ist nicht Uberraschend. Seit Jahren wird das russische Expansionsstreben davon begleitet, dass gesellschaftlich das Recht des StArkeren gilt. Gewalt wird von vielen als Mittel der Politik akzeptiert. Gesine DornblUth und Thomas Franke erklAren, wie es dazu kommen konnte. Ihre Reportagen und Analysen fUhren uns durch drei Jahrzehnte, in denen nationalistische KrAfte Uber Verfechter demokratischer Werte die Oberhand gewannen.

In 1979, alarmed Soviet leaders watched the growing civil war in Afghanistan with trepidation. Russia’s neighbor had been a close ally for many years, acting as a buffer between Russia and British India, proving vital in the “Great Game” between the two empires. Various coups had, by this point, led to a Moscow-friendly government in Kabul, but things were not playing out as the Soviets had hoped.

It's March 2022 and Russian tanks are roaring across the vast, snow-dusted fields of Ukraine. Their destination: Voznesensk, a town with a small bridge that could change the course of the war. The heavily armed Russians are expecting an easy fight - or no fight at all. After all, Voznesensk is a quiet farming town, full of pensioners. But the locals appear to have other ideas. A gripping work of reportage that tells the story of a pivotal moment in Ukraine's war, this is a real-life thriller about ordinary people facing extraordinary circumstances with resilience, humour and ingenuity.

Spätestens mit dem Angriff auf die Ukraine stellt sich die Frage, wie Russland zu dem wurde, was es heute ist. Olaf Kühl, langjähriger Osteuropareferent der Regierenden Bürgermeister von Berlin, kennt das Land wie nur wenige; er hat es über Jahrzehnte intensiv bereist, auch abseits der großen Metropolen, bis nach Sibirien und in den Fernen Osten. In seinem Buch zeigt er, wie sich Russland seit dem Zerfall der Sowjetunion entwickelt hat - wie hellere, freiere Köpfe allmählich durch regimehörige Funktionäre ersetzt wurden, bevor eine mafiöse Geheimdienstelite die Macht an sich riss.

Lo storico e giornalista Aldo Giannuli torna sulla fondazione del sistema di potere sovietico nel suo momento cruciale: il passaggio di testimone tra Lenin e Stalin. Se è possibile rintracciare in Lenin alcune premesse per il successivo sviluppo storico che porterà all’affermazione dello stalinismo, secondo l’autore è errato sostenere una continuità diretta tra le posizioni politiche dei due leader. Leninismo e stalinismo sono stati dunque fenomeni tra loro ben distinti, separati da una profonda rottura politica e da visioni spesso contrastanti.
