Djilas' analysis of Stalin's participation in Russian political history is both significant and poignant in its application; not only does the reader gain considerable insight as to Stalin's intimidating reign, but he also adopts a better understanding of the processes of communism and socialism. The writer offers a critical evaluation of Djilas' book. No additional sources cited.
