Stalin's genocides

Book • 2010
In *Stalin's Genocides*, Norman M. Naimark presents a compelling argument that the mass killings under Stalin's rule, including the liquidation of kulaks, the Ukrainian famine, and the purge of nationalities, should be classified as genocide.

He challenges the conventional view that these acts do not meet the UN definition of genocide and compares Stalin's crimes with those of Adolf Hitler.

The book provides a detailed examination of Stalin's systematic destruction of his own populace and explores the broader implications of these events in the context of international law.
