Magnetic Mountain- Stalinism As a Civilization

When Bolshevik reformers descended on the five hills containing valuable iron-ore deposits, they tranformed the rural area into "Magnetic Mountain City"--An urban settlement praised for its ability to sustain the industrialization and political organization of the Communist doctrine. The resulting community stood as an example of how Communism, and Stalinist Communism in particular, could change rural agrarian society.

  • "This study is the first of its kind: a street-level inside account of what Stalinism meant to the masses of ordinary people who lived it. Stephen Kotkin was the first American in 45 years to be allowed into Magnitogorsk, a city built in response to Stalin's decision to transform the predominantly agricultural nation into a "country of metal." With unique access to previously untapped archives and interviews, Kotkin forges a vivid and compelling account of the impact of industrialization on a single urban community. Kotkin argues that Stalinism offered itself as an opportunity for enlightenment."@en
