"Revisioning Stalin and Stalinism: Complexities, Contradictions, and Controversies"
:stalin-joking: LMAOOO :stalin-stressed:
edit: okay but this actually does look interesting, can't wait to listen!
Way to totally out yourself as a lib tbh, I did title this "for the libs in your life" :tito-laugh:
Thought it was an interesting listen though. Gonna get their book on libgen and add it to the infinite queue.
