LABS OF TERROR - Lynne Viola - Bog

Laboratories of Terror explores the final chapter of Stalin's Great Terror in Soviet Ukraine. Making use of previously classified archival documents from the newly opened former KGB archives of Ukraine, this collection of essays is the first English-language study of mid-level NKVD (KGB) operatives. It illuminates the previously opaque world of the Soviet perpetrator and the mechanics and logistics of the Great Terror at the local level.
