This work provides an in-depth and analytical look at the process of building socialism in the USSR, particularly through the participation of Greeks.

Grounded in a multitude of primary and secondary sources (many of which remain unpublished to this day or unknown to the Greek reading public), it seeks to shed light on aspects of historical past that are currently at the center of anti-communist revisionism and distortion of History.

Our research effort aims for a Marxist and scientifically substantiated approach to historical events and processes, far from idealized embellishments and flattening nihilisms, which we hope will contribute to their further study and analysis.
