This unique volume examines how and to what extent former victims of Stalinist terror from across the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe were received, reintegrated and rehabilitated following the mass releases from prisons and labour camps which came in the wake of Stalin's death in 1953 and Khrushchev's reforms in the subsequent decade.
“Essays work together to provide a picture of the rehabilitation of Stalin’s victims in selected Soviet republics and states in the Soviet sphere of influence. They provide details for the overarching themes of what rehabilitation truly meant for the victims and how these victims sometimes acted on their own behalf. All the essays are captivating and backed by numerous references. Therefore, this collected work is highly recommended.” (Christina Baxter, Europe-Asia Studies, Vol. 65 (7), October, 2017)
