Why did the USSR favor communism? And why did they promote it?

History

eimsori [14]2 years ago

Answer:

Many Europeans were already followers of communism or related socialist ideologies even before the war due to the impact of the achievements of the Soviet Union in the fields of proletarian emancipation, industrial modernization and social progress.

We can think of the incredible response of international communists/leftist volunteers to fight in Spain against Franco and his fascist supporters (among which we can even find Italians and Germans!!!).

It is true that many communist and leftist organizations received a cold shower after the announcement of the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact between Soviet Union and Nazi Germany but many thought that was a clever, albeit twisted, move of Stalin to trick the Nazi…in some way!

Anyway, after WWII the Soviet Union came out as the winner and a winner that almost singlehandedly won the war!!!

At the end Stalin seemed not only the benign "Father" of the workers but also the brilliant strategist that won the war for the communist ideology...

So if the Soviet Union managed to do that its ideology had to be the winning one!!!

Any kind of doubt or opposition to Stalinist communism was forgotten or silenced.

Fascists/Nazis were responsible for widespread destruction, massacres, famine and murder while the communists looked at themselves as the defenders of humanity against the evil doers that on top of everything even created concentration camps and prosecuted minorities (thing that was already happening for years in Soviet Union anyway).

In many nations like France, Greece, Yugoslavia, Italy communist guerrilla resistant fighters against the Nazis were now acclaimed as liberators and redeemer of the motherland.

There was also opportunism…In my country, Italy, after the war it is said that many black shirts turned red….overnight…and not because of weird problem in washing them!

Explain two contributing factors of the Industrial Revolution (why'd it happen in Britain)?
dexar [7]

Answer: Britain was best suited for the Industrial Revolution.

Explanation:

Several factors caused the Industrial Revolution to happen in the UK. In this context, we will list two major factors. Britain during the XVIII. century had the largest manufacturers in the world. Large quantities of fabric were used for manufacturing needs, so there was a need for the manufacturing method to be faster. The producers wanted more goods and faster production.

So there is an investment of money in technological research, which will be the second biggest factor that led to the revolution. A scientific revolution preceded the industrial revolution. The British invested a lot of money in new technologies, which led to revolutionary products that forever changed the development of the human race.

Which of the following is a true statement about George H. W. Bush?
velikii [3]

Answer:

The correct answer is D) He trusted Gorbachev more than Regan did.

Explanation:

All other Statements are false. He did not serve as Reagan's secretary of State and was in fact the Vice President with him for 8 years.

He also had a lot of experience in foreign affairs. He finally became President in 1989 and served until 1993 until losing the election to Bill Clinton.

However, he did have a great relationship with Soviet Union's Gorbachev and trusted him more than Ronald Reagan. He was instrumental in negotiating a closer relationship between the Soviets and Americans, especially after the collapse of communism.
