Analysis:
Since the mid-1980s, there have been two major changes in Russian (including Soviet) society's evaluation of the 70-year history of the Soviet Union. The first time happened in 1987, when Gorbachev, then general secretary of the Soviet Central Committee, initiated political reform. The change of political system has aroused the response of historians, who put forward that "there should be no forgotten figures and blank spots" in the history of the Soviet Union, thus setting off a "movement to reevaluate the history of the Soviet Union" throughout the country. This movement played a role in breaking through the dogmatism and rigid understanding of Marxism that prevailed in the history circle in the past, but it went to extremes under the slogan of "openness and democratization", which led to a total denial of Soviet history, social chaos and national disintegration.
At the beginning of the disintegration of the Soviet Union, the statues and monuments of former Soviet leaders were madly destroyed. It was also at this time that Stalingrad was renamed Volgograd.
However, in 2003, Volgograd made a resolution to restore the original name of the city "Stalingrad". The Speaker of the State Assembly said: "Stalingrad is the most glorious name in Russian history. Stalin is a symbol of a powerful Russia. Reusing this name will help Russians to be full of hope for the future of the country. " A dozen states have signed up to support Volgograd's name change request.
On June 3rd, 2003,165438+1October 65438, Ishim, Tyumen, Russia * * * decided to erect the Stalin Monument again where the statue of Stalin had been demolished. Vice Mayor Ifajeva pointed out that during the Great Patriotic War, the regiment composed of the people of Ishim shouted "For the motherland! For Stalin! " Slogan from this square to the front. And * * * this decision has been widely supported. This is the justice of history.
According to the latest statistics, Stalin's reconfirmation is not limited to * * * (accounting for 75% of the party's respondents). The Liberal Democratic Party has the highest proportion of affirming Stalin (83% of the party's respondents), and 58% of the respondents in the pro-president Russian regime party "United Russia" also affirmed Stalin.
I just haven't decided whether to change my name to Stalingrad.
