Until the collapse of the Soviet Union, communists had always believed that the only way a socialist state could be destroyed was by hostile forces from the outside. Now we know that this was tragically wrong. The Soviet Union was destroyed by betrayal from within.
Uncovering the reasons for the collapse of the Soviet Union is the most important question confronting Marxists, socialists, and communists today. This is the subject of Prof. Furr’s talk.
Our speaker today is researcher, historian, and author, Prof. Grover Furr of Montclair State University in New Jersey. He teaches Medieval English Literature and has a Ph.D. from Princeton University. However, his subject of research has been the Soviet history of the Stalin period, on which he has written many articles and 17 books, starting with ‘Khrushchev Lied’ in 2011, and his last published book is titled ‘Trotsky’s Comintern Conspiracy – The Case of Osip Pyatnitsky’ published in 2024. His present research is on the Gorbachev period, which culminated in the fall of the USSR in 1991.
