Ein brutales Vermächtnis der Sowjetunion: Er zählt zu den dunkelsten Kapiteln der Geschichte der Sowjetunion: der Gulag, jenes weit verzweigte, zentral gesteuerte und in seinem Umfang bis dahin beispiellose System zur Ausbeutung von Zwangsarbeit. Wie entwickelte er sich aus dem Chaos der Revolutionszeit? Welche Bedeutung hatten Zwangsarbeit und Gulag für das sowjetische System? Wie gestaltete sich das Leben in den Lagern? Diesen Fragen geht die renommierte amerikanische Journalistin Anne Applebaum in diesem Hörbuch nach.

In this magisterial and acclaimed history, Anne Applebaum offers the first fully documented portrait of the Gulag, from its origins in the Russian Revolution, through its expansion under Stalin, to its collapse in the era of glasnost.
