- Harris had been conducting archival research on the so-called ‘great terror’ for more than 25 years, in military, foreign policy, economic and party archives both in Moscow and in the Russian provinces. The book presents a fundamentally new approach to political repression in the Soviet Union and particularly the period of 1936-1938 when the violence reached a peak that was never repeated. It was listed as one of the best books on Russia in 1996 by Pushkin House.
