"The Hungarian city of Sztálinváros, or 'Stalin-City, ' was intended to be the paradigmatic
urban community of the new communist society in the 1950s. In Stalinism Reloaded,
Sándor Horváth explores how Stalin-City and the socialist regime were built and
stabilized not only by the state but also by the people who came there with hope for
a better future. By focusing on the everyday experiences of citizens, Horváth considers
the contradictions in the Stalinist policies and the strategies these bricklayers,
bureaucrats, shop girls, and even children put in place in order to cope with and
shape the expectations of the state. Stalinism Reloaded reveals how the state influenced
marriage patterns, family structure, and gender relations. While the devastating effects
of this regime are considered, a convincing case is made that ordinary citizens had
significant agency in shaping the political policies that governed them"--Provided
