A)
Trotsky was a skilled politician, was arrested in 1900 for his political activities. He has published papers Bolshevik propaganda, like Pravda, the Bolsheviks to win public support has helped. He was a writer of great talent, but also a great orator. E 'was often seen as the public face of the Bolshevik party. While Lenin was behind the scenes, claimed attend meetings, and to address the masses, and thus won the support of the Bolsheviks. He usesexamples of real life, his speeches and more familiar with the public, and that took more land and one of them.
Was also a great captain and leader. He led the Bolsheviks to victory in the Civil War, for his brilliant leadership qualities. It has a new Red Army of more than 300,000 soldiers and 22,000 officers to fight the civil war, and blackmails the soldiers and their families held hostage to ensure loyalty. Using this difficultTactics of his army was very disciplined and do not dare, for the defect white. Would inspire the troops with his speeches, and visit the front to keep up morale. He spent most of my time running from battle to battle, and had the advantage would have given his train of war, in which he was driving across the country to speak.
B)
There are several reasons why Stalin and Trotsky, it has emerged as the successor of Lenin. First, the cunning tactics of Stalin and determination. Stalin tooka tedious job but powerful in the Bolshevik party, so that essentially removes his opponents, and paste it supported. He has also publicly idolized Lenin, and tried to look at every opportunity close to him. He manipulated the picture to make it appear together, and Lenin, and he would always talk with the head of a way "Leninist" too. He was the head mourning at the funeral of Lenin, too. Stalin, Trotsky had said the wrong date for the burial of Lenin, and as in the south of Russia, he believed Trotskycould not return for the funeral on time and misses. Although it was not his fault, it seemed to many that he will not be disturbed, and he has the honor of Lenin. Stalin repeatedly asked, as a mild sedative effect against the savage excesses of Trotsky. Opted for the policy that would make him many followers, and turned the opposition to one another. He skillfully constructed, its base of supporters, was not Trotsky tried to do something.
LeninWill said he did not believe that Stalin would use power with sufficient caution. When it was read, Stalin turned pale, but was saved by Zinoviev, who said that Lenin was very ill in his last days.
Trotsky, Stalin greatly underestimated. Did not believe that Stalin would be possible leader of the party, and focused on other opponents as Kamanev. Trotsky was also arrogant and often insulted the members of the party of high level. People were concerned that TrotskyRussia will result in a bitter war, and would cause further suffering. Trotsky wanted to do all the communist world and to take industrial nations to Russia more industrialized. Another blow to Trotsky is that at the time would have been his most active when Lenin died in 1923, he was ill, and so was not much to be involved with the party problems. The last straw was that Trotsky resigned as commissioner for the war, that no one really knows why.
EventuallyThe image of Stalin as a disciple of Lenin and his supporters more moderate policy earned him the eccentric Trotsky. Stalin, one after the other manipulated his opponents as possible and remove them. Trotsky was too sloppy and arrogant, and underestimated Stalin.
C)
The purges and show trials caused a tremendous fear of the Russian people. The purges began in 1928 when some engineers were accused of sabotage. Happen to many of these examinations, and any suspicionwhich are also a bit 'against communism would be arrested and many were killed. This has caused people to turn in their families, and nobody would dare to oppose Stalin. This reign of terror, ensuring that people have tried to be as common as possible, and all said that they were strong supporters of Stalin. Many innocent people were killed, only to enforce this fear, and everyone knew someone who lost in the purges.
The secret police, called the Cheka, someone would have stoppedseen as a threat to Stalin. Among these political activists and people who are not parties to the common position. From Cheka attacks against Stalin could not be caught, and was able to maintain its position as dictator totalatarianist Russia.
Through the propaganda that made it appear that Russia has been very successful. The common people seemed strangely Russian love Stalin. They seemed to believe that Russia has been very successful, and would deny the evil of Stalin. Propaganda wouldSupport for common policies and criticizing his opponent. This has changed the way people thought, and so the people most in support of his cause. The cult of personality was where everyone loved Stalin, and believed that it was a great leader. They were virtually unchanged from propaganda to brainwashing, and no one spoke against Stalin, because they fear him. If everyone loves him, will not be too difficult to obtain power.
Stalin's economic policies helped him maintain control, to someScope. It was not too hard about his thoughts on economic policy. He used as an argument against his opponents, and used it as an excuse to remove them. Changed its policy, if he wanted an argument against other opponents and successfully eliminated most of the 'opposition within the party. Economic policy has been the choice was fairly mild, and would not be strongly opposed.
In general, I think it is so important. I believe that economicwere not as effective as others because they do not guarantee it is not clear, the support and continued to change. However, I think it was propaganda, the cult of personality, purges and show trials, the most important factors that helped him maintain control, because it causes anxiety, but at the same time admired and loved for what she had done for Russia. Ceka was also an important factor, but were not as stringent as the purges feared.
Without these factors, however,would be difficult for Stalin to gain and maintain control.
