Stalin And Hitler by Domenico Losurdo
A comparative study that examines the political, social and ideological foundations of Stalinist and Nazi rule, arguing that both regimes relied on mass terror, concentration camps and state-directed violence while nonetheless differing in origins, targets and aims; it traces Soviet practices such as collectivization, purges and the Gulag alongside Nazi racial genocide, and interrogates how revolutionary ideology, class conflict and imperial dynamics shaped each form of brutality. The book also critiques Western historiography and political rhetoric for treating the two sets of crimes with a double standard, and calls for a context-sensitive comparison that neither collapses important differences nor excuses mass repression.
