Stalin

n. Joseph Stalin (1879-1953, born Iosif Vissarionovich Dzhugashvili), Soviet politician, leader of the U.S.S.R (1924-53)

Josef Vissarionovich Dzhugashvili (, Ioseb Besarionis Dze Jughashvili; , Iosif Vissarionovich Dzhugashvili) ( – March 5 1953), better known by his adopted name, Joseph Stalin (alternatively transliterated Josef Stalin), was General Secretary of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union's Central Committee from 1922 until his death in 1953. Although Stalin's formal position originally had little significant influence, his office being nominally but one of several Central Committee Secretariats, Stalin's increasing control of the Party from 1928 onwards led to his becoming the de facto party leader and the dictator of his country, in full control of the Soviet Union and its people. His crash programs of industrialization and collectivization in the 1930s and his campaigns of political repression cost the lives of millions of people.
