James Heinzen's innovative and compelling study examines corruption under Stalin's dictatorship in the wake of World War II, focusing on bribery as an enduring and important presence in many areas of Soviet life. Based on extensive research in recently declassified Soviet archives, The Art of the Bribe offers revealing insights into the Soviet state, its system of law and repression, and everyday life during the years of postwar Stalinism. 410 0$aYale-Hoover series on authoritarian regimes. 606 $aPolitical corruption$zSoviet Union 606 $aBribery$zSoviet Union 606 $aManners and customs 607 $aSoviet Union$xPolitics and government$y1936-1953 607 $aSoviet Union$2fast 615 0$aPolitical corruption 615 0$aBribery 615 0$aManners and customs. 676 $a364.13209470904 700 $aHeinzen$b James, $4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01071568 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910148636803321 996 $aThe Art of the Bribe$92894757 997 $aUNINA
