Book First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. At the heart of this book is a provocative narrative about the role of the secret police in the modern totalitarian state. Joseph Fouche, Napoleon's minister of police, made surveillance and informing into an art form ("Where there are three", Fouche once said, "I always have one listening") and coupled this surveillance with propaganda techniques that made it doubly effective. Stove describes the development of domestic surveillance in Russia, from the time of Ivan the Terrible, to its final refinement under Stalin, who brought Lenin's ideal of 'organised terror' to perfection in collaboration with his brutal head of secret police, Lavrenti Beria. ("You bring me the man", Beria once said chillingly, "and I'll find you the crime.") He also shows how the Gestapo and other police organisations led by demented individuals like Heinrich Himmler defined the essence of Nazism, particularly in his deluded notion that "the members of the Gestapo are men with human kindness, human hearts, and absolute rightness." The inside story of the secret policemen who defined the state of their art, the book takes us inside at the darkest corners of government.It is a story filled character and anecdote that leaves us wondering about the brave new worlds of manipulation and terror that may await us. Examines the internal crises that have changed the personality of what was once La Belle France, transforming it into a nation afflicted with status anxiety.
