Gulag, the Story - Part 3 (1945-1953) | FULL DOCUMENTARY (AUDIO FIXED)
A major political, historical, human and economic fact of the 20th century, the Gulag, the extremely punitive Soviet concentration camp system, remains largely unknown.
The history of the Gulag is long, complex and in many ways out of the ordinary. From the Revolution of 1917 to Gorbachev, touching on the civil war, the Great Terror, World War II, the Cold War and the death of Stalin, this series describes the workings of the Gulag.
How and why did the USSR create this system of forced-labour camps in which 20 million prisoners were exploited and worked to the bone?
Documentary: Gulag, the story - Episode 3: The Gulag’s peak and decline (1945-1953)

Thank you so much for the sound fix and reupload! Amazing series.
Thank you so much for your patience and support, we hope you enjoyed it!
Sounds depressing those poor people that had to go through that
Kind of an understatement there pal
WOKE is coming.
Not much as changed.... like nothing whatsoever!
Been waiting for this episode having watched part one and two....thank you Slice.....keep on uploading brilliant documentaries 👍
Thank you so much for supporting us!
Yes the sound mixing has been fixed, good job.
Thank you so much for your patience 🙏
Maybe in the next chapter you could include the people who were taken to Gulags from Romania and other countries. Not only Russians were taken.
I agree but the video only explains the tip of the iceberg.
Can you imagine winning WW2, and now things get worse?
I don’t think there are any winners in war
@@kerrywykes5645are you stupid?? That is a genuine question because that comment went right over your head. He is talking about the soviets continuing the gulags even though the Germans were defeated
@@kerrywykes5645war can be very peaceful… once it is won obviously but in the Soviet Union it never got peaceful unless you were a politicians daughter/son or you were deathly devoted too the country and did plenty of bad dead’s to be in the position
The only one who won ww2 are weapons manufacturers....
Soviet Union was worse than Germany. If I was Russian in that time I would have escaped to USA. The country which they gave their life for to win upon return as reward they got sent to the Gulag. How nice of Stalin. I have never known how tyrannical Soviet Union was and carried on to be even after the war. Now it makes sense why Jordan Peterson mentions it often.
Thanks for fixing audio
Thank you so much for waiting for it, we are so sorry for the delay!
Solzhenitsyn's last book: 200 Years' Together. Just like the Soviet Union refused to publish his earlier books, the West refused to publish 200 Years' Together.
History not learned is repeated.
Thank you for this fascinating series, and for the better sound in this third part.
Thank you so much for watching in spite of the wait!
Beautiful? Your kidding right
*People are capable of the utmost cruelty against others.*
👍
Thanks!
Thanks back!
do you get to keep the shovel?
Haha, that's hilarious.
A BEAUTIFUL PEASE OF HISTORY ....Well done thank you.
Thanks !!
The Gulag slaves were happy to have their number ID removed .Here in Australia our government has established Digital ID for all Australians ,whom did not ask for it. DARK days ahead for our country.
BTW ty Slice for the truth.
"Truth". Do you really know it?
If you are not payed for expressing that, then you just a fool.
There is no truth because there are too many if you want the truth then travel too Moscow or wherever Putin is hiding.
Things haven't changed much since then. The KGB Kid loves the miserable old days
These men were beautiful in youth.
31 miles of rock was broken up to make the White sea canal.
Gulags no better than the German camps, had no care if they died as they just rounded up more. This enforced labour built the country and most likely made the government rich. The soviet government were no better than slavers. I’ve been so shocked watching this, I knew of the camps but not the extreme nature of them. How anyone survived is a miracle.

"What we learn from history is that no one learns from history." - Otto von Bismarck (German statesman) "What experience and history teach is that people and governments never have learned anything from history, or acted on principles deduced from it." - Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel (philosopher) "That men do not learn very much from the lessons of history is the most important of all the lessons of history." - Aldous Huxley (author of Brave New World) READ MY LIPS: American neo-Marxists will create American gulags in the next several years.
Sorry, that's the conclusion you make from it?
Only if good people stand silent will this happen in any country. And the 2A has a profound deterrent of this happening in the United States
Запад как британия и сша знали про гулаг и были на стороне советов.
Which one is worst nazi or gulag
Is one supposed to be more acceptable than the other?
@@SLICE_Full_Doc just asking ...
I wonder when Tzar Putin will open new camps for the motherland?!
For real! They are all monsters over there in Russia, no hood comes from the USSR (Russia)
Where is the ❤️
There is none, Russians are bad too the bone
Shortly after this Putin is born to having never been inside these prisons. His hero must be himself. He wants total rule of the old Soviet. Why can’t all dictators just let their people be free to be human. Food happiness safety work love is what all human beings wants out of our lives
If the people are free then there's no civilization. The problem is that no system will ever work to govern free people at scale.let alone in your own household. Take your own philosophy and apply it to a teen ager and see what you get.
Apply your philosophy to teens and see what you get
@@russellambrosini5344do you want war with your neighbor or anybody you have known? Do you want them to start carrying kalashnikovs and mp5 and walk around there property and take anyone that walks past them?
@@Cam_dc I am only pointing out that we are all mini dictators when needed like when dealing with children and the term free to be human is one of the worst ideas one can have. Freedom is a negotiation not a right
That looks just like the Concentration camps of the Nazis🥲
When democrats forced deserted, POW camp residents to returning to the USSR. Those democrats committed shameful, serious crimes against those mesary peoples😢 .after 28 years of communist rule in USSR..wealthy classed peoples remained in infamous (Red Moscow ) 😮😊😅.
Too bad USSR wasn't a democracy
The biggest colonial power in the world was Russia and not GB and still they do it.✌️
Communism is dead. All the suffering because of mad men. Thanks for posting.
No more communism, now it's gangsterism.
Stalin fue un GIGANTE de su tiempo. Iósif Stalin vivió en una época histórica, en donde el mundo requería de liderazgos fuertes. Así que tuvo que ser un dirigente enérgico. Severo. ¡Imponente! O, de otro modo, la “Madre Rusia” hubiera desaparecido del mapa. Stalin fue lo que tenía qué ser: Un Gran Líder. Un Gran Estadista. Stalin heredó un país yermo, rural, preterido, analfabeta, hambriento, supersticioso, deprimido, insalubre, carente de todo y, para colmo, delirantemente desamparado. Rusia era entonces, un país de “Siervos” (Esclavos), y Stalin lo convirtió en una súper potencia industrializada y poderosa, que puso a temblar al mundo. Rusia estaba atrasada en 100 años con respecto a Occidente y, superadas las precariedades y todas las devastaciones que causó la Guerra, él, Stalin, el “Fundador de la URSS”, puso en marcha el primer Programa Aero-Espacial del mundo. Seis años después en 1957, lanzaron el Sputnik I. Eisenhower, al saber de semejante hazaña, creó la NASA en 1958. Kennedy inauguró el primer vuelo tripulado en 1961. ¡Jáh! Stalin recibió una Rusia que estuvo en guerra casi 30 años. (Empezando con la humillante derrota frente al Imperio de Japón, 1904-1905. Revolución Rusa, 1905. WWI, 1914-1918. Revolución Bolchevique 1917-1922. Guerra Civil contra los “Rusos Blancos”, 1922-1927. WWII 1940-1945… Más la Pandemia de la mal llamada “Fiebre Española”, en 1918-1920.

Iniciada por Stalin y secundada por todas las naciones del planeta, la viruela se erradicó en 1980―. Y, además el “Crack Financiero de Wall Street”, de 1929-1937). O sea que, Stalin, asumió el poder de un país golpeado por las guerras, enfermo por la Pandemia y, económicamente quebrado por la crisis mundial. Estas calamidades dejaron una Rusia desposeída y miserable. Stalin la rescató imponiendo disciplina y trabajo. Ni antes ni hoy, nadie en el mundo puso en duda su ENORME LIDERAZGO. Stalin fue genial; magnífico, cultísimo y astuto. Fue un Titán con mano de hierro. Amado por su pueblo y temido por sus enemigos. Hace más de 70 años que Stalin murió y, la Propaganda Occidental, no afloja en denostarlo. ¿Con qué propósito? ¿Cuál sería su utilidad ahora?

Read: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Under_a_Cruel_Star#See_also Under a Cruel Star: A Life in Prague 1941-1968 was published first under this title by Plunkett Lake Press, Cambridge, Massachusetts in 1986. The memoir was written by Heda Margolius Kovály and translated with Franci and Helen Epstein. It is now available in a Holmes & Meier, New York 1997 edition (ISBN 0-8419-1377-3), in a Plunkett Lake Press[1] 2010 eBook edition and in a Granta, London 2012 edition (ISBN 978-1-84708-476-7). Heda Margolius Kovály (1919-2010) was born in Prague. Of Jewish ancestry, she spent the years of the Second World War in the Łódź Ghetto and then in concentration camps Auschwitz and Gross Rosen sub-camps including Christianstad. After her camp was evacuated, she escaped from a death march and made her way back to Prague, where many of her friends refused to take her in due to the Nazis' harsh punishments for those sheltering camp escapees. Kovály took part in the Prague uprising against the Nazis in May 1945. The only member of her family to survive the war was her husband, Rudolf Margolius. Kovály's memoir describes in detail the continuing antisemitism that Jews returning from concentration camps faced. It also depicts the growing interest in communism among many Czechoslovaks, including her husband, who later became Deputy Minister of Foreign Trade. In January 1952 her husband was arrested and in November 1952, he was convicted in the Soviet-staged Slánský trial and executed on December 3, 1952. In the wake of her husband's trial, Kovály became a social pariah, barely able to survive and stay out of imprisonment as few would hire her for work, as at that time unemployment was illegal under the Czechoslovak constitution. The book ends with the Warsaw Pact armies invasion of Czechoslovakia in August 1968 as a response to the Prague Spring. After the invasion, Kovály emigrated to the United States. Reception In his book Cultural Amnesia: Necessary Memories from History and the Arts (2007), Clive James admired Kovály's "psychological penetration and terse style" and stated: “Given 30 seconds to recommend a single book that might start a serious student on the hard road to understanding the political tragedies of the 20th century, I would choose this one." In their book Thinking the Twentieth Century: Intellectuals and Politics in the Twentieth Century (2012) Tony Judt and Timothy Snyder recommend Under a Cruel Star.[3] Writing for The New York Times, Anthony Lewis said: "Once in a while we read a book that puts the urgencies of our time and ourselves in perspective, making us confront the darker realities of human nature." San Francisco Chronicle-Examiner called Kovály's memoir "a story of human spirit at its most indomitable … one of the outstanding autobiographies of the century." Josef Škvorecký, a fellow Czech writer and expatriate, stated that the book was "written with the sophistication of a litterateur and the immediacy of a survivor."- excerpt. On page 59 she wrote: ‘…Rudolf (her husband) took me to see some of his friends, prewar Communist intellectuals who had lived in the Soviet Union during the (Second World) war….With tears in their eyes, they described the self sacrifice and the patriotism of even the simplest Russians, their endurance and steadfast belief in eventual victory over the Nazis. They spoke about the profound feeling of brotherhood that reigned within the Soviet Union, the equality of the various nationalities and races, the fervour with which people performed even the hardest labour and most dangerous tasks for their country; they described the solicitude of the Party and of the Soviet government, the friendly acceptance that they and other refugees had enjoyed. We left deeply impressed. Two days later, Rudolf brought home applications for membership in the Communist Party. Ten years later, the old lady who had been our hostess confessed that nearly everything she and her husband told us during our visit had been untrue. They had suffered hard times in Russia. People had been afraid to talk to them. Black marketeering, collaboration, anti Semitism were rife. Many people died unnecessary deaths. But since they did not dare, for the most part, to guess at the cause of their suffering, they died blessing the Party and Stalin with their last breath.’ - excerpt from Under a Cruel Star: A Life in Prague 1941-1968 was published first under this title by Plunkett Lake Press, Cambridge, Massachusetts in 1986.

How can you be so ignorant? Tens of millions died. He was a joke of a leader. You can not fathom the pain caused... Shame on you!
@@rxd2410unfortunately, almost every political leader including the U.S all have blood on their hands. When you want to make massive changes, there will be people who resist change. If Stalin wanted to modernize the ussr, the people who would be resisting change have to be removed. He was a terrible man who killed millions of people (he went beyond just arresting those who didn't want to modernize I know). But Stalin turned a back wards country that was behind the west in almost every category to a world superpower. Entire groups of people were wiped out but the people that replaced them lived a Better quality of life. It sucks for the people who lived thru his reign, but Russia would still be light years behind the west if it wasn't for Stalin. You can't modernize a country in as short of a time without massive amounts of people being arrested or dying. Stalin cared about the nation over the individual

Gulag = ГУЛаг = Государственное Управление Лагерей, State Administration of Camps. If you don't know that, perhaps you sgould not brainwash and cheat your viewers.
Sorry if you've had any concerned about us cheating you as a viewer. Gulag is actually Russian for "Chief Administration of Corrective Labour Camps", there's a slight difference I will choose to believe you comprehend
