Showcasing the Great Experiment explores the reception of these intellectuals and fellow-travelers and their cross-cultural and trans-ideological encounters in order to analyze Soviet attitudes towards the West. Many of the twentieth century's greatest writers and thinkers, including Theodore Dreiser, Andre Gide, Paul Robeson, and George Bernard Shaw, notoriously defended Stalin's USSR despite the unprecedented violence of its prewar decade. 001389713 648_7 $$a1917 - 1936$$2fast 001389713 650_0 $$aIntellectuals$$xTravel$$zSoviet Union$$xHistory. 001389713 650_0 $$aVisitors, Foreign$$zSoviet Union$$xHistory. 001389713 650_0 $$aPropaganda$$zSoviet Union. 001389713 650_7 $$aCultural policy.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst00885007 001389713 650_7 $$aIntellectuals$$xTravel.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst00975826 001389713 650_7 $$aPropaganda.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01078957 001389713 650_7 $$aPublic opinion, American.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01354087 001389713 650_7 $$aPublic opinion, European.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01354108 001389713 650_7 $$aInternational relations.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst00977053 001389713 650_7 $$aVisitors, Foreign.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01167960 001389713 650_7 $$aReisender$$2gnd$$0(DE-588)4177613-6 001389713 650_7 $$aIntellektueller$$2gnd$$0(DE-588)4027249-7 001389713 650_7 $$aAuswärtige Kulturpolitik$$2gnd$$0(DE-588)4069027-1 001389713 650_7 $$aPropaganda$$2gnd$$0(DE-588)4076374-2 001389713 650_7 $$aDiplomatie.$$2idszbz 001389713 650_7 $$aKultur.$$2idszbz 001389713 650_7 $$aBesucher.$$2idszbz 001389713 650_7 $$aIntellektueller.$$2idszbz 001389713 651_0 $$aSoviet Union$$xRelations$$zWestern countries. 001389713 651_0 $$aWestern countries$$xRelations$$zSoviet Union. 001389713 651_0 $$aSoviet Union$$xCultural policy. 001389713 651_0 $$aSoviet Union$$xForeign public opinion, American. 001389713 651_0 $$aSoviet Union$$xForeign public opinion, European. 001389713 651_0 $$aSoviet Union$$xHistory$$y1917-1936. 001389713 651_7 $$aSoviet Union.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01210281 001389713 651_7 $$aWestern countries.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01302083 001389713 651_7 $$aSowjetunion$$2gnd$$0(DE-588)4077548-3 001389713 651_7 $$aWestliche Welt$$2gnd$$0(DE-588)4079237-7 001389713 651_7 $$aSowjetunion.$$2idszbz 001389713 651_7 $$aWestliche Welt.$$2idszbz 001389713 655_7 $$aHistory.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01411628 001389713 852__ $$bgen 001389713 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1389713$$pGLOBAL_SET 001389713 980__ $$aBIB 001389713 980__ $$aBOOK 001389713 994__ $$aC0$$bISE
