quote="When we analyze the practice of Stalin in regard to the direction of the party and the country, when we pause to consider everything which Stalin perpetrated, we must be convinced that Lenin's fears were justified. The negative characteristics of Stalin, which, in Lenin's time, were only incipient, transformed themselves during the last years into a grave abuse of power by Stalin, which caused untold harm."

'''Khrushchevism''' is an authoritarian left ideology, which is a moderate version of [[File:ML.png]] [[Marxism–Leninism]] created by Soviet leader [[File:NikitaKhrushchev.png]] [[Marxism–Leninism|Nikita Khrushchev]] with a primary focus on [[File:Anti-Stalin.png]] De-Stalinisation and subsequent relative liberalization of cultural policies and small parts of the economy, while preserving an authoritarian, one party, socialist state, and the planned economy. He also prioritized the needs of the people over the state, emphasizing investments in agriculture and consumer goods over the military and heavy industry. Khrushchev dismantled [[File:Slavery.png]] Gulags, freed millions of political prisoners, and enacted a cultural thaw with more cultural exchange with Western nations, as well as liberalizations of arts, abortions, and marriage.

== Beliefs ==
Khruschevism believes many of the same concepts as Marxism-Leninism, but rejects Stalin and his cult of personality, willing to pardon or rehabilitate some who were persecuted during his rule. Despite his softer attitudes elsewhere, he is strictly state atheist, undoing WW2-era relaxed stance on religion. He also rejects any attempt to challenge the one-party system, as the 1956 suppression of Nagy's reforms shows.

== History ==
===Legacy===
Many of Khrushchev's innovations were reversed after his fall. As was the division in the Party structure between industrial and agricultural sectors, the requirement that one-third of officials be replaced at each election was overturned. His vocational education program for high school students was dropped, and his plan to send existing agricultural institutions to the land ended. However, new agricultural or vocational institutions thereafter were located outside major cities. When new housing was built, much of it was in high rises rather than Khrushchev's low-rise structures.

Historian Robert Service summarizes Khrushchev's contradictory personality traits:

[he was] at once a Stalinist and an anti-Stalinist, a communist believer and a cynic, a self-publicizing poltroon and a crusty philanthropist, a trouble-maker and a peacemaker, a stimulating colleague and a domineering boor, a statesman and a politicker who was out of his intellectual depth.

Some of Khrushchev's agricultural projects were easily overturned. Corn became so unpopular in 1965 that its planting fell to the lowest level in the postwar period.[291] Lysenko was stripped of his policy-making positions. However, the MTS stations remained closed, and the basic agricultural problems, which Khrushchev had tried to address, remained. While the Soviet standard of living increased greatly in the ten years after Khrushchev's fall, much of the increase was due to industrial progress; agriculture continued to lag far behind, resulting in regular agricultural crises, especially in 1972 and 1975. Brezhnev and his successors continued Khrushchev's precedent of buying grain from the West rather than suffer shortfalls and starvation. Neither Brezhnev nor his colleagues were personally popular, and the new government relied on authoritarian power. The government's conservative tendencies would lead to the crushing of the "Prague Spring" of 1968.


Decree of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet "On the transfer of the Crimean Oblast." In 1954, the Soviet leadership, including Khrushchev, transferred Crimea from the Russian SFSR to the Ukrainian SSR.
Though Khrushchev's strategy failed to achieve the major goals he sought, Aleksandr Fursenko, who wrote a book analyzing Khrushchev's foreign and military policies, argued that the strategy did coerce the West in a limited manner. The agreement that the US would not invade Cuba has been adhered to. The refusal of the western world to acknowledge East Germany was gradually eroded, and, in 1975, the US and other NATO members signed the Helsinki Agreement with the USSR and Warsaw Pact nations.

The Russian public's view of Khrushchev remains mixed.[ According to a major Russian pollster, the only eras of the 20th century that Russians in the 21st century evaluate positively are those under Nicholas II and Khrushchev. A poll in 1998 of young Russians found that they felt Nicholas II had done more good than harm, and all other 20th-century Russian leaders more harm than good—except Khrushchev, about whom they were evenly divided. Khrushchev biographer William Tompson related the former premier's reforms to those which occurred later:

Throughout the Brezhnev years and the lengthy interregnum that followed, the generation which had come of age during the "first Russian spring" of the 1950s awaited its turn in power. As Brezhnev and his colleagues died or were pensioned off, they were replaced by men and women for whom the Secret Speech and the first wave of de-Stalinization had been a formative experience, and these "Children of Twentieth Congress" took up the reins of power under the leadership of Mikhail Gorbachev and his colleagues. The Khrushchev era provided this second generation of reformers with both an inspiration and a cautionary tale.

== Was Khrushchev Revisionist? ==
[[File:Mao.png]] Anti-revisionists [[File:Stalin.png]][[File:Hoxha.png]] have often accused Khrushchev of revisionism due to his denounce of Stalin's totalitarian rule and rehabilitation of many political dissidents under Stalin era, the peaceful coexistence theory, as well as the renounce of DOTP and several changes to the economy aimed at decentralizing the Soviet economy. However, unlike Deng and Gorbachev's reforms, Khrushchev didn't introduce market mechanisms in the economy and maintained the Soviet-style planned economy, even nationalizing the cooperatives that were previously legal under Stalin (However he did somewhat decentralize the economy). Additionally, Khrushchev also restarted another wave of crackdown on religion in the USSR. Despite Khrushchev's increasing of political pluralism within the CPSU, he maintained the one-party state structure intact, and so are most elements of the ML system, making his reforms relatively minor compared to the ones in Hungary, Poland, and China. 

[[File:AES.png]] Brezhnevists [[File:Brezhnev.png]], however, have a different assessment on Khrushchev. Rather than accusing Khrushchev of revisionism like the anti-revisionists, Brezhnevists blames his argicultural failures and de-Stalinization campaign as "voluntarism" and "opportunism", but generally still recognize him as a real communist. Additionally, contrary to popular myths, Khrushchev thaw was not only ended by Brezhnev, but also by Khrushchev himself, who grew increasingly conservative due to the criticisms within the CPSU and backlash against his reforms. Khrushchev ended the cultural thaw in 1962 and tigthened party control over independent media, arts, and culture due to fears of the CPSU losing the grip over the civil society. This was a policy that the Brezhnevists continued as they strengthened the authoritarian rule over the public after the overthrow of Khrushchev.

It was this man who was deciding the fate of prominent Party workers. He also was [[File:Krit.png]] [[Kritarchy|making judgments]] concerning the politics in these matters, because, having established their “crime,” he thereby provided materials from which important political implications could be drawn. The question arises whether a man [[File:CommieKakis.png]] with such an intellect could–by himself–have conducted his investigations in a manner proving the guilt of people such as [[File:Kosior.png]] Kosior and others. No, he could not have done it without proper directives. At the Central Committee Presidium session he told us: “I was told that [[File:Kosior.png]] Kosior and [[File:Chubar.png]] Chubar were people's enemies and for this reason I, [[File:Krit.png]] as an investigative judge, had to make them confess that they were enemies.” He would do this only through long tortures, which he did, receiving detailed instructions from [[File:Beria.png]] [[Police Statism|Beria]]. We must say that at the Central Committee Presidium session he cynically declared: “I thought that I was executing the orders of the Party.”
