Before leading the Soviet Revolution against the Capitalist oppressors Stalin was a renowned Georgian poet under the name of Soselo. Later in life Stalin was the General Secretary of the Communist Party from 1922 - 1953, and de facto ruler of the Soviet Union from around 1928. Stalin rapidly industrialised the USSR, which was instrumental in the defeat of Nazi Germany during World War II. However, this industrialisation came at the cost of millions of lives lost in forced labour and the infamous gulags. Stalin also pushed forward with collectivism in farming and his regime saw many advances in science, although areas considered ideologically opposed to the Soviet system (such as genetics) were denied or ignored. Under Stalin, however, education and health care improved and, by Stalin’s death, most Soviet citizens had access to a good education and to comprehensive health care.
Stalin’s influence on Soviet culture most manifested itself in the Socialist Realist style he sanctioned and, indeed, demanded. This style married a classic, realistic form with blatant Stalinist propaganda. This manifested itself in every aspect of the arts - the paintings of the era; Russian propaganda posters; the neoclassical Soviet architecture and the re-popularisation of Russian and East European traditional musical styles being only a few examples. Stalin’s most prominent musical legacy is his replacement of the Soviet national anthem - from the revolutionary Internationale to the Stalin-glorifying, one-country Socialist Hymn of the Soviet Union (written by Russian author Sergey Mikhalkov) - which is
