abstract
  • Lazar Moiseyevich Kaganovich (22 November 1893 – 25 July 1991) was a Soviet politician and administrator and a close associate of Joseph Stalin. His ruthless efficiency in carrying out Stalin's massive purges earned him the nickname "Iron Lazar". Indeed, Kaganovich took few steps to save his own brother when he was accused of counter-revolutionary activities. Historians generally hold Kanagonvich responsible for the 1932-33 famine in the Ukraine. Kaganovich survived Stalin's death, for a time serving as a mentor of Nikita Khrushchev. When Khrushchev became increasingly critical of Stalin, Kaganovich joined with other Stalin loyalists in an attempt to oust Khrushchev from the Communist Party. However, the party coup failed, and Kaganovich was forced to retire from the Presidium and was eventually expelled from the party. He was the last of the Old Bolsheviks, dying at the age of 97 in 1991, just a few months before the Soviet Union itself collapsed.
