Yuri Nikolayevich Zhukov (Russian: Юрий Николаевич Жуков, born on 22 January 1938, in Krasnogorsk) is a Russian historian[1] and researcher at the Institute of Russian History at Russian Academy of Sciences.[2][3] Zhukov published several books that glorify Stalin, such as "Renaissance of Stalin" and "Handbook of Stalinist".[4]

Zhukov argued that Stalin was not personally responsible for the Great Purge and shifted the blame onto Jews[5] and subordinates of Stalin.[6][7] According to Zhukov, Stalin had conducted liberal reforms in the USSR, and launched the purges against real threats to Soviet security. Zhukov has also argued that Stalin "saved the country and the world" from Trotsky, Kamenev and Zinoviev by executing them before, in his view, their revolutionary politics brought the USSR into conflict with the world.[8] According to Gennady Kostyrchenko, "the main pathos of almost all Yuri Zhukov's historical works that have been published during the last 15-17 years are almost exclusively aimed at moral-political rehabilitation of Stalin."[9]
