Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Stalin's great purges were primarily aimed at eliminating any potential political opposition or threat to his leadership. This included loyal old Bolsheviks who may have had differing opinions or loyalties to other leaders in the party, and may have been perceived as a threat to Stalin's position of power. Purges were also used as a means to instill fear and maintain control over the Soviet population. There is no evidence to suggest that the purges were aimed at young up-and-coming Communists, foreign agents, or industrial and agricultural workers.
