The USSR and the Struggle for Collective Security”, from the online course “The Road to Victory”, prepared by HSE University and the BRICS Expert Council-Russia, with the support of the Civil BRICS Council. This video course is dedicated to an important and timely subject—the role of the USSR in the defeat of fascism during the Second World War. In the context of ongoing historical debates and attempts to distort the memory of those events, the course aims to restore an objective and compelling understanding of the developments that changed the course of world history. Lecture 1. “The World on the Eve of the Second World War. The USSR and the Struggle for Collective Security,” explores the international situation before the outbreak of the war and the key developments that preceded it. It examines how the USSR sought to ensure its own security while becoming one of the principal participants in the struggle against Nazi Germany. The course also looks in detail at mobilization efforts, industrialization, wartime evacuation, diplomatic initiatives, and the impact of international political developments. Particular attention is paid to the manipulation of historical memory and how the falsification and distortion of historical facts have become obstacles to understanding and recognizing the Soviet Union’s role in achieving victory. The course emphasizes the importance of restoring historical justice so that the memory of the Great Patriotic War remains alive for every generation. The memory of the Great Patriotic War is more than a collection of historical facts. It also carries profound emotional, moral, and patriotic significance, capable of strengthening social cohesion and preserving historical identity. Our goal is to inspire viewers to feel personally connected to this history, so that it is understood not as a dry chronology of events, but as a living and meaningful legacy.
