Read an excerpt from a modern historian’s essay describing proposals to change the text of the CPSU(b) Program in the post-war period: “The idea was also expressed of introducing direct popular legislation, for which it was considered mandatory: a) to hold a popular vote and make decisions on most of the most important issues of state life as a general political, economic order, and on issues of life and cultural construction; b) broadly develop legislative initiative from below by granting public organizations the right to submit proposals on new bills to the Supreme Soviet of the USSR; c) approve the right of citizens and public organizations to directly submit requests to the Supreme Council on the most important issues of international and domestic politics.

Read an excerpt from a modern historian's work. “Khrushchev took a huge personal risk, no less than when Beria was arrested. It was necessary to act quickly and decisively, relying on the support of trusted people. Even Khrushchev himself and his inner circle were not sinless, although their responsibility for those crimes is much less than other members of the party. And yet the risk, although great, was justified.
The opinion was expressed that the condemnation of Stalin at the congress was undertaken mainly in order to rationalize the system of bureaucratic administration and even to strengthen the privileges and power of the nomenklatura. Even more often the opinion was expressed that Khrushchev's speech at the congress became a decisive episode in the struggle for power in the party. Taking the initiative, Khrushchev dealt a blow to such close associates of Stalin as Molotov, Kaganovich, Malenkov, Voroshilov, Mikoyan, whose presence in the Presidium interfered with him. Much of Khrushchev's behavior is connected with his personal qualities. Khrushchev was really worried about the plight of the workers and especially the peasants. He was also worried about the plight of prisoners, who for no reason were thrown into camps and prisons for many years. The text of the report was sent to all district committees and city committees of the party. ”In what year did the events described in it take place?

Read a passage from a modern historian's writing.
“The fact is that the 20th Congress, which really broke the back of Stalinism, there is no doubt about it, nevertheless, has not been completed until today, because the de-Stalinization of Russia did not occur. It did not happen in terms of society's ideas. Because many idealize Stalin. That is, in my opinion, as before, Stalin has not been fully exposed and Stalinism has not been exposed, there is still an idealization of Stalinism. Until now, Stalin's repressive machine has not been broken, the special services, which are still not controlled by society and still often operate in a lawless regime. Until now, the very model of power has not been broken as an irresistible force against which the opposition itself, which is a crime against the state, cannot be resisted. Therefore, although the 20th Congress dealt, in my opinion, a huge blow, maybe a mortal blow to Stalinism, but this hydra of Stalinism, this terrible phenomenon, Stalinism is still alive and therefore the 20th Congress has not ended.
