Not so long ago the name of the famous Soviet miner-record holder did not descend from newspaper pages.He was not only a symbol of a great country, but honest work, self-sacrifice.And he gave impetus to the development of the movement, named after his name.What lies behind the person named Stakhanov?The feat?Tragedy?Or both?
feat of Stakhanov
Surname famous Soviet miner-record holder was known to all: and schoolchildren and university students.His glorified at party congresses, and set an example, they prided themselves on the international scene.But just as quickly forgot about it, although his innovative approach to work and is used today.
simple worker collier deserves not only respect, but also the scorn and hatred.Though his guilt is not: he had worked honestly, and what made it a symbol of progress - a merit promotion and the authorities of the time.Woke miner famous August 31, 1935 after his team one shift produced coal is several times higher than expected rate.Andrew (that later he was forced to change his name to Alex because of a typo in the newspaper "Pravda") worked with two timber-man, inviting them to strengthen the mine, in order to avoid collapse, and he focused only on cutting carbon.Thus, instead of the seven tons, they were able to get one hundred and two.
Background Stakhanov movement
turns out the name of the famous Soviet miner-record holder has become synonymous is not accidental.Simple worker was innovator, therefore made a proposal on how to increase productivity at the mine.As the authorities at that time promoted the feats of labor and touted the people to work harder for the common good, the management responded very quickly.To change that legendary Stakhanov all been carefully prepared: brought new equipment, lit the place of production, have prepared a scope of work.But behind the scenes the attention of journalists and cameras were assistants Alexey-Andrew.
should be noted that based on the proposal of the famous miner productivity increased significantly, first in his native Stakhanov mine, then the entire industry.And then the idea of the division of labor began to use widely in other areas of the economy.
Life miner
Although the name of the famous Soviet miner-record holder did not descend from the pages of printed publications, and he began to imitate other work, private life of this man was not entirely successful.In his career was taking off, he was patronized by Stalin himself, he wrote letters to the whole Union, but is a simple hard worker could become a good leader, as required by the Party?And if he wanted it?From the glory and feeling of uselessness (because he just wanted to work) Stakhanov gash.They manipulated like toy: like - transferred to another mine boss, want - decree forced to relocate, leaving his family in the same place, demanded all new records.Last miner-champion of the USSR began to be forgotten, lost among the foremost names of the other, and his fate is no one else was interested.
spent big cog mechanism
in the movement for the construction of a new world-record holder miner, whose name is assigned to both the city and the mines, and numerous streets, played a huge role.But was he happy?Probably not, otherwise would not go into heavy drinking, marrying several times.A star of the Hero of Socialist Labor, he handed in his declining years, could not please him, and only caused stress.
Stakhanov addicted to alcohol is the same glory, because after the speeches and meetings with intellectuals and party leaders always put on the table.From alcohol and died, although the official did not disclose.The effects of chronic alcoholism (deep sclerosis, stroke, delirium tremens) led yesterday's hero in a psychiatric hospital.There he went into another world November 5, 1977, without regaining consciousness.The last refuge of the legendary miner became the central cemetery of the city of Torez.
