 Nikita Khrushchev - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In 1958, Khrushchev replaced Georgy Malenkov as prime minister and established himself as the undisputed leader of both state and party.
The Case of Khrushchev's Shoe, by Nina Khrushcheva (Nikita's granddaughter), New Statesman, Oct. 2, 2000.

 Russia - The Khrushchev Era
Khrushchev retired as a private citizen after his successors denounced him for his "hare-brained schemes, half-baked conclusions, and hasty decisions." Yet along with his failed policies, Khrushchev must also be remembered for his public disavowal of Stalinism and the greater flexibility he brought to Soviet leadership after a long period of monolithic terror.
Khrushchev became prime minister in March 1958 when Bulganin resigned, thus formally confirming his predominant position in the state as well as in the party.
Malenkov found a formidable rival in Khrushchev, whom the Presidium elected first secretary (Stalin's title of general secretary was abolished after his death) in September 1953.

In 1938 he was transferred to the Ukraine as first secretary of the Ukrainian party organization and made a provisional member of the party Politburo; he became a full member in 1939 and was also appointed to the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet.
After the death of Joseph Stalin in 1953, Khrushchev became first secretary of the Central Committee, in effect the head of the Communist party of the USSR.
In 1956, during the 20th Party Congress, Khrushchev took an unprecedented step and denounced Stalin and his methods.

 The Rise of Khrushchev
This was the political background to Khrushchev's ascendancy.
On Khrushchev's motion, the Supreme Soviet which heard the announcement of Malenkov's resignation promptly elected Bulganin as the new Prime Minister.
The Party Secretariat was reduced from ten to five: Khrushchev was assisted by Suslov, former head of the Agitprop Department of the Central Committee, Pospelov, Shatalin, Ignatiev, former head of the MGB (Ministry of State security).

 Biography: Nikita Khrushchev
After Stalin's death in 1953, Khrushchev became the Party's First Secretary in the collective leadership that emerged after it had eliminated Lavrenti Beria and his faction.
He spent the rest of his life in peaceful retirement, and was the only Soviet leader not to be buried in the Kremlin wall after his death.
Khrushchev never regained his prestige after the incident, and was quietly ousted two years later by opponents in the Politburo--significantly, with no bloodshed.

The 20th Party Congress in 1956 paved the way for a period of reforms inaugurated by Nikita S. Khrushchev.

 Khrushchev - Johnson's Russia List 4-3-03
When Khrushchev was at last deposed in 1964, in part because his shoe-banging performance at the U.N. had embarrassed the Soviet Union, he profited from his own reforms.
The darkest period of Russian history was his golden age.
Khrushchev astonished the General Assembly by taking off his brown loafer and banging it on the table as if it were a spoon on an infant's high chair, except that in this case the banging had an apocalyptic implication.

Ruler of the Soviet Union during the first decade after Stalin's death, Khrushchev left a contradictory stamp on his country and on the world.
Complicit in terrible Stalinist crimes, Khrushchev nevertheless retained his humanity: his daring attempt to reform communism prepared the ground for its eventual collapse; and his awkward efforts to ease the cold war triggered its most dangerous crises.

 TIME Person of the Year: A Photo History, Nikita Khrushchev
Nikita Khrushchev was named TIME Man of the Year in 1957
TIME wrote "In 1957's twelve months, Nikita Khrushchev, peasant's son and cornfield commissar scorned by the party's veteran intellectuals, disposed all his serious rivals — at least for the time." Khrushchev toured the U.S. and met with Eisenhower in 1959.
A Soviet loyalist and Stalin's trusted heir, Khrushchev was also responsible for an opening up of the country and "de-Stalinization." In 1956, as Soviet premier, he denounced his former patron and set into motion a new freedom.
