	Yezhov, Nikolay Ivanovich - MSN Encarta
		Nikolay Ivanovich Yezhov (1895-1940), chief of the Soviet secret police, the NKVD (Russian acronym for People’s Commissariat of Internal Affairs) from 1936 to 1938, and organizer of Soviet leader Joseph Stalin’s violent purges of the Communist Party.
		By 1935 Yezhov became chairman of that commission and secretary of the Central Committee with oversight for the NKVD, a predecessor agency of the KGB.
		In 1937 Yezhov became a member of the Politburo, the USSR’s highest decision-making body, but after appointing Yezhov people’s commissar of water transport in April 1938, Stalin dismissed him as NKVD chief toward the end of the year, replacing him with Lavrenty Beria.

		On March 3, 1939 Yezhov was relieved of all his posts in the Central Committee of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union.

	Nikolai Ivanovich YEZHOV - Kolya and Kostya, nicknames
		Yezhov had fl hair, "a shock of fl hair," and green eyes and, to paraphrase Roy Medvedev, was a rather SHY GUY, very friendly to work with also, by all accounts prior to his promotion to Head of NKVD overlooking the GUBG.
		Yezhov had a 6 year old daughter, was living with her and his mother in a modest Kremlin apartment in 1937.
		Yezhov not only cracked and took to drink, didn't eat or sleep right, but later on, after he was relieved of his job as NKVD chief and transferred to Water Transport, he (was accused) poisoned his wife out of jealousy and/or suspicion.

	Nikolai Yezhov
		Yezhov quickly arranged the arrest of all the leading political figures in the Soviet Union who were critical of Stalin.
		In 1937 Yezhov arranged the arrest of Genrikh Yagoda, the former head of the NKVD.
		Yezhov had a limp, and I remember Podvoiski, who liked to lecture people about the qualities of a true Bolshevik, scolding me for my laziness and telling me to follow the example of Yezhov who danced the gopak despite his lame leg.

		Yezhov es considerado por los mismos rusos como el peor de los personajes que llegaron rodear a Stalin durante sus treinta aÃ±os de poder, habÃa quienes lo llamaban Â«cosa monstruosaÂ» y no dudaban al decir que Yezhov habÃa caÃdo en desgracia en el momento que conociÃ³ personalmente a Stalin.
		Yezhov siempre se destacÃ³ por seguir, acatar, y completar todas las Ã³rdenes que le emitÃan sus superiores y eso era justo lo que andaba buscando Stalin: hombres de confianza que pudieran con su audacia cometer todos los crÃmenes que Stalin les ordenarÃa.
		Yezhov reclutÃ³ equipos de doscientos y trescientos fanÃ¡ticos del partido para que ejecutaran una purga sistemÃ¡tica en la policÃa secreta.

		Whatever lay behind Yezhov's ruthlessness, Khayutina suffered for it from her early years, when she was orphaned, to the decades when she roamed Russia's barren far north, moving on whenever her identity was discovered.
		Yezhov was appointed head of the NKVD, the forerunner of the KGB, in 1936, as Stalin's purges of his political rivals and imaginary enemies gathered momentum.
		Yezhov set quotas for prisoners to be taken in every region, prompting officials to keep up their numbers by thumbing through telephone directories, looking for victims with foreign-sounding names against whom allegations of spying could be concocted.

		Under Yezhov, the purges reached their height, with roughly half of the Soviet political and military establishment being imprisoned or shot, along with hundreds of thousands of others, suspected of disloyalty or "wrecking".
		Yezhov also conducted a thorough purge of the security organs, both NKVD and GRU, removing and shooting many officials who had been appointed by his predecessors Yagoda and Menzhinsky.
		The apex of Yezhov's ascendancy was reached on 20 December 1937, when the party hosted a giant gala to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the NKVD at the Bolshoi Theater.

		The crucial document is contained in a file on Nikolai Yezhov, the head of the people's commissariat for internal affairs or NKVD, (formerly the OGPU and subsequently the KGB) in the late 1930s.
		Yezhov, only 5ft tall and nicknamed the "bloodthirsty dwarf", was responsible for pushing through Stalin's purges of Red Army officers and old Bolshevik dissidents.
		One of those who escaped Yezhov's reign of terror was General Walter Krivitisky, who fled to the west.

		Yezhov llega a la NKVD después de la remoción de Yagoda, que se desempeñaba como director de la OGPU y a quien Stalin le pierde la confianza debido a que bajo su mando no logró reunir las suficientes pruebas para aniquilar a Bujarin, uno de sus más peligrosos y jurados enemigos políticos.
		Yezhov es considerado por los mismos rusos como el más nefasto de los personajes que llegaron rodear a Stalin durante sus treinta años de poder, había quienes lo llamaban «cosa monstruosa» y no dudaban al decir que Yezhov había caído en desgracia en el momento que conoció personalmente a Stalin.

		For most, the murder of Kirov in late 1934 marks the onset, though the machinery of mass murder didn't kick into overdrive until Nikolai Yezhov was named as head of the NKVD (a new acronym for the secret police, standing for the "People's Commissariat of Internal Affairs") in 1936.
		Yezhov was a perfect protagonist for the Purge: a man of dwarfish height, hysterical, cruel, and usually described by contemporaries as a sociopath.
		Yezhov for his part was not entirely pleased with the way the purge had gone down in the Caucasus, as Beria's clients were virtually untouched.

		Appointed to the job to uncover betrayers and traitors and to purge the country of enemy elements, he himself caused as much harm as maybe all of the betrayers and traitors combined.
		But Yezhov had his agents specialize in taking innocent citizens from their beds, while they forgot how to catch real saboteurs.
		We want to hope that Yezhov’s mistakes will be eliminated and corrected, that the NKVD will begin to really fight elements hostile to Soviet rule and that honest workers will be assured normal and tranquil working conditions.

		The episode in which characters spray the walls of an office with poison is based on actual accusations that came to light in March 1938 in the trial of the so-called "right-Trotskyite block," including, among others, Bukharin, Rykov, Krestinskii, and Yagoda.
		Yagoda had been removed as head of the NKVD in 1936 and supposedly fearing implication in the murder of Kirov (in 1934) he had his secretary Bulanov spray the walls of his successor Yezhov's office with poison.
		Of course Yagoda's name could not be mentioned in print after his removal (neither could Yezhov's a few months later).

		There are some interesting facts and accounts of Yezhov's formative adult years, but the authors, for the sake of accuracy and at the expense of novelistic character construction, devoted most of their concise book to studying the five foot one inch murderer from the time he gained prominence in the NKVD and Party apparatus.
		Lest I equivocate, my own conclusion of Yezhov is that he was a pusillanimous killer who betrayed and murdered far too many persons to ever be shown the light of historical rehabilitation.
		In some ways Yezhov was more a pathetic than an evil character, unfortunately falling under the spell of a brilliant but evil man. Good-natured and helpful before getting drawn into Stalin's work of repression, Yezhov would degenerate into a torturer and murderer, incapable of distinguishing true from imaginary charges.

		Lots of "outside" (non-Leningrad) NKVD men were involved in these interrogations and investigations; this would have been far too risky if Stalin or Yezhov had anything to hide.

		The purge targeted all categories of the society: members of the Communist Party, the government, the armed forces and the intelligentsia, as well as "anti-Soviet elements" among peasants (kulaks), in industry, and in transport.
		The height of the purge occurred while the Soviet secret police (the NKVD) was headed by Nikolai Yezhov, from September 1936 to August 1938; this period is often referred to as the Yezhovschina ("Yezhov storm").
		By the summer of 1938, everyone in power realized that the purges had gone too far, and Yezhov was relieved from his head of NKVD post (remaining People's Commissar of Water Transport) and eventually purged.

		As the above examples suggest, the campaigns were further fuelled by the "denunciation quotas" established under the authority of Nikolai Yezhov, who took over as head of the NKVD in September 1936 and immediately widened the scope of secret-police persecutions.
