Résumé:

Both well-known and previously unpublished photographs join to present a new image of the 1930s, exposing gaps in our understanding of the important era of the New Deal in the U.S. and the Communist Five-Year Plans in the U.S.S.R.
The photographs are as different as the two nations themselves during the period. Yet a close comparison also reveals a number of striking similarities. For example, photographs were used on a large scale for various kinds of propaganda in both countries -- in some cases with the photographer's consent, in others without it. The accompanying texts provide, where possible, information about the people shown in the photographs and the photographers.
