The Constitution of 1936, also known as the Stalin Constitution, guaranteed Soviet citizens a range of rights, including the right to work, rest, and leisure, as well as the right to education and healthcare. It also promised freedom of speech, press, assembly, and religion, although these rights were heavily restricted in practice. The constitution aimed to portray the Soviet Union as a democratic state, emphasizing the role of the working class and the importance of socialist principles. However, in reality, the government maintained strict control over many aspects of life, limiting the true exercise of these rights.
