A comprehensive overview of twentieth-century Russian history that treats the years from 1917 to 1991 as a single period and analyses the peculiar mixture of political, economic and social ingredients that made up the Soviet compound. It takes the reader from the age of communist rule to the changes that occurred in 1991, since which Russia has encountered multiple difficulties in eradicating the legacy of communism.
