Octavo, softcover, near fine in orange pictorial wraps. 267 pp. including index. Provides a broad perspective on the first five years of perestroika in the USSR. Respected scholars examine economic, political, and social change; nationalities, health, and environmental issues; the cultural scene; and the evolving international order. The insights of this group of authors should stimulate reconsideration of fundamental issues by specialists. Mikhail Gorbachev has helped bring about a revolution whose repercussions are being felt worldwide. Despite the enormous systemic problems hampering reform, Soviet politics, cultural life, and social institutions have been profoundly altered since 1985. In international affairs, the changes have been even more dramatic. European security issues have been transformed, the satellites are returning to independent paths of development and communism has lost its claim to being a global revolutionary force. Book.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Examines the significant failures Russia has faced under Vladimir Putins leadership and presents an important counterpoint to a broad range of studies emphasizing Russias resurrection, status as a persistent power, or successful military reform. Despite Putins claims of restoring Russias rightful place in the world, reviving the economic and industrial capacity destroyed in the 1990s, and improving living standards, data show that the gains from the oil price bonanza of 2000-2008 have long since vanished. The success Putin has achieved in centralizing power and repressing opposition now prevents any effective changes to address Russias long-term decline. Failures include the inability to diversify the economy, reduce corruption, reverse demographic and educational decline, alleviate poverty, or address social inequalities. This edited volume examines how Putins policy choices have led to Russias inexorable decline on the global stage. Depicting Russias inability under Vladimir Putins rule to improve critical spheres of its national life, aggravated by military belligerence and adventurism abroad, chapters detail how Putin's policies have severely limited Russia's development and institutional stability, leaving the country without a clear leadership transition mechanism or capacity to abandon flawed policies. Examines the significant failures Russia has faced under Vladimir Putins leadership and presents an important counterpoint to a broad range of studies emphasizing Russias resurrection, status as a persistent power, or successful military reform.
