Download or read book Perestroika and the Party written by Francesco Di Palma and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2019-08-01 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Countless studies have assessed the dramatic reforms of Mikhail Gorbachev, but their analysis of the impact on European communism has focused overwhelmingly on the Soviet Union and Eastern bloc nations. This ambitious collection takes a much broader view, reconstructing and evaluating the historical trajectories of glasnost and perestroika on both sides of the Iron Curtain. Moving beyond domestic politics and foreign relations narrowly defined, the research gathered here constitutes a transnational survey of these reforms’ collective impact, showing how they were variably received and implemented, and how they shaped the prospects for “proletarian internationalism” in diverse political contexts.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A National Book Critics Circle Award Finalist “Essential reading for the twenty-first [century].” —Radhika Jones, The New York Times Book Review In the first comprehensive biography of Mikhail Gorbachev, William Taubman shows how a peasant boy clambered to the top of a system designed to keep people like him down, found common ground with America’s arch-conservative president Ronald Reagan, and permitted the USSR and its East European empire to break apart without using force to preserve them. Drawing on interviews with Gorbachev himself, transcripts and documents from the Russian archives, and interviews with Kremlin aides and adversaries, Taubman’s intensely personal portrait extends to Gorbachev’s remarkable marriage to a woman he deeply loved. Nuanced and poignant, yet unsparing and honest, this sweeping account has all the amplitude of a great Russian novel.

Download or read book Conversations with Gorbachev written by Mikhail Gorbachev and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2012-08-14 with total page 255 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mikhail Gorbachev and Zdenek Mlynar were friends for half a century, since they first crossed paths as students in 1950. Although one was a Russian and the other a Czech, they were both ardent supporters of communism and socialism. One took part in laying the groundwork for and carrying out the Prague spring; the other opened a new political era in Soviet world politics. In 1993 they decided that their conversations might be of interest to others and so they began to tape-record them. This book is the product of that “thinking out loud” process. It is an absorbing record of two friends trying to explain to one another their views on the problems and events that determined their destinies. From reminiscences of their starry-eyed university days to reflections on the use of force to “save socialism” to contemplation of the end of the cold war, here is a far more candid picture of Gorbachev than we have ever seen before.

Book excerpt: The downfall of the Soviet Union was an unexpected incident, which was neither forecast by Sovietologists nor aimed at by the initiators of perestroika. However, the result of this world historical development was deep changes in international relations; the bipolar world changed to unipolar and the Cold War was over. It is not a surprise that perestroika has inspired widely as well the academic community as the politicians and public to discuss and analyse the political and social processes of the Soviet society, the role of economy, the political and military pressure of President Reagan's administration, and glasnost, not to forget the new foreign policy of Mikhail Gorbachev and Eduard Shevardnadze. In this book, perestroika is approached as an evolutionary process that led to unintended consequences, the breakdown of the Soviet Union. But perestroika and glasnost were transnational processes and consequently they did not have consequences only in the Soviet Union. The common understanding is that, at the least, Prague Spring in 1968, the economic reforms of Hungary and Poland in the 1970s, and the Solidarity opposition movements of eighties in Poland established a strong prehistory of the way to perestroika and new thinking. After perestroika and glasnost were launched by Gorbachev, in particular during its deeper reforms of the late eighties, it had a profound influence on all of Eastern Europe and to some extent on Western Europe. Moreover, we can't understand many features and processes of current Russia if we don't know the history of the Soviet Union. It is obvious that many structural and institutional solutions of current Russia, not to speak of political culture, go back to the Soviet era and the power struggle between President Yeltsin and Parliament in the beginning of nineties. The consequences of perestroika and the legacy of the Soviet Union are discussed in several articles, which also take into account the development of Eastern Europe as an integral part of the Soviet sphere of influence.
