The Dismantling of Communism: Thirty Years Later
19.99 €
This book is dedicated to the 30th anniversary of the fall of the Soviet Union, which culminated in a cascade of collapses of communist regimes in Eastern Europe. With each decade that separates us from these events, our view of their consequences has shifted—from rational optimism and faith in the reforms of the 1990s to pessimism due to the anti-liberal tendencies of the 2010s. The book's authors, leading researchers, historians, and social thinkers from Russia, Europe, and the United States, present the reader with a cross-section of contemporary understandings and interpretations of both the process of communist disintegration itself and the key issues of post-communist development. The collection has two opposing foci: on the one hand, understanding the past through the prism of today's social reality, and on the other, analyzing the current situation through the lens of the past. Complementing each other, these approaches allow us to create a comprehensive picture of the dismantling of the communist system and identify the blocking mechanisms that operate in various transition scenarios.
