Soviet economic policy in the 1960s–1980s is a phenomenon that has been attempted to be explained more often by columnists and conspiracy theorists than by historians. The lack of works attempting a comprehensive analysis has led to the fact that most of the key questions associated with this era remain unanswered. What were the goals and objectives of the Soviet economy at that time? Why did it need certain reforms? Under what conditions did the reforms take place and which actors participated in them? Nikolai Mitrokhin’s book is an analysis of the practice of making economic decisions in the USSR by key political and state institutions. Using interviews and memoirs of representatives of the highest Soviet bureaucracy, as well as documents of the Soviet leadership used for the first time, the researcher seeks to reconstruct the mechanics of managing the Soviet economy in the last decades of its existence. Particular attention is paid to the reforms that were carried out in 1965–1969, 1979–1980, and 1982–1989. Nikolai Mitrokhin is a candidate of historical sciences, a specialist in the history of late Soviet society, and currently works at the University of Bremen (Germany).
