Product Description

Review

"In attempting a multifaceted examination of the Khrushchev-era party leadership, this volume sheds new light on the post-Stalinist Soviet Union, and raises new questions for future research." - Polly Jones, Davis Center for Historical Studies, Princeton University, NJ; Slavonic and East European Review (vol. 89, no. 4, October 2011)

"The story that unfolds in this revealing, stimulating survey is the failure of Khrushchev’s attempts to match the achievements of capitalism without capitalism. Time and again he was frustrated by the interest groups that eventually removed him from power. This book provides fascinating glimpses into the formation of these interest groups, which acted in their own rather than in the national interest...All in all, this is a valuable addition to the study of the Khrushchev period." - Martin McCauley, Slavic Review (vol. 71, no. 1, Spring 2012)
