About the Book
Soviet foreign policy changed dramatically in the 1980s. This book tells a story of battles where ideas that challenged the status quo were turned into policies. It details the strategies used by the Gorbachev coalition to shift the balance of power in favor of constituencies pushing new ideas, while undermining the power of old constituencies.
