The author provides insightful analysis and nuanced interpretations of such key—and controversial—issues as the domestic sources of Soviet foreign policy, Stalin's leadership in World War II, Russian-American relations in the Reagan era, the causes of the collapse of the USSR, and the disappointments of Russia's post-Soviet evolution. With his incisive assessment of the biases and blunders in American interpretations, Dallin rejects single-factor explanations for Soviet and Russian domestic and foreign policies, instead examining the complex interplay of internal and external conditions, institutions, mindsets, and the role of individual leaders. All readers interested in Soviet and post-Soviet history will find this collection a stimulating and deeply knowledgeable resource.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: USItem Height: 240mmItem Length: 163mmItem Width: 24mmItem Weight: 544gAuthor: Alexander DallinContributor: Gail W.
