About this product

Product Information

Countless studies have assessed the dramatic reforms of Mikhail Gorbachev, but their analysis of the impact on European communism has focused overwhelmingly on the Soviet Union and Eastern bloc nations. This ambitious collection takes a much broader view, reconstructing and evaluating the historical trajectories of glasnost and perestroika on both sides of the Iron Curtain. Moving beyond domestic politics and foreign relations narrowly defined, the research gathered here constitutes a transnational survey of these reforms' collective impact, showing how they were variably received and implemented, and how they shaped the prospects for "proletarian internationalism" in diverse political contexts.

"Perestroika and the Party gives a comprehensive look at how different national parties reacted to Mikhail Gorbachev's program of reform. Its case studies are fascinatingly detailed and make useful additions to the larger historical literature." * Edward Cohn, Grinnell College, "Written by well-known historians and political scientists, the book addresses an underexplored topic in detail and therefore will be of interest to specialists of communism, party politics, and the political Left in Europe." * Choice "Perestroika and the Party gives a comprehensive look at how different national parties reacted to Mikhail Gorbachev's program of reform.
