Based on personal experience of life in the Soviet Union Nove
explains the phenomenon of Stalinism and its aftermath. In highly
readable style, Professor Nove traces the origins of Stalinism,
analyzes its nature and achievements, examines the process of
destalinization which followed Stalin's death, and explores the
evolution of the Soviet system under Krushchev and Brezhnev.
Stalinism and After is not a biography; it is a study of the effect
of the political personalities of one man and his successors on the
development of Soviet history. It is within this context that
Professor Nove examines the new thinking of Gorbachev and the
now-familiar catchwords of his regime: perestroika, glasnost,
demokratizatsiya, and uskoreniye.
