In this critically acclaimed book, now available in paperback,
noted scholar Daniel Treisman offers a refreshing and exhaustively
reported look at the political, economic, and cultural changes in
Russia, with an in-depth examination of the modern state and its
role in global affairs.
Almost twenty-five years after Mikhail Gorbachev began radically
reshaping his country, Russia has changed beyond recognition. In
his third book on this subject, Professor Daniel Treisman takes
stock of the country that has emerged from the debris of Soviet
communism and addresses the questions that preoccupy scholars of
its history and politics: Why did the Soviet Union disintegrate?
Could its collapse have been avoided? Did Yeltsin destroy too much
or too little of the Soviet political order? What explains Putin's
unprecedented popularity with the Russian public?
Based on two decades of research and his own experiences in the
country, Treisman cuts through the scholarly and journalistic
debates to provide a portrait of a country returning to the
international community on its own terms. At a time when global
politics are more important than ever, "The Return " illuminates
the inner workings of a country that has increasingly come to
influence, and which will continue to shape, American foreign
policy and world events.
