Gennady Andreevich Zyuganov is the leader of Russia's resurgent
Communist Party and was Boris Yeltsin's strongest challenger in the
summer 1996 presidential elections. Although his face became
familiar to the world at that time, his ideas and his program were
mainly a subject of speculation. This book makes Zyuganov available
to American readers for the first time -- in his own words.
A former village teacher from Orel Province, Zyuganov came to
Moscow in the 1980s to work in the ideology department of the
Communist Party of the Soviet Union and to complete doctoral work
in philosophy at Moscow State University. He is a prolific writer
who has rebuilt the Communist party on his vision of a Russian
socialist great power. Today he leads the Communist faction in the
Duma and is chairman of the united opposition movement -- the
National Patriotic Union.
This volume is a compilation of Zyuganov's writings on Russia's
past and present and her place in the world; Russia's fate under
the leadership of Gorbachev and Yeltsin; his own vision of Russia's
future under a new Communist leadership; and his reflections on the
1996 presidential election.
