This book examines changing Soviet and Russian press coverage of
the United States from the emergence of Mikhail Gorbachev through
the presidency of Vladimir Putin. A new afterword focuses on recent
developments in the Russian media and Russian press coverage of the
terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001. Becker argues that due to
the absence of a language to support the reform strategy, the
Soviet press presented positive images of its chief ideological and
military opponent, the United States, as a means of supporting
political, social and economic reform. He suggests that the end of
the Cold War and the emergence of a more self-confident Russia
means that the symbolic and discursive significance of the United
States for Russia has diminished.
