The Khrushchev era is increasingly seen as a period in its own
right, and not just as 'post-Stalinism' or a forerunner of
subsequent 'thaws' and 'reform from within'. This book provides a
comprehensive history of reform in the period, focusing especially
on social and cultural developments, about which a great deal of
information has become available since the opening of the former
Soviet archives, and which cast much light on how far official
policies correlated with popular views. Overall the book appraises
how far 'Destalinisation' went; and whether developments in the
period represented a real desire for reform, or rather an attempt
to fortify the Soviet system, but on different lines.
