Fifteen eminent social scientists from North America and Eastern
Europe met under the auspices of Northwestern University's
Comparative Politics Program to discuss the significance and
characteristics of changes in political leadership in Eastern
Europe and the Soviet Union since World War II. The presentations
at the conference were edited and re-written following the
discussion. They are incorporated into this comprehensive analysis
of political leadership in European communist countries since World
War II.This volume is divided up into four parts and fourteen
different chapters. Part One examines the theoretical questions of
leadership in European socialist countries. Part Two provides a
factual perspective, including contemporary quantitative data and
biographical analysis. Part Three discusses the interaction of the
leadership and society. Jan Triska's concluding overview relates
specific chapters to the informal discussions at the
conference.Some of the notable contributions include 'Historical
Development of the Communist Theory of Leadership,' Alfred G.
Meyer; 'The Theory of Political Leadership and the Issue of
Totalitarianism,' Carl J. Friedrich; 'Marxist Theories of
Leadership and Bureaucracy,' Andras Hegedus; 'Trends in Top
Political Leadership in USSR,' Frederick C. Barghoorn;
'Representation of Career Types in Soviet Political Leadership,'
Frederic Fleron; 'The Soviet Appartchiki,' Michael P. Gehlen.
Leadership in East European Communism, 1945-1970 is essential
reading for students of comparative politics and the politics of
East European socialist countries and the Soviet Union.
