Distinguished historian of the Soviet period Robert V. Daniels
offers a penetrating survey of the evolution of the Soviet system
and its ideology. In a tightly woven series of analyses written
during his career-long inquiry into the Soviet Union, Daniels
explores the Soviet experience from Karl Marx to Boris Yeltsin and
shows how key ideological notions were altered as Soviet history
unfolded.
The book exposes a long history of American misunderstanding of the
Soviet Union, leading up to the "grand surprise" of its collapse in
1991. Daniels's perspective is always original, and his
assessments, some worked out years ago, are strikingly prescient in
the light of post-1991 archival revelations. Soviet Communism
evolved and decayed over the decades, Daniels argues, through a
prolonged revolutionary process, combined with the challenges of
modernization and the personal struggles between ideologues and
power-grabbers.
