World Order after Leninism examines the origins and evolution of
world communism and explores how its legacies have shaped the
post-Cold War world order. The lessons of Leninism continue to
exert a strong influence in contemporary foreign affairs--most
visibly in Poland and other post-communist states of the former
Soviet Union, but also in China and other newly industrialized
states balancing authoritarian impulses against the pressures of
globalization, free markets, and democratic possibilities. World
Order after Leninism began as a conversation among former students
of Ken Jowitt, professor of political science at the University of
California at Berkeley from 1970-2002 and whose monumental career
transformed the fields of political science, Russian studies, and
post-communist studies. Using divergent case studies, the essays in
this volume document the ways in which Jowitt's exceptionally
original work on Leninism's evolution and consolidation remains
highly relevant in analyzing contemporary post-communist and
post-authoritarian political transformations.
