An analysis of the proceedings of the 37th Congress of the
Communist Party of the Soviet Union. Setting the Congress in its
context, and focusing on the issues of political reform, economic
restructuring, the nationalities question and foreign policy, this
book explores the struggle for power between radicals, reformers
and conservatives in the USSR. It highlights the Party's changing
role in the Soviet political system and its changing relationship
with the military and the KGB. It examines the ongoing reappraisal
of the Soviet past, particularly the Stalin era, and its
significance for the rethinking of Soviet socialism, the
democratization of the society and the dismantling of the
command-administrative economy. The Congress, forecast by some as
heralding the demise of the CPSU as a ruling party, examines the
debates raging within the Party and the wider society concerning
the future of the USSR and the fate of perestroika.
