As Moscow Sees Us American Politics and Society in the Soviet Mindset

As perestroika has dramatically altered the political climate in the Soviet Union, so too has Mikhail Gorbachev's agenda of reform modified America's disposition towards its superpower rival. Yet how do the Soviet people and policy-makers perceive the United States and its political and socio-economic structure? How do American politics and society appear when scrutinized by Marxist-Leninist theory? How do Soviet ideologues and intellectuals struggle to place Americansuccesses within a rigid ideological framework?In this work, Richard Mills examines the ways in which Soviet analysts interpret American domestic and foreign politics and the complex factors that shape continuities and changes in the Soviet framework.Mills, Richard M. is the author of 'As Moscow Sees Us American Politics and Society in the Soviet Mindset' with ISBN 9780195062601 and ISBN 0195062604.
