具体描述

In this text, a United States Army officer and scholar traces the rise and fall of the Soviet military, arguing that it had a far greater impact on Soviet politics and economic development than was perceived in the West. The author asserts that Gorbachev saw that shrinking the military and the military-industrial sector of the economy was essential for fully implementing perestroika and that his efforts to do this led to the dissolution of the Soviet Union. Odom enhances his account with interviews with key factors in the Soviet Union before, during and after the collapse. He describes the condition of the Soviet military during the mid-1980s and explains how it became what it was - its organizational structures, manpower policies, and military-industrial arrangements. He then moves to the events that led to its destruction, taking us to the most secret circles of Soviet policy making, as well as describing the public debates, factional struggles in the new parliament, and street combat as army units tried to repress the political forces unleashed by glasnost. Odom shows that just as the military was the ultimate source for the multinational Soviet state, the communist ideology justified the military's priority claim on the economy. When Gorbachev tried to shift resources from the military to the civilian sector to overcome economic stagnation, he had to revise the official ideology in order to justify removing the military from its central place. Paralyzed by corruption, mistrust and public disillusionment, the military was unable and unwilling to intervene against either Gorbachev's perestroika or Yeltsin's dissolution of the Soviet Union.

作者曾任驻苏外交官,美国国家安全局局长,是有着丰富实践经验的学者,他所看到的现象自然不是一般书宅型研究者可以比拟的。作者对苏联军队在戈尔巴乔夫时代经历改革而后崩溃的全过程做了全景式的回顾,读罢令人掩卷深思。 作者对苏军的方方面面的描述都很到位,从战略指导思想...

苏军具有国家军队与政党军队的双重身份。当国家经济衰败时,臃肿的苏军失去了相匹配的财力支撑;而当苏共自身的组织奔溃时,苏军则失去了意识形态的基础与对内暴力行动的正当性;苏军的溃败,归根结底是苏共政治上的溃败,包括作者所谓戈尔巴乔夫的领导力的溃败。而苏共的崩溃...

1、书的装帧和印刷不错,字体和开本也合适,希望以后能出版精装本,以飨读者; 2、书是由前美国国安局局长撰写,作为冷战时期著名的军事专家,他对苏联军队的发展的理解本身就很有趣,意识形态的不同多少肯定会让他的叙述难以做到绝对客观,粗略翻阅一下,这方面的顾虑打消不...

1985年3月,戈尔巴乔夫正式出任苏联共产党总书记,当他提出推进军队改革时,并未遭遇多少反对声音,甚至被几乎所有人寄予厚望,然而,仅仅6年多后,到1991年12月25日,苏军不仅没完成改革目标,反而被彻底瓦解。   对这段历史,不同作者有不同解读,前美国国家安全局局长...
