Featuring extensive revisions to the text as well as a new introduction and epilogue-bringing the book completely up to date on the tumultuous politics of the previous decade and the long-term implications of the Soviet collapse-this compact, original, and engaging book offers the definitive account of one of the great historical events of the last fifty years. Combining historical and geopolitical analysis with an absorbing narrative, Kotkin draws upon extensive research, including memoirs by dozens of insiders and senior figures, to illuminate the factors that led to the demise of Communism and the USSR. The new edition puts the collapse in the context of the global economic and political changes from the 1970s to the present day. Kotkin creates a compelling profile of post Soviet Russia and he reminds us, with chilling immediacy, of what could not have been predicted-that the world's largest police state, with several million troops, a doomsday arsenal, and an appalling record of violence, would liquidate itself with barely a whimper. Throughout the book, Kotkin also paints vivid portraits of key personalities. Using recently released archive materials, for example, he offers a fascinating picture of Gorbachev, describing this virtuoso tactician and resolutely committed reformer as "flabbergasted by the fact that his socialist renewal was leading to the system's liquidation"-and more or less going along with it. At once authoritative and provocative, Armageddon Averted illuminates the collapse of the Soviet Union, revealing how "principled restraint and scheming self interest brought a deadly system to meek dissolution." Acclaim for the First Edition: "The clearest picture we have to date of the post-Soviet landscape." --The New Yorker "A triumph of the art of contemporary history. In fewer than 200 pagesKotkin elucidates the implosion of the Soviet empire-the most important and startling series of international events of the past fifty years-and clearly spells out why, thanks almost entirely to the 'principal restraint' of the Soviet leadership, that collapse didn't result in a cataclysmic war, as all experts had long forecasted." -The Atlantic Monthly "Concise and persuasive The mystery, for Kotkin, is not so much why the Soviet Union collapsed as why it did so with so little collateral damage." --The New York Review of Books
西伯利亚油田的发现给苏联续命了20年,却也在经济上使得苏联无法向市场转型;dissolved by its own ideals and elite,戈尔巴乔夫试图借用官僚体制来改造官僚体制,却在和平中消解了该体系赖以运转的权力结构
评分Why the tranquility and peacefulness of the transition was even possible? 有一股热情在涌动的文字,故事编排得很巧妙。当然还有无数的片段可以被补充进来刻画转型的方法面面。但最后新版本的增添的Epilogue完全无必要。
评分“竟无一人是男儿”学和“恩赐论”大型教材。苏东波和“人民起来争取目田”并没多大关系,绝大部分是上层“改革”造成unintended consequences,且丧失镇鸭意志的结果。我绝对相信我党充分研究并吸收了酥共王党王国的教训,所以……
评分回答一个问题,为什么竟无一人是男儿。这学期上SK的seminar受益匪浅,毕竟这是连RK和GJI都说很有兴趣的
