Description

In this discussion of current political reforms in the Soviet Union, Zdenek Mlynar explains why it is not likely that a Western-type parliamentary system will evolve in the Soviet Union. The author analyzes past influences that affect present reform policy in the USSR and discusses the significance of Gorbachev's new political thinking for possible demilitarization and improvement in East-West relations.
