Description and Table of Contents

Description

Shows how the rise of nationalism in the former Soviet republics stripped the Communist Party of legitimacy and led inevitably to the revolution of 1991. D'Encausse does not view nationalism as a sinister phenomenon, arguing instead that it is the only means for Soviet society to renew itself.
