Title: The Strange Death of Soviet Communism
Description: "What took place in the Soviet Union between 1917 and 1991, in the eyes of its proponents, constituted a "great experiment" in the application of new modes of organization to social life, the largest such experiment in history. This book brings together leading scholars of Soviet history to show why the experiment failed and how it has destroyed the laboratory of Socialist utopias. It will be of interest to historians, political scientists, Slavic studies specialists and sociologists."--BOOK JACKET.
