Cohen, Alexander Rabinowitch, and Robert Sharlet After Stalin's death in 1953, a period of reform was initiated in the Soviet Union, but conservative retrenchment has largely prevailed with the Brezhnev regime. The Soviet Union since Stalin presents interpretive essays by leading scholars who address the theme of continuity and change in Soviet politics, economics, society, culture, and foreign policy over the past twenty-five years. Among the topics covered are the tension between conservatism and reform, the performance of industry and agriculture, the mood of the Soviet "middle class," recent trends in litera-ture, the situation of the Soviet family, the Stalinist legacy in Soviet foreign policy, and the rise of a new nationalism among ethnic minorities. Written with both the specialist and the general reader in mind, this volume brings to bear solid new research on the post-Stalin era. Contributors George W. Breslauer John Bushnell Stephen F. Cohen Charles Gati George Gibian Erik P. Hoffmann Peter H. Juviler Roger E. Kanet Roy A. Medveder James R. Millar Alexander Rabinowitch John D. Robertson Alvin Z.
