- More about Ideology and Rationality in the Soviet Model: A legacy for Gorbachev
Ideology and Rationality in the Soviet Model explores the Soviet Union's development from the 1917 Bolshevik Revolution to Gorbachev's 'revolution from above, focusing on the structural determinants of the Soviet Model and questioning the likelihood of new policies defeating seven decades of Bolshevik rule and social indoctrination.
Format: Hardback
Length: 465 pages

Publisher: Taylor & Francis Ltd
First published in 1989, Ideology and Rationality in the Soviet Model assumes that since the October Revolution, the development of the Soviet Union has essentially been a process of trial and error. Economic rationality has been sacrificed to political expedients, and the cultural sphere has been put to use as a legitimating and rationalizing device. This book analyzes the internal logic of this process from the 1917 Bolshevik Revolution to Gorbachev's 'revolution from above, including coverage of the Stalin, Khrushchev, and Brezhnev eras. The book focuses on the structural determinants of the Soviet Model, thus seeking to reveal the specific rationalities that characterize 'Soviet man. Its conclusion casts serious doubt on the likelihood of new policies defeating seven decades of Bolshevik rule and social indoctrination. It will be of interest to students of economics, political science, and history.
