In most analyses of the Cold War's end the ideological aspects of Gorbachev's "new thinking" are treated largely as incidental to the broader considerations of power-as gloss on what was essentially a retreat forced by crisis and decline. Robert English makes a major contribution by demonstrating that Gorbachev's foreign policy was in fact the result of an intellectual revolution. English analyzes the rise of a liberal policy-academic elite and its impact on the Cold War's end. English worked in the archives of the USSR Foreign Ministry and also gained access to the restricted collections of leading foreign-policy institutes. He also conducted nearly 400 interviews with Soviet intellectuals and policy makers-from Khrushchev- and Brezhnev-era Politburo members to Perestroika-era notables such as Eduard Shevardnadze and Gorbachev himself. English traces the rise of a "Westernizing" worldview from the post-Stalin years, through a group of liberals in the late1960s-70s, to a circle of close advisers who spurred Gorbachev's most radical reforms. 606 $aIntellectuals$xPolitical activity$zSoviet Union 607 $aSoviet Union$xPolitics and government$y1953-1985$xPhilosophy 607 $aSoviet Union$xPolitics and government$y1985-1991$xPhilosophy 607 $aSoviet Union$xRelations$zUnited States 607 $aUnited States$xRelations$zSoviet Union 607 $aSoviet Union$xRelations$zEurope, Western 607 $aEurope, Western$xRelations$zSoviet Union 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aIntellectuals$xPolitical activity 676 $a303.48/24701821 700 $aEnglish$b Robert$g(Robert D.)$01037034 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910455059603321 996 $aRussia and the idea of the West$92457717 997 $aUNINA LEADER 02001oam 2200493I 450 001 9910165050603321 005 20240505202015.0 010 $a1-315-71306-3 024 7 $a10.4324/9781315713069 035 $a(CKB)3710000001060381 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC4809742 035 $a(WaSeSS)IndRDA00092273 035 $a(OCoLC)974668429 035 $a(EXLCZ)993710000001060381 100 $a20180706d2017 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurcnu|||||||| 181 $2rdacontent 182 $2rdamedia 183 $2rdacarrier 200 10$aTheatre planning $efacilities for performing arts and live entertainment /$fGene Leitermann 205 $a1st ed. 210 1$aNew York :$cRoutledge/Taylor & Francis Group,$d2017. 215 $a1 online resource (353 pages) 300 $a"A Focal Press Book"--Cover. 311 $a1-138-88900-8 311 $a1-317-49688-4 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references and index. 327 $apt.
