What policies are its new leaders likely to follow? What are the principal strengths and weaknesses of the Soviet Union and how might they afect the uture conduct of Soviet leaders at home and abroad? A distinguished group of American specialists studies the Soviet system and Soviet society within a context of international politics, attempting to identify and explain the factors that are most likely to influence Soviet policy in the 1980s. The authors have drawn on the talents of thirty-five experts in seven disciplines to produce this essential volume. Policy makers, students, specialists, and the public will find here a coherent framework for understanding the future conduct of the Soviet Union. 606 $aHistory of other lands$2bicssc 607 $aSoviet Union$xIntellectual life$y1970-1991 607 $aSoviet Union$xMilitary policy 607 $aSoviet Union$xEconomic policy$y1981-1985 607 $aSoviet Union$xForeign relations$y1975- 610 $aHistory of specific lands 615 7$aHistory of other lands 676 $a327.47 700 $aByrnes$b Robert$4edt 701 $aByrnes$b Robert Francis$01214088 712 02$aGeorgetown University.$bCenter for Strategic and International Studies. 801 0$bMdBmJHUP 801 1$bMdBmJHUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910552756703321 996 $aAfter Brezhnev$92803837 997 $aUNINA
