Description

First published in 1982 and reissued as part of Routledge's Revivals series, this analytical study examines how Khrushchev and Brezhnev consolidated power through policy manipulation and strategic image-building in Soviet politics. The book challenges conventional interpretations by presenting a nuanced view of both leaders: rejecting the simplistic portrayal of Khrushchev as a consumer-focused decentraliser and Brezhnev as merely conservative and uninspired. It provides an in-depth exploration of central Soviet domestic issues including investment priorities, incentive systems, administrative reform, and political participation structures. This scholarly work is essential for readers seeking to understand the complexities of post-Stalin Soviet leadership, the mechanisms of authority consolidation, and the ideological tensions that shaped Soviet policy during these pivotal decades.

Key Features

Routledge Revivals edition brings this 1982 classic back into print for contemporary readers of Soviet history and political leadership studies.

In-depth analysis of how Khrushchev and Brezhnev each navigated the challenges of building and maintaining authority within the post-Stalin elite structure.

Examines practical policy domains including investment priorities, incentive policy, and administrative reform to illustrate leadership approaches and their outcomes.

Challenges conventional historical narratives by presenting revised interpretations of both leaders' legacies and their strategic political decision-making.
