Opis książki:
This book describes a singular region, only vaguely recognized in Western public opinion. Even specialists may find parts of it suprising, as it cantains various interpretations of the weighty events that have resulted in the downfall of the Soviet empire. The vast quantity of scientific and non-fiction literature has attempted to describe these events, the most spectacular geopolitical catastrophe in modern history. Were this book to simply contain a description of what happened, it would not differ from hundreds of similar works. But here the authors reach deeper, as they try to identify both the overt and hidden processes that led to the breakthrough and gave it a very diffrent character within each of various countries of the region.
