Abstract

In Collapse, Vladislav M. Zubok examines the fall of the Soviet Union, showing how the collapse was not sudden but rather the result of a long decline with economic strains at the centre. This is a compelling and detailed study that will prove to be the new standard work on a critical period in world history that still has ramifications today, writes William B. Whisenhunt. Collapse: The Fall of the Soviet Union. Vladislav M. Zubok. Yale University Press. 2021.
