With all the fervor of a recent convert, Yakovlev repudiates the political ideology and party in which he was a stalwart for many years. Marxism, he says, demolished civil society and ruthlessly replaced it with immorality and state-supported atheism, exploited the traditional authoritarian consciousness of Russians, and so on. He also describes the pre-collapse reforms, in which he was a major player. No bibliography. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.
