About the book

Exploring Soviet and Russian history, politics, and foreign policy, The Uses of History brigns together the classic essays of renowned scholar Alexander Dallin. The author provides insightful analysis and nuanced interpretations of such key- and controversial- issues as the domestic sources of Soviet foreign policy, Stalin's leadership in World War II, Russian-American relations in the Reagan era, the causes of the collapse of the USSR, and the disappointments of Russia's post-Soviet evolution. Dallin rejects single-factor explanations for Soviet and Russian domestic and foreign policies, instead examining the complex interplay of internal and external conditions, institituions, mindsets, and the role of individual leaders.- P.4 of cover.
