Researchers continue to ponder and argue over how ‘revolutionary’, as opposed to ‘evolutionary’ (or ‘reformatory’) these changes were. In this new study, author Paweł Ukielski proposes the term ‘counterrevolution’ to describe the historical process that took place and uses it as an analytical construct to better understand the crisis of Soviet communism and the subsequent transitions that took place. Paweł Ukielski Ph. D. is a political scientist, historian and an Assistant Professor at the Institute of Political Studies, Polish Academy of Sciences. . 0aWorld politics. 0aPolitical science. 0aComparative government. 0aRussiaxHistory. 0aEurope, EasternxHistory. 0aSoviet UnionxHistory. 0aInternational relations.14aPolitical History.24aPolitical Science.24aComparative Politics.24aRussian, Soviet, and East European History.24aInternational Relations.2 aSpringerLink (Online service)0 tSpringer Nature eBook08iPrinted edition:z978303164127508iPrinted edition:z978303164129908iPrinted edition:z9783031641305 0aCentral and Eastern European Perspectives on International Relations,x2947-799940uhttps://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-031-64128-2
