Summary:"This is an invaluable guide to the earlier decades of communist rule in Eastern Europe. The underlying theme throughout is the communists' attempt to mould the region's varied economic, social, intellectual and cultural characteristics according to the model of the Soviet Union. Their success at this endeavour was mixed and, following the death of Stalin in 1953, the differences became more and more pronounced leading to both rebellion and Soviet invasion." "The book is sure to be welcomed by students in departments of History and Politics as well as anyone trying to understand the history of Eastern Europe and appreciate the special conditions the people of the region face."--BOOK JACKET.
