Bull, MJ

Abstract

This Review Article reviews a number of books which are a product of the collapse of communism in central and eastern Europe in 1989. The article evaluates the impact of the revolutions in central and eastern Europe not only on the regimes themselves but on western communism and the political left in western Europe more generally.
