Synopsis

To account for the revolutions across Eastern Europe in 1989, this study looks back to 1968 and provides an accessible analysis of events to the present day. It surveys the nature of communist power and the varying forms of opposition, charts the rise of Solidarity in Poland, and tells of the movements for change among dissident intellectuals across the region. The author demonstrates how Eastern Europe is freer today than at any other time in the 20th century.
