威廉•奥多姆,美军中将,曾任美国国家安全局局长,于1988年退休,2008年因心脏病在美国去世。布热津斯基认为作者是美国的首席苏联军事问题专家。
In this text, a United States Army officer and scholar traces the rise and fall of the Soviet military, arguing that it had a far greater impact on Soviet politics and economic development than was perceived in the West. The author asserts that Gorbachev saw that shrinking the military and the military-industrial sector of the economy was essential for fully implementing perestroika and that his efforts to do this led to the dissolution of the Soviet Union. Odom enhances his account with interviews with key factors in the Soviet Union before, during and after the collapse. He describes the condition of the Soviet military during the mid-1980s and explains how it became what it was - its organizational structures, manpower policies, and military-industrial arrangements. He then moves to the events that led to its destruction, taking us to the most secret circles of Soviet policy making, as well as describing the public debates, factional struggles in the new parliament, and street combat as army units tried to repress the political forces unleashed by glasnost. Odom shows that just as the military was the ultimate source for the multinational Soviet state, the communist ideology justified the military's priority claim on the economy. When Gorbachev tried to shift resources from the military to the civilian sector to overcome economic stagnation, he had to revise the official ideology in order to justify removing the military from its central place. Paralyzed by corruption, mistrust and public disillusionment, the military was unable and unwilling to intervene against either Gorbachev's perestroika or Yeltsin's dissolution of the Soviet Union.
1、书的装帧和印刷不错,字体和开本也合适,希望以后能出版精装本,以飨读者; 2、书是由前美国国安局局长撰写,作为冷战时期著名的军事专家,他对苏联军队的发展的理解本身就很有趣,意识形态的不同多少肯定会让他的叙述难以做到绝对客观,粗略翻阅一下,这方面的顾虑打消不...
评分本书追溯了苏联军队的兴衰,详细地论述了苏联军队的建立与发展以及戈尔巴乔夫时期苏联军队的改革与成败,对这支军队崩溃的原因、过程和结果作出了实质性的分析,作者以鲜活实例、亲身访谈、独特视角、另类解读贯穿全书。
