威廉•奧多姆,美軍中將,曾任美國國傢安全局局長,於1988年退休,2008年因心髒病在美國去世。布熱津斯基認為作者是美國的首席蘇聯軍事問題專傢。
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.
原标题:拜占庭的黄昏 威廉·奥多姆的《苏联军队的瓦解》是一部“技术流”作品,很少有人敢于挑战作者的专业素养。如果实证主义的极致足以让理论从框架当中自然流露,本书就属于这种难能可贵的成就。布罗代尔大师在其巅峰时代,并不是总能做到这一点。苏联军队的瓦解...
評分苏军曾是怎样的一支军队?它是由什么样的战争观与军事理论武装起来的?戈尔巴乔夫改革时期苏军的战略、性质、机制和组织形式发生了哪些变化?这些变化又是如何潜移默化地消蚀了苏军的凝聚力与战斗力?这是我们感兴趣的所在。
評分 評分1985年3月,戈尔巴乔夫正式出任苏联共产党总书记,当他提出推进军队改革时,并未遭遇多少反对声音,甚至被几乎所有人寄予厚望,然而,仅仅6年多后,到1991年12月25日,苏军不仅没完成改革目标,反而被彻底瓦解。 对这段历史,不同作者有不同解读,前美国国家安全局局长...
評分本书作者在苏联解体当年以及之前和之后,曾对苏联许多关键人物进行过专访,因此他在分析苏联军队“为什么”以及“如何”瓦解的过程和原因时,始终能将这一问题放在苏联政治改革、经济消长的大背景下加以论证,并一针见血地指出,正是戈尔巴乔夫上台后鼓吹的“改革新思维”、“...
