About the book: 2020 / The Soviet Union was a powerful superpower, successfully resisted not only the United States, but the entire Western coalition. He created his own world system, dynamically developed the economy, and achieved tremendous achievements in the field of science and technology. In terms of the level of benefits available to the population, it was in some ways inferior to capitalist countries, but in many ways superior to them. How did it happen that it collapsed? This book tells about the hidden processes in the Soviet leadership, subversive influences and betrayal - which built nests at the very top of the Communist Party, contributing to the destruction of the USSR, and then fully manifesting itself in the post-Soviet space.
