by Sheila Fitzpatrick (Author)
Esta obra analiza la fascinante historia del auge y la decadencia de un imperio que, en el siglo xx, fue capaz de emerger de sus cenizas. Una nueva Rusia que nació casi por accidente y se disolvió de forma inesperada. Más de cien años después de la Revolución Rusa, la tumultuosa historia de la Unión Soviética sigue resultando fascinante e influyendo, además, en la política mundial. Fitzpatrick nos resume como nadie los más importantes hechos que modelaron esta nación. Una puerta de entrada a una historia arrolladora que, sin dejar de lado el rigor, está aderezada con inteligentes dosis de humor negro.
"Si fuera estalinista diría que quienes ignoren este libro merecen, si no ir al gulag, sí al menos uno o dos años de dura reeducación", Slavoj Zizek
"Esta obra es una oportunidad para acercarse a una historia de la Unión Soviética con más matices que la consabida versión que incide en la Guerra Fría, las colas del pan y los gulags", Kurt Johnson, The Saturday Age
"Sobradamente autorizada, esta Breve historia de la Unión Soviética resulta enormemente actual al apuntar las diversas formas posibles de su evolución", suplemento literario de The Times.
