Opis

This volume contains a selection of 75 outstanding Soviet documents relating to the struggle for Jewish emigration in the years 1957-89. These documents qualitatively broaden the base of source material for the topic. They reveal those aspects of the problem which most preoccupied the leadership and the factors which had the greatest impact on the decision-making process. Finally, they provide fresh insight into the nature of the information which was received by the Kremlin and the mechanism by which it was procured.
