Recenzje

"Bjorkman/Kurbatov book is that of the importance of path-dependence - going back yet from pre-Soviet times. Local views of perestroika are highly specific and enduring, something that will be of great significance for current and future politics. The well presented study of state-enhanced identity creation and socialization has done a fine service in pointing out the endurance of national perceptions and identities to specialists and readers interested in the region."- Dennis Soltys Professor at the Department of Public Administration and International Development, KIMEP University
