Summary/Abstract |
The present unipolar world order imposes on almost all countries a 'liberal' imperialistic model of development, inspired by the American system. Yet, the effects of 'market fundamentalism' have been traumatic, and often disastrous for national societies, from Russia to Latin America and the predominant economies, including the US, are also suffering from them. A popular revolt against the supremacy of globalised capital is taking place and Felix N Yurlov points out that it is a manifestation of the everlasting quest for greater social justice and equity.

Summary/Abstract |
As General Secretary, Gorbachev evolved from a Communist reformer to a socialist of the social democratic type. The most important programmatic documents of the CPSU in 1990-1991, on which Gorbachev had the predominant influence, were essentially social democratic. (Many in the Party apparatus had no intention of implementing them.) From 1988, Gorbachev was advocating fundamental change of the Soviet system, although there were zig-zags in his public pronouncements under the pressure of events. Ill-understood both at home and abroad, Gorbachev's social democratic ideas were 'outflanked' by the market fundamentalism and political impatience of his radical opponents and frustrated by the implacable enmity of conservative defenders of the vanishing Communist party-state.

This is being done not only by researchers and experts, but also at high-level social and political forums.
