Crisis Amid Plenty: The Politics of Soviet Energy Under Brezhnev and Gorbachev (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9780691636696)

Although the Soviet Union has the most abundant energy reserves of any country, energy policy has been the single most disruptive factor in its industry since the mid-1970s. This major case study treats the paradox of the energy crisis as an essential part of larger economic problems of the Soviet Union and as a key issue in determining the fate of the Gorbachev reforms.
