Though not overtly revolutionary, this era produced significant shifts in policies, ideas, language, artistic practices, daily behaviours, and material life. It was also during this time that social, cultural, and intellectual processes in the USSR began to parallel those in the West (and particularly in Europe) as never before.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis volume examines in fascinating detail the various facets of Soviet life during the 1950s and 1960s, a period termed the 'Thaw.' Featuring innovative research by historical, literary, and film scholars from across the world, this book helps to answer fundamental questions about the nature and ultimate fortune of the Soviet order - both in its internal dynamics and in its long-term and global perspectives.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Denis Kozlov, Eleonory Gilburd\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1442628642\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781442628649\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Toronto Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/25\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 524\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.70lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.13w x 1.22d","brand":"Denis Kozlov","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44076258787583,"sku":"9781442628649","price":53.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_0ac58849-ca4d-4cd5-9356-d27a74b301ab.jpg?v=1685464012","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-thaw-denis-kozlov-9781442628649","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
