Hardcover. Zustand: Very good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very good. First Edition, First Printing. 400 pages. DJ is slightly crumpled at the bottom near spine. Mikhail Gorbachev's foreign policy has captured the imagination of contemporaries and historians alike, but what exactly did he try to accomplish? In Unwanted Visions Sergey Radchenko rediscovers Gorbachev the strategist who set out to wage the Cold War, not to end it. Gorbachev sought to compensate for Soviet weaknesses in Europe through the exercise of leadership in Asia and to put an end to Moscow's international isolation by active engagement with China and India. Sergey S. Radchenko (born 1980) is a Soviet-born British-Russian historian. He is the Wilson E. Schmidt Distinguished Professor at the Henry A. Kissinger Center for Global Affairs, Johns Hopkins School of Advanced International Studies, and visiting professor at Cardiff University. He was previously Reader at Aberystwyth University, Lecturer at University of Nottingham Ningbo China, a Global Fellow and a Public Policy Fellow at the Woodrow Wilson Centre, and as the Zi Jiang Distinguished Professor at East China Normal University (Shanghai). Mikhail Sergeyevich Gorbachev (2 March 1931 30 August 2022) was a Soviet and Russian politician who served as the last leader of the Soviet Union from 1985 to the country's dissolution in 1991. He served as General Secretary of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union from 1985 and additionally as head of state beginning in 1988, as Chairman of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet from 1988 to 1989, Chairman of the Supreme Soviet from 1989 to 1990 and the president of the Soviet Union from 1990 to 1991. Mikhail Gorbachev's relations with the West have captured the imagination of contemporaries and historians alike, but his vision of Soviet leadership in Asia has received far less attention. The failure of Gorbachev's Asian initiatives has had dramatic consequences, by the late 1980s, the Soviet Union was in full retreat from Asia, and since the Soviet collapse, Russia has been left on the sidelines of the "Pacific century." In this exceptionally wide-ranging and deeply researched book, Sergey Radchenko offers an illuminating account of the end of the Cold War in the East, tracing the death of Soviet ambitions in Asia. Radchenko shows that Gorbachev began with big gestures, of which the most important was his initiative in Vladivostok in July 1986, the opening salvo of the Soviet charm offensive in Asia Pacific. The problem, Radchenko points out, was that no one in Asia bought into Gorbachev's vision. If the Soviets had realized earlier that they needed Asia more than Asia needed them, they might have played a much more important role there. Instead, China was largely misunderstood, early gains in India were squandered, Japan was ignored or condescended to, and the Korean scenario played out in ways most unfavorable to Russia. Radchenko captures all of this in his compelling narrative, shedding important new light on many key players, including Gorbachev, Deng Xiaoping, Margaret Thatcher, Boris Yeltsin, and George H. W. Bush, among others. Based on archival research in Russia, China, Mongolia, India, the United States, Britain, and numerous European countries and on interviews with former policy makers in a dozen countries, Unwanted Visionaries presents a deftly narrated and penetrating portrait of the Soviet failure in the East, with a wealth of valuable insight into Asia today.…
