After he was out of power, I grew to appreciate the positive role that Gorbachev played in ending communist rule in Eastern Europe and the USSR, as well as allowing the Soviet empire to collapse RELATIVELY peacefully (compared to the collapse of other empires). 3/ — PolitiTweet.org

In 1990, I published these 2 pieces which predicted (& even hoped for a little) a revolution against Gorbachev: “1789, 1917 Can Guide '90s Soviets,” San Jose Mercury News, August 19, 1990. “The Beginning of the End for Gorbachev,” The Times (San Mateo, CA), July 27, 1990. 2/ — PolitiTweet.org

I wrote about this mixed, but ultimately positive legacy, in the first three chapters of Russia's Unfinished Revolution. https://t.co/C1a6UIoJiP 4/ — PolitiTweet.org
