Drawing on his experience as a Moscow correspondent for Le Monde, Michel Tatu presents a meticulously researched account of how Nikita Khrushchev's authority eroded and ultimately collapsed, culminating in his ouster in October 1964. With the precision of an investigative journalist and the rigor of a political scientist, Tatu uncovers the factional maneuvering, ideological disputes, and personal rivalries that shaped Soviet policy during one of the most turbulent periods of the Cold War. The work argues that the transition to collective leadership under Brezhnev and Kosygin was not a smooth institutional handover but rather the product of years of calculated political attrition. Authoritative, densely detailed, and compellingly written, it remains an essential text for anyone seeking to understand the opaque machinery of Soviet power.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48887888707803,"sku":"2026200007153-SECONDHAND","price":20.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/9b3669b1-c165-4128-a766-43429d208b67.png?v=1781747911","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200007153-secondhand-power-in-the-kremlin-from-khrushchevs-decline-to-collective-leadership","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
