This authoritative anthology chronicles four decades of Soviet history through the pages of one of the world's most respected journals of international affairs, Foreign Affairs. Edited by Philip E. Mosely, The Soviet Union 1922–1962 presents a carefully curated selection of essays and analysis from distinguished scholars, diplomats, and statesmen — including George F. Kennan, Leon Trotsky, Nikita S. Khrushchev, and Zbigniew Brzezinski — whose writings shaped Western understanding of the USSR. The collection covers the full arc of Soviet development, from the Bolshevik consolidation of power through the turbulent Stalin era and into the Cold War tensions of the early 1960s, offering an unmatched breadth of perspective. With a foreword by Hamilton Fish Armstrong, long-serving editor of Foreign Affairs, the volume situates each contribution within its historical moment, making it an essential resource for scholars and general readers alike interested in the ideological and geopolitical confrontation that defined the twentieth century.
