Looking for Perestroika
- 1990 ----- color ----- 58 min ----- vhs
- (Inside Gorbachev's USSR series, Part 3) Explores the promises and pitfalls of perestroika, where plans for economic reform are paralyzed by fear of taking risks or losing power. Visits a coal mine, a state farm, a private enterprise and the economic ministry in the Kremlin. The testimonies of workers, state managers, entrepreneurs and economists provide an eye-opening answer to the question of whether or not perestroika is working. One can see the effects of restructuring on the standard of living in Russia and appreciate perestroika's complexity and its effects on Gorbachev's tenure as president.
- Topics: (Economics, Political Science: Russian, East European and Central Asian, Russian, East European and Central Asian Studies, Soviet Union)
