| Description: | Gennady Andreevich Zyuganov is the leader of Russia's resurgent Communist Party and was Boris Yeltsin's strongest challenger in the summer 1996 presidential elections. This text provides a compilation of Zyuganov's writings on Russia's past and present and her place in the world. Gennady Andreevich Zyuganov is the leader of Russia''s resurgent Communist Party and was Boris Yeltsin''s strongest challenger in the summer 1996 presidential elections. Although his face became familiar to the world at that time, his ideas and his programme were mainly a subject of speculation. A former village teacher from Orel Province, Zyuganov came to Moscow in the 1980s to work in the ideology department of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union and to complete doctoral work in philosophy at Moscow State University. He is a prolific writer who has rebuilt the Communist Party on his vision of a Russian socialist great power. Today he leads the Communist faction in the Duma and is chairman of the united opposition movement - the National Patriotic Union. This volume is a compilation of Zyuganov''s writings on Russia''s past and present and her place in the world; Russia''s fate under the new leadership of Gorbachev and Yeltsin; his own vision of Russia''s future under a new Communist leadership; and his reflections on the 1996 presidential election of the Communist Party of the Russian Federation. |
