Michail Sergejevič Gorbačev Libros

For more than a decade Mikhail Gorbachev has been engaged in working to protect the earth and its inhabitants via the organization he founded in 1992, Green Cross International. This work is by this statesman. It serves as a 'manifesto' that does not compromise its integrity to political, ideological or national sympathies.

The narrative explores Mikhail Gorbachev's transformative impact on the Soviet Union and the subsequent criticism he faced post-power, particularly from Boris Yeltsin, his successor. It delves into the complexities of leadership during a turbulent period, highlighting Gorbachev's legacy amidst the political upheaval that followed his departure from office.

In these memoirs Gorbachev reveals his feelings about the sad state of his country today. He tells us of his childhood in the North Caucasus during World War II, of coming to Moscow as a student and meeting Raisa Maksimovna, of his glittering career as a Party functionary - and his eventual role as one of the most powerful men in the world.

A serious crisis in the environment assumed the proportions of a global menace. This was pinpointed by the U.N. Commission's report, Our Common Future. The global challenge involved in this crisis was aggravated by the economic crisis of monetarism and debt. Gorbachev addressed the same themes in a powerful message to the U.N. The power of separate nation states was no longer sufficient to meet the world-wide threat.
