This captivating volume brings together case studies drawn from four post-Soviet statesRussia, Ukraine, Belarus, and Moldova. The collected papers illustrate how the events that started in 1985 and brought down the USSR six years later led to the rise of fifteen successor states, with their own historicized collective memories. The volumes analyses juxtapose history textbooks for secondary schools and universities, and how they aim to create understandings as well as identities that are politically usable, within their different contexts. From this emerges a picture of multiple perestroika(s) and diverging development paths. Only in Ukrainea country that recently experienced two popular uprisings, the Orange Revolution and the Revolution of Dignitythe people themselves are ascribed agency and the power to change their country. In the other three states, elites are, instead, presented as prime movers of society, as is historical determinism. The volumes contributors are Diana Bencheci, Andrei Dudchik, Liliya Erushkina, Marharyta Fabrykant, Alexandr Gorylev, Andrey Kashin, Alla Marchenko, Valerii Mosneagu, Alexey Rusakov, Natalia Tregubova, and Yuliya Yurchuk.

This is a fascinating study of how textbooks from various post-Soviet contexts portray and interpret Perestroika--the foundational event for contemporary Russia, Ukraine, Belarus, and Moldova. The authors skillfully address the panoply issues, central for understanding today's regimes in these countries as well as differences among them. The book homes in on the problems of social change and continuity, legitimacy and resistance, people's agency and conformism.--Michail Suslov, Assistant Professor of Cross-Cultural and Regional Studies, University of Copenhagen
