Mikhail Gorbachev's relations with the West have captured the imagination ofcontemporaries and historians alike, but his vision of Soviet leadership inAsia has received far less attention. The failure of Gorbachev's Asianinitiatives has had dramatic consequences, by the late 1980s, the Soviet Unionwas in full retreat from Asia, and since the Soviet collapse, Russia has beenleft on the sidelines of the "Pacific century." In this exceptionallywide-ranging and deeply researched audiobook, Sergey Radchenko offers anilluminating account of the end of the Cold War in the East, tracing the deathof Soviet ambitions in Asia. Radchenko shows that Gorbachev began with biggestures, of which the most important was his initiative in Vladivostok in July1986, the opening salvo of the Soviet charm offensive in Asia Pacific. Theproblem, Radchenko points out, was that no one in Asia bought into Gorbachev'svision. If the Soviets had realized earlier that they needed Asia more thanAsia needed them, they might have played a much more important role there.Instead, China was largely misunderstood, early gains in India were squandered,Japan was ignored or condescended to, and the Korean scenario played out inways most unfavorable to Russia. Radchenko captures all of this in hiscompelling narrative, shedding important new light on many key players,including Gorbachev, Deng Xiaoping, Margaret Thatcher, Boris Yeltsin, andGeorge H. W. Bush, among others. Based on archival research in Russia, China,Mongolia, India, the United States, Britain, and numerous European countriesand on interviews with former policy makers in a dozen countries, UnwantedVisionaries presents a deftly narrated and penetrating portrait of the Sovietfailure in the East, with a wealth of valuable insight into Asia today.
