Thu, 26 March 2009 Thursday, March 26, 2009. Twenty years ago today, citizens of the Soviet Union went to the polls in the first multi-party elections in that nation in over seventy years. I take a look at that election, some of its results, and ponder the changes in the world, where for many of us, the Soviet Union has never even existed. I've also included a promo for the Forgotten Classics podcast, a show where you can find out more about famous books of an even older vintage than I might talk about here. Comments[0] |
