This book was first published in 2010, and today Alexander Khinshtein offers a reprint, corrected and supplemented. According to the author, to compare the Brezhnev’s “era of stagnation” and the Putin’s “era of stability” are the destiny of the opposition. Meanwhile, in these two eras, he finds a common mass. He claims that the era of stagnation is just a cliche launched by special propagandists, that the joint of the 1960-1970s was a truly golden era of the Soviet Union, and Leonid Brezhnev had every chance to stay in history as one of the most revered rulers: a wise, caring And strong. No wonder all his modern ratings go off scale. Alexander Khinshtein was the first in the country to raise his voice in defense of the legendary Secretary General, deciding to show his genuine image, cleared of propaganda husk. In his historical investigation, he is trying to answer questions that have recently been increasingly sounding in society. The author believes that this time was the best in Soviet history, that stagnation is the flip side of stability and that everything new is well forgotten old.
