Abstract

The article analyzes the features of the era of L. I. Brezhnev and its perceptions. The author presents his views on the political portrait of the Soviet leader. The article considers distinctive characteristics and stereotypical features of the image of the long-term leader of the Soviet state formed in the national and foreign historiography. The article indicates the key events and phenomena related to the foreign and domestic policy of the USSR under Brezhnev and describes the specific aspects of his managerial style. The author focuses on the details of the conspiracy to remove N. S. Khrushchev from power, and specifically point out that it was L. I. Brezhnev who headed this conspiracy, and not M. A. Suslov and A. N. Shelepin, as it is indicated in some research papers on the problem. The article also specifically examines the achievements of the foreign policy of the era of “détente”, the role of L. I. Brezhnev in the successes of the policy of those years, the model of his behavior in relations with foreign leaders, such as R. Nixon, J. Ford, V. Brandt, and others. The research is based on the testimonies of people who worked closely with L. I. Brezhnev and those who were in his inner circle. According to the author, L. I. Brezhnev was ready to retire at the end of the 1970s, but members of the Politburo insisted that he should keep his post. Brezhnev did not manage to survive as a politician; his death remained practically unnoticed by the Soviet people.
勃列日涅夫的政治肖像
本文分析了勃列日涅夫时代的特点及其认识。作者对这位苏联领导人的政治形象提出了自己的看法。本文考察了在国内外史学中形成的苏联国家长期领导人形象的鲜明特征和模式化特征。文章指出了勃列日涅夫领导下苏联内外政策的关键事件和现象,并对其管理风格的具体方面进行了描述。作者着重于将赫鲁晓夫赶下台的阴谋的细节,并特别指出是L. I.勃列日涅夫领导了这个阴谋,而不是M. A.苏斯洛夫和A. N.谢列平,正如一些关于这个问题的研究论文所指出的那样。本文还专门研究了“dasten”时代外交政策的成就,勃列日涅夫在那些年政策成功中的作用,以及他在与外国领导人(如尼克松、福特、勃兰特等)关系中的行为模式。这项研究是基于与l·i·勃列日涅夫(L. I. Brezhnev)密切合作过的人和他的核心圈子里的人的证词。根据作者的说法,l·i·勃列日涅夫准备在20世纪70年代末退休,但政治局成员坚持认为他应该留任。勃列日涅夫没能以政治家的身份生存下去;他的死几乎没有引起苏联人民的注意。
