Summary
"The years 1954-1959 were of no great importance in the seventy-year history of Soviet Azerbaijan. However, this brief period saw major developments in the life of the nation that left their imprint in the annals of history and hearts of citizens. Khruschev's Thaw and National Identity in Soviet Azerbaijan, 1954-1959 makes an attempt to answer these and other questions that mattered most, not only for the history of the USSR, but for the subsequent destinies of the Azerbaijani people as well"--Provided by publisher.
