 Cold War - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
The period between the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan in December 1979 and the rise of Mikhail Gorbachev as leader of the Soviet Union in March 1985 was characterized by a marked "freeze" in relations between the superpowers after the "thaw" of the Détente period of the 1970s.
This period began at the rise of Mikhail Gorbachev as Soviet Union leader in 1985 and continued until the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991.
Western historians often argue that one major cause of death of the Soviet Union was the massive fiscal spending on military technology that the Soviets saw as necessary in response to NATO's increased armament of the 1980s.

 Space Race - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
The Soviets built a landing craft and selected cosmonauts for the mission that would have placed Aleksei Leonov on the Moon's surface, but with the successive launch failures of the N1 booster in 1969, plans for a manned landing suffered first delay and then cancellation.
Even at this point of cooperation the Soviet leadership was alarmed at the prospect of USAF involvement with the Space Shuttle program and began the competing Buran and Energia projects.
Some observers have argued that the high economic cost of the space race, along with the extremely expensive arms race, eventually deepened the economic crisis of the Soviet system during the late 1970's and 80's and was one of the factors that led to the collapse of the Soviet Union.

 Communist Party of the Soviet Union - Article from FactBug.org - the fast Wikipedia mirror site
For most of the history of Soviet Russia and the Soviet Union, the Communist Party was virtually indistinguishable from the government and was the only political party tolerated by the government and its security forces.
With some exceptions, the course of the CPSU (and the history of the whole Soviet Union) was largely determined by its leader.
After the collapse of the Soviet Union, Russian adherents to the CPSU tradition, particularly as it existed before Gorbachev, reorganised themselves as the Communist Party of the Russian Federation.

(Dissident existing soviets were won over or suppressed; Bolshevik soviets were organized in factories that lacked soviets.) The view was widely promoted and expressed that Bolshevik power rested on the collective will of these soviets, representing the fulfillment of the slogan.
In essentially the preceding sense, the term was used outside the Soviet Union by some Marxist-Leninist movements, for example, the Chinese Communist Party's efforts in the "Kiang-Si(?) Soviet" immediately prior to the Long March.
Based on and in support of view of the state implicit in sense 2 above, the term soviet naturally extended, or consciously was extended, to mean in effect any body formed by a group of soviets to delegate, up a hierarchy of soviets, the authority to express and effect their will.
