• March 9 -- Still
Missing the Soviet Union
Russia reporter Seth Mydans again notes how much is missed from the days of
Communism: "Job security and free vacations disappeared, along with
subsidized housing, education, medical care and social services."
• February 16 -- "Stalinist Ideals of…Social Equality"
Seth Mydans has another odd take on Russian history.
• February 9 -- Goodie
for Gorby
Seth Mydans' story on a Moscow subway bombing plugs a liberal hero:
"The glasnost--or openness--that Mikhail Gorbachev brought to the Soviet
Union does not run deep."
• February 5 -- Seth
Mydans in Stalinland
The last surviving resident of a central Russian village longs for the good
old days of the Soviet Union, writes Seth Mydans: "In his younger years,
Mr. Bykov was a soldier, a janitor and a plumber, and the world wasn't such a
bad place." Bykov grew up under Stalin.
