When MIkhail S. Gorbachev became general secretary of the soviet union in March 1985, he launched his nation on a dramatic new course. His dual program of "perestroika" (restructuring") and "glasnost" (openness") introduced profound change in economic practice, internal affairs and international relations.

How did Gorbachev's ideas of perestroika and glasnost contribute to the loosening of the Soviet grasp on Eastern Europe, the collapse of communism, and the fall of the Berlin Wall?
