Changes

Under [[Nikita Khrushchev]], Russia moved away from a [[dictatorship]] to [[Democratic Socialism]]. Stalin's successor served as Communist Party leader until he was ousted by other [[progressive]]s in the [[Politburo]] over their dissatisfaction with his handling of foreign affairs  and domestic policy. Khrushchev was considered reckless and an embarrassment for provoking, then backing down, during the [[Cuban missile crisis]]. On the domestic front he allowed publication and distribution of [[Alexander Solzhenitsyn]]'s ''Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich'' without [[censorship]] of its [[Christian]] theme in a [[multicultural]] [[Leftwing]] [[totalitarian]] state.

Although considered "the next Hitler" by the [[CIA]] and American [[mainstream media]] in his day, Khrushchev is viewed today by both Russian and Western historians as a [[liberal]] reformer.
