Clinton and Yeltsin
When leaders in the Kremlin have surprised the world, it has almost always been bad news. The notable exception came in the final fifteen years of the twentieth century. The last leader of the USSR, Mikhail Gorbachev, and his protégé-turned-rival-and-successor, Boris Yeltsin, the first president of the Russian Federation, set about to democratize society. They wanted to permit freedom of speech and the press, eradicate repression, and cooperate w…

Globalization and Diplomacy
Democracy and the National Interest
Nearly five years ago, early in his first campaign for the White House, Bill Clinton delivered a speech at Georgetown University about democracy as a factor in international life. Countries whose cit izens choose their leaders, he said, are more likely than those with other forms of government to be reliable partners in trade and diplo macy, and less likely to threaten the peace. As president, he has put that principle into practice by making the…
