Popis:	Development of good citizens who willingly permit their thoughts and actions to be shaped by officially approved communist ethics has always been a vital function of Soviet schools. In Mikhail Gorbachev’s words, a good citizen is a “fighter for perestroika, ” a restructured society. After providing some historical background that is intended to give the reader a better idea of what is old and new in Soviet education today, the discussion moves to how Gorbachev’s concept of restructuring has shaped the efforts of the school to promote communist ethics, the human factor, and independent thinking. The author concludes that Soviet education will proceed, though at a deliberate pace, toward becoming more open, more humane, more diversified, more decentralized, and more democratized.
