Anatoliy Golitsyn's first book, New Lies for Old, caused a long running sensation when it was discovered that, unlike most Western analysts, the Author had accurately predicted, some years ahead of the events, the Break with the past, which took place in Eastern Europe and the Soviet Union in 1989-91.

Written to Prevent the Times We Live In

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on January 8, 2020

Verified Purchase

This book is a classic of the Cold War. Written by a Russian defector who had first-hand knowledge of the plans of the USSR and predicted the Perestroika years before Gorbachev came on the scene and implemented the plan. Very well written, incredible detail and insightful as to what happened, why it happened and insights on what Trump is dealing with today. Great Book!

Perestroika Deception

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on March 7, 2009

A must read to understand a different view of Perestroika from former KGB master spy to The West. Anatoliy Golitsyn advise and warnings should not be ignored . The former Communist elite are still the ones in charge of former Communist countries .They are also the ones in charge of Russian mafia that has infested USA and Europe. How much has really changed?

This guy is becoming more correct than ever.

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on November 4, 2021

The Perestroika Deception is the last book of Anatoliy Golitsyn, the ex-KGB agent. He accurately predicted 94% of the events within his book New lies for old in 1984. His predictions all came true by 1995. His last book resonates with today's environment as we witness the hybridization of Russia and China into the ultimate Marxist-Leninist entity that wrestles against the West for coming decades.

After the release of Perestroika Deception, Anatoliy was still correct that the new leader of Russia will come from a heavily communist background aka Vladimir Putin from the KGB since this institution is the bastion of hardcore MLs. The book is also correct that state capitalism dominates the whole world as neoliberal capitalism is near its death bed. If you notice closely, every non-Western country in the world practices a form of capitalism that is heavily controlled by the state. This is the major theme of this interview, and today proved it correct.

The interview also predicts the major importance of China at aiding the worldwide Marxism-Leninism. The interview reveals that Soviets were inspired by Art of Wars by Sun Tzu, while Chinese Communist Party inspired the KGB to control the global shadow economy through drugs trade and crimes since the Chinese communists were proficient at drugs trafficking. The interview mentions that China will be the one doing heavy hittings against the West to distract everyone from the Soviet/socialist infiltration everywhere. After the fall of USSR, ex-Soviets continue their control over the global shadow economy through the collaboration with the 5 remaining communist states (China, Vietnam, Laos, Cuba, North Korea). The interview emphasizes that Cuba is still the Soviet HQ of crimes in North America that regulates the drugs trade from Latin America into the US.

Based on everything that happens with China-Russia vs the West today, the book has become more real than ever. The global Marxist-Leninists are winning!!

The Russian Bear & Politics

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on February 13, 2007

After reading a few reviews, all who voted in favor of Golitsyn, I thought I would add a little information to clarify.

There is much ado about Golitsyn's "predictions" everywhere, on the web, in print and in media. This leads one to believe that there is chance involved in a sort of political prognostication; however, this is not the case, and he clearly states this, time and time again, in both "New Lies for Old" and "The Perestroika Deception."

Golitsyn's analysis of Russian activity is based upon a new analytical paradigm. This paradigm grew as a result to changes in policy which were designed to give false results to Western analysts stuck in the now outdated dogma.

Glasnost and perestroika were designed, according to Golitsyn, as politic tools to perform a sort of prestidigitation to lull and bedazzle Soviet opponents, while the true intentions and actions happened in the background.

History has proven Golitsyn's analysis to be extremely accurate. However, there seems to be a concerted effort to completely ignore his strategic analytical model, much like it happened in the 1980's and 1990's. This, to me, indicates that his model for interpreting data is reliable and bears consideration. It is through this model that he made "predictions," all which have either come to pass or will in the future (if his prediction rate is anything by which to judge the rest). For those that would like to understand seemingly esoteric or difficult to understand political moves, Golitsyn's work might help to shed light on the subject.

Communism is NOT dead

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on August 19, 2004

Anatoliy Golitsyn worked inside the system, inside the KGB.

He predicted what later has become reality - Russia clearly staged the collapse of communism in Eastern Europe, the KGB financed all so called dissidents that run the Eastern European governments, Golitsyn has analized the strategic communist plan in detail and yet our government is not listening and our so called media is not paying attention to this threat from Russia and China.

Communist World Domination will become horrible reality if we will not reasses Russia's military strength and the real intentions KGB lieutenant colonel Vladimir Putin and his communist Politburo have for America - destruction of her and instalation of the communist World Order around the Globe.

Golitsyn clearly states in this briliant analysis that the deceptive means of false friendship Russia is playing today

will only result in catastrofic consequences for America if America doesn't protect herself.

The means of communist infiltration and systematic subversion

of the West are clearly shown in detail by Mr. Golitsyn

and that's why he's still under direct death threat from Moscow

and he has to hide in the U.K.

Russia's connection to Islamic terrorism has been also proven

and Golitsyn mentioned Saddam's regime constant co-operation with Moscow.

Will America wake up ?

Only God knows that.

Golitsyn ... Long term Russian strategy explained 20 years before Perestroika happened. WELL worth reading !

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on November 19, 2016

Verified Purchase

An extraordinary book which challenges the assumptions of our generation. I am reminded of the saying " Never ASSume ; it only makes an Ass out of U and of ME " ... We assumed that the 1989 + 1990-1 "collapse of the USSR" and the concomitant dismemberment of the Warsaw Pact was the result of the superiority of capitalism + social conscience. How wrong we were ! Lenin planned this out over a century ago ( and how many of us have read Lenin and Sun Tsu's The Art of War ? ) ... And as we look around we see the pieces of the puzzle coming together. Once we've read this excellent analysis ; made over a DECADE before it happened by a GENUINE defector ) If you want to believe that Russia is not the USSR ; don't read this book ! If you want to believe in the benevolent Russians and their adoption of democracy ; don't read this book ! If you want to know the background, if you want to know how the West is being manipulated ... Your really SHOULD read this book ! It may well change the way you see things from now on. If you're uncertain ... Ask yourself ... Before 1989, WHO ran the USSR ? The KGB ( now trenamed the FSB & the mafiya ) , the GRU ( military Intelligence, of which Putin was a General ) and the Politburo. Ask yourself next ... Who runs Russia NOW ? THE FSB, the GRU and the Council / politburo ... So SOME of the names of the organisations and the people themselves have changed but the SYSTEM hasn't. If more of us in the West understood what Golitsyn has to tell us ... We would be better prepared for the fulfilment of Lenin's Long Term Plan. At least Golitsyn will tell you what that is !
