This article focuses on the book "Six Keys to the Soviet System," by Bertram D. Wolfe. His essays of the past fifteen years, collected in this volume, unlock many of the weaknesses of the Soviet system but give few clues to its sources of strength. Whether he is writing about the struggle for succession to party leadership, or suppression of freedom of scholarships or restrictions upon labor mobility, or the purges and the labor camps, or Soviet imperialism. Wolfe has a single message — the Soviet state is conducting war upon its own people, using as weapons mass propaganda, terror, isolation, indoctrination, total organization and total regulation.
