The author attempted to estimate the “dry law” introduced by Mikhail Gorbachev in 1985 and possible reasons for that. The book touches upon different topical issues: was it Gorbachev who could change people’s worldview and defeat Russian hard drinking? Did he manage to estimate the whole strength and power of such a profound phenomenon as Russian hard drinking? In general, where did Russian drunkenness come from?
