Extractions: Last Leader of the Soviet Union Mikhail Gorbachev was born in a small village in southwestern Russia. He became a devoted follower of the Soviet system and attended Moscow State University in 1950. While in school he met Raisa Titarenko who he married in 1953. Gorbachev moved up rapidly through the Communist heirarchy until he became the leader of the Soviet Union in March of 1985. Gorbachev recognized that the country faced many problems. He sought to retain the socialist economic structure of the country, while introducing reforms which he believed would revitalize the stagnating economy. Gorbachev's policies of glasnost(openness) and perestroika(economic reform) led eventually to the demise of the Soviet Union. Although it was not his intent, his new policies encouraged the 15 republics of the union to become more autonomous. They eventually sought independence and on December 25, 1991 Gorbachev resigned as President and the Soviet Union officially dissolved. Although Gorbachev failed to improve the social and economic problems within the Soviet Union, he will be remembered as the man who ended the cold war.

He also worked on a collective farm, which in 1949 exceeded its harvest plan awarding young Gorbachev his first award, the Order of the Red Banner of Labor. Mikhail Gorbachev became a candidate member of the Communist Party the next year and a full member in 1952. Also in 1950, he entered the Moscow State University's Law School and graduated in 1955. In 1967, Gorbachev graduated from the Stavropol Agriculture Institute with an agriculture economy degree and was appointed Second Secretary Stavropol Kraikom, responsible for agriculture a year later. His performance continues to warrant his climb and in 1970, he is appointed the First Secretary of the Stavropol Kraikom and soon after is elected full member of the Central Committee at the 24th Party Congress. With this post, he became the Stavropol Area Representative in the Supreme Soviet in 1974. He traveled to West Germany in 1975 as head of an official delegation, on invitation of a local communist party. By January of 1979, as Secretary of Central Committee in charge of Agriculture following Kulakov's death, Gorbachev was 28th in the Party Hierarchy. In November of that year he became a candidate member of the Politburo. As Head of Agriculture, Gorbachev began work on Brezhnev's 10-year Food Plan in 1980 but several bad harvests left Gorbachev's fate in limbo. Brezhnev's death in 1982 drew attention away from Gorbachev's seeming failures. He then began focusing on other national duties and in 1983, he headed up a Soviet delegation to Canada and later that year, he was left in charge of day-to-day operations while Andropov was on vacation. Gorbachev also headed the crisis management team in charge of the Korean Air Liner incident in Sakhalin.

Mikhail Sergeyevich Gorbachev Brief biographical portrait of mikhail gorbachev, including Internet resources. http://www.historyguide.org/europe/gorbachev.html
Extractions: Mikhail Sergeyevich Gorbachev (b. 1931) Born in the agricultural region of Stavropol (1931), Gorbachev studied law at Moscow University and in 1953 married a philosophy student, Raisa Maksimovna Titorenko. Returning to Stavropol, he moved gradually upward in the local Communist party. In 1970, he became Stavropol party leader and was elected to the Supreme Soviet of the USSR. Regarded as a skilled technocrat and a reformer, Gorbachev joined (1978) the Communist party secretariat as agriculture secretary, and in 1980 he joined the Politburo as the protégé of Yuri Andropov. After Andropov's ascension to party leadership, Gorbachev assumed (1983) full responsibility for the economy. Following the death of Chernenko in 1985, Gorbachev was appointed General Secretary of the party despite being the youngest member of the Politburo. He embarked on a comprehensive program of political, economic, and social liberalization under the slogans of glasnost (openness) and perestroika (restructuring). The nuclear disaster at Chernobyl (1986) forced Gorbachev to allow even greater freedom of expression. The government released political prisoners, allowed increased emigration, attacked corruption, and encouraged the critical reexamination of Soviet history.
