Answer:
In the 1950s and 1960s, the Soviet Union tried to reduce the influence of the policies of the capitalist system.
This period in the history of the Soviet Union is known as Cold War.
At that time, the nation was also working to maintain a stable political organization, promote scientific advancement and maintain popular support.
Explanation:
After the Second World War, the USA and the USSR fought a battle called the Cold War. During this period, both countries tried to establish their control and influence in the world through communist (defended by the USSR) and capitalist (defended by the USA) policies, in addition to trying to prevent the opposite policies from standing out.
One of the biggest reforms that this period provided was the construction of the Berlin Wall in Germany, which divided the city into two sides, one influenced by the USSR and the communist system and the other influenced by the USA and the capitalist system.
In addition to fighting for its influence, the USSR had to fight for popular support within its country, which proved to be unstable in relation to established policies. To this end, the government tried to establish a stable political system and great funding for scientific and academic advancement.

Initially
Explanation:
The strategy to solve this problem is to plug in the choices to the sentence. The word "charmingly" wouldn't make sense as there is nothing in the sentence that gives off feelings of pleasantness or attractiveness.
"Critically" also doesn't make sense as nothing in the sentence connotes disapproval of any sort and, as we will see, there is a better choice available.
"Contrived" (meaning "deliberately created rather than arising naturally or spontaneously") doesn't work as nothing in the sentence tells us how long he took to make this decision.
"Previous" doesn't work because this word wouldn't be able to start of the sentence here, unlike the word "previously."
"Initially" is the best answer because <em>at first</em> he made a decision that he changed later on.
