To appeal to the dissatisfied, multi-ethnic population of the Soviet Union.</h2>
A comment from the <em>History Channel</em> explains the situation in the USSR when Gorbachev was in power. "In 1985, even many of the most conservative hardliners realized that much needed to change. The Soviet economy was faltering and dissidents and internal and external critics were calling for an end to political repression and government secrecy." As far as the aim of Gorbachev's reforms, "The plan was for the Soviet Union to become more transparent, and in turn for the leadership of the nation and the Communist Party to be improved," according to <em>YourDictionary</em>.
In March 1985, Mikhail Gorbachev proposed policies of <em>perestroika </em>(restructuring) and <em>glasnost</em> (openness) in the Soviet Union. These seemed like policies that leaned in the direction of Western ways of economics and politics. <em>Perestroika </em>meant allowing some measure of private enterprise in the Soviet Union. <em>Glasnost </em>meant allowing a bit of freedom in regard to speech and publication. Gorbachev was not trying to get rid of the Soviet communist system. He actually was trying to prop it up and preserve it, because it was starting to have many problems sustaining itself, and there was too much dissatisfaction and dissent occurring among the country's people. But in the end, opening things up a bit with <em>perestroika </em>and <em>glasnost</em> policies pushed the USSR further in the direction of shedding the communist model under which it had lived for so long, and would begin to spell the end of the USSR.

However, culture and politics are influencing and interacting with each other. While politics determines culture, culture also influences politics in a subtle manner.
The reason why culture affects a society is that culture not only shapes the human nature of people in the society, but also casts people’s world outlook, outlook on life, and values; social customs and ethical morality are gradually formed in the process of cultural influence. Fixed down. In a certain sense, the sociality of a society is a concentrated expression of the social culture. Harrison believes: "Culture is the values, beliefs, and concepts shared by members of a society. These values, beliefs, and attitudes are mainly through the environment, religion, and the adoption of child-rearing practices, religious practices, education systems, media, and The historical accidental factors that were passed down from their peers were formed." The impact of culture on society is in all aspects, from the formulation and implementation of policies and laws, the formation of social ideologies and customs, and the status of interpersonal relationships, while the smaller ones involve the shaping of individual personalities and the establishment of ideological concepts. Behavioral performance and so on. In general, culture will generally affect the status, direction, and speed of a society's activities. When culture succeeds in shaping the customs of a society, then the customs and habits of this society will edify and influence people's ideas, behaviors, and personalities; therefore, there will be such things as Tocqueville. This phenomenon was said to have occurred.
The impact of culture on the path of social evolution is not only crucial to achieving the goal of reducing poverty and injustice throughout the world, it is also a key factor in foreign policy.
