In your own words, describe how the stagnation of the 1970s and Glasnost of the 1980s led to growing resistance to Soviet rule by dissidents within the Soviet Union.

Glasnost was taken to mean increased openness and transparency in government institutions and activities in the Soviet Union (USSR).Glasnost ended the Soviet reign of terror over the citizenry. Soviet citizens were able to speak their minds without fear of imminent incarceration, impoverishment or even death - of themselves and/or their loved ones. In fact, they were encouraged to seek out the truth and make contact with foreigners - activities that previously could have exposed ordinary citizens and their loved ones to extraordinary peril. Glasnost apparently reflected a commitment to getting Soviet citizens to discuss publicly the problems of their system and seek solutions.
