<br/><br/>Bank run --<br/>No exit --<br/>Breakthrough --<br/>As if. 
<br/><br/> The Berlin Wall fell in 1989. In one of history's most miraculous occurrences, communism imploded--not with a bang, but with a whimper. Now two scholars of Eastern European and Soviet affairs revisit what happened, in this fresh, incisive look at communism's collapse.
