      Rare good Khrushchev idea? It wasn't even his though, iirc it was Zhdanov's. Khrushchev praxis led to opposite, flooding socialist countries with capitalist propaganda, masked as entertainment.

        Well I'm no expert on this particular question but I always felt like Stalin's socialism in one country was opposed to exporting the revolution? Maybe I misunderstood?

          It wasn't even Stalin idea but Lenin, after the Civil War made them unable to help Hungarian, Finnish, Latvian, German revolutions and they all failed it practically proven that the only possible approach was to concentrate on building productive forces - just it was so that the constant onslaught of capitalists made USSR unable to really start on exporting revolution because it found itself in either cold or hot war against reaction for all its existence. Also note what happened at the war with Poland in 1920 - it was ultimate test of Trotsky theory.

          Zhdanov doctrine was about something else, essentially culture war and culture revolution inside USSR against burgeoise influence, but unfortunately it didn't came to pass and Zhdanov died in 1948, due to intentional misdiagnosis and malpractice (possibly part of events that culminated in doctor's plot).
