It means publicity, or openness. When Mikhail S. Gorbachev (1931-) became general secretary of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union in March 1985, “perestroika” (“restructuring”) and “glasnost” (“openness”) programs resulted in changes to the economy , internal affairs and international relations.
