Presktroika was coined by Gorbachev, it is an initiative to increase and start social programs through reform to meet the societies needs.
The ultimate goal of perestroika, initiated by Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev in the mid-1980s, was to reform the stagnant Soviet economy and political system to increase efficiency, transparency, and responsiveness to citizens' needs. By introducing elements of market economics and decentralizing decision-making, Gorbachev aimed to revitalize the economy while maintaining the Communist Party's control. Ultimately, however, perestroika contributed to significant political upheaval, leading to the dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1991.
