Glasnost, meaning "openness," was a policy introduced by Mikhail Gorbachev in the mid-1980s aimed at increasing transparency and freedom of expression within the Soviet Union. It encouraged greater public discussion of political and social issues, reduced censorship, and allowed for more open criticism of the government. This shift aimed to foster a more informed and engaged citizenry, ultimately contributing to significant political and social changes in the USSR.
