Nikita Khrushchev and Mikhail Gorbachev both pursued reformist policies during their respective periods as head of state. Although their policies were very different in substance, the political problems they faced in prosecuting reform were quite common.

Both Nikita and Mikhail were clearly dependent for their position and for the implementation of their policies on a party-state apparat whose interests lay in opposing radical reform and in constraining the leader's power.

Both of them, as modern leaders, saw change was inevitable in order for the Soviet Union to keep growing. These reforms were targeting crucial aspects of political life and government structure.
