Launched in 1984 after Jamestown's late president and founder William Geimer's work with Arkady Shevchenko, the highest-ranking Soviet official ever to defect when he left his position as undersecretary general of the United Nations, the Jamestown Foundation rapidly became the leading source of information about the inner workings of closed totalitarian societies. Jamestown's work has contributed directly to the spread of democracy and personal freedom in the former Communist Bloc countries. Over the past two decades, Jamestown has developed an extensive global network of such experts, from the Black Sea to Siberia, from the Persian Gulf to the Pacific.
