The only Reader on post-Soviet Russian politics, this important book brings together the best published work from a wide variety of sources. Unusually for a Reader, it also includes many up-to-date, specially commissioned contributions. Some forty of the world's leading specialists on Russian politics, a third of them Russians, cover institutional design, elections, parties, federalism, regional politics, presidency and legislature, economic reform and economic interests, foreign policy, public opinion, the mass media, and prospects for democracy.Substantial editorial introductions to every section provide the student with essential background information, detailing the historical development, contemporary relevance, and current debates for each topic area and each individual chapter. The chapters themselves have been carefully selected and edited to be as useful and relevant as possible to all students of contemporary Russian politics,With analysis of major recent developments, including the Duma election of 1999, the Presidential election of 2000, and the institutional changes launched by President Putin, this is the most comprehensive and authoritative guide to political institutions and processes in Putin's Russia.

Recensioner i media

This is a carefully winnowed collection of some of the best articles - Western and Russian - from the second half of the decade ... the selection of the articles and their grouping into twelve sections was a rigorous process. ...The book's aim is to give students of Russian politics easy access to a wide range of material that might otherwise have escaped their attention. In this it succeeds admirably ... Moreover, Archie Brown's introduction to the volume and to each section, as well as his concluding chapter, would make a worthwhile book in themselves.' International Affairs, Oct 2001
