Content:
"This volume undertakes a systematic analysis of the development of civil society in post-Soviet Russia. An introduction and two historical chapters provide background. The next several chapters analyze the Russian context, considering the roles of media, business, organized crime, the church, the village, and the Russian government in shaping the terrain of public life. Then eight case studies illustrate the range and depth of actual citizen organizations in various national and local community settings. A final chapter weighs the findings and distills some comparisons and conclusions."--Cover p. 4.
