The 1917 Revolution, the rapid industrialisation of the 1930s, the following devastation of the Second World War, and the present return to Capitalism has seen the deep impoverishment of the entire population. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Kagarlitsky shows how to understand these changes, and how to characterise the complex process of reform, revolution and counter revolution. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Looking in detail at the nature of Russian society and politics since 1990, Kagarlitsky offers an introductory political analysis of the major political and economic developments that have taken place under President Yeltsin, and the legacy he bequeathed so unexpectedly to his successor Putin. He focuses on the role of the media in post-Soviet Russia, corporate structures and their influence on social conflict, the formation of the oligarchy and the role of the left in modern Russia.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Boris Kagarlitsky\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 074531502X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780745315027\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Pluto Press (UK)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/20\/2002\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 312\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.82lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.12h x 5.74w x 0.66d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 04\/15\/2002 pg. 110\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 10\/01\/2002 pg. 352","brand":"Boris Kagarlitsky","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47610953335039,"sku":"9780745315027","price":40.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_810a56c8-9fa3-47dd-b3ca-020eddb24acf.jpg?v=1764510777","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/russia-under-yeltsin-and-putin-boris-kagarlitsky-9780745315027","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
