Russia's Stillborn Democracy?: From Gorbachev to Yeltsin (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780199240418)

This is the study of the failure of democracy in Russia after the collapse of the USSR. It traces the origins of that failure into the Soviet period, and shows how Russian political elites built a system which was more about maximizing their own power than opening the system up to popular control.
