A vibrant civil society - characterized by the independently
organized activity of people as citizens, undirected by state
authority - is an essential support for the development of freedom,
democracy, and prosperity. Thus it has been one important indicator
of the success of post-communist transitions. This volume
undertakes a systematic analysis of the development of civil
society in post-Soviet Russia. An introduction and two historical
chapters provide background, followed by chapters that analyze the
Russian context and consider the roles of the media, business,
organized crime, the church, the village, and the Putin
administration in shaping the terrain of public life. Eight case
studies then illustrate the range and depth of actual citizen
organizations in various national and local community settings, and
a concluding chapter weighs the findings and distills comparisons
and conclusions.
