Russia's renewal since the collapse of Communism has proved
extraordinarily disturbed, and was marked by escalating conflict
between President Yeltsin and the Congress of People's Deputies
inherited from the Soviet era. This culminated in insurrection and
violence on the streets, and when the main rebels were given
amnesty in February 1994, the situation remained as uncertain as
ever. The contributors to this book analyse a Russia which is
searching for its future amid a maelstrom of complex forces -
political, economic, socio-cultural, and international. They
examine each of these elements of Russia's situation and
investigate the role that each may play in shaping Russia's
fortunes into the twenty-first century. Their overall conclusion is
that, whatever the exact shape of the future, it will be determined
both by elements embedded over many generations, and the influence
of seven decades of communist rule.
