Many authors have alluded to the unique nature of Russia's dual
transition and its difficult task of simultaneously reforming its
economy and polity. But there is in fact a third transition still
far from completed that is of no less importance, the need to
reconfigure central-regional relations and to create a stable and
viable form of federalism. There are vast economic, demographic and
political variations across the Russian federation. Therefore an
understanding of regions, and the causes and consequences of
cross-regional diversity, is a vitally important dimension of
Russian politics that should not be overlooked. It is only by
studying regional level politics that we can gain a full
understanding of the complexities of Russia's protracted
transition. This edited volume examines regional politics and
centre-regional relations over the period 2000-2010, including the
most recent developments which have taken place under the new dual
leadership of Medvedev and Putin. All eight chapters have been
written by leading experts in the field of Russian politics. In
addition to chapters on regional elections, parties, regional
governors and local politics, there are three chapters devoted to
the important developments which are currently taking place in the
Caucasus. This book was published as a special issue of Europe-Asia
Studies.
