In the wake of the USSR's breakup, the eighty-nine constituent
subjects of the Russian Federation emerged as political players,
grasping power for local policies from a weakened central authority
and electing the legislators who have altered the complexion of the
central government. "Beyond the Monolith" examines the impact of
Russia's emerging regionalism on the political, economic, and
social transformation of the largest of the successor states of the
Soviet Union.
The authors explore significant variations between and
similarities among different provinces; the development of
federalism in Russia; the effectiveness of local government; the
power relationships between the center and the regions; the
differential impact of privatization outside Moscow and St.
Petersburg; and the role of environmental, public health, and labor
market factors in regional economies.
