Written in the spirit of comparative and historical analysis, this
book addresses the relationship between the center and its
provinces?an important issue in any society?using Russia as a case
study. The authors investigate the historical stages of Russia's
past with a special focus on the postcommunist era, a time when the
movement toward regional autonomy (regionalization) is extremely
important as a molder of political and economic life. In addition,
the book shows how historical traditions, on the one hand, and the
new market economy and democratization, on the other, will shape
the relationship between the center and provinces in the coming
decades.Shlapentokh, Levita, and Loiberg direct their attention not
only to factors which shape regionalization, but also to the
effects of this process on many different facets of Russian life.
They argue that regionalization in Russia, as well as in other
countries, is a contradictory process that has both benefits and
drawbacks for social and economic progress.The solid research
foundation draws from a rich body of sources, including Russian
periodicals, statistical yearbooks, work by Russian and Western
authors, data gathered in nationwide surveys conducted specifically
for this project, and insightful observations made by the authors
during their numerous visits to various regions in Russia.
