"A very significant contribution to the field of Russian studies.
There is really nothing like it out there. The book also holds
great interest for political scientists who do not work on Russia,
as the findings relate to debates that grew out of studies of
American public opinion. The author has a track record as a
specialist on the communist world whose work has always tested
hypotheses drawn from broader theoretical literatures. He has done
it again. And done it very well."--George Breslauer, University of
California, Berkeley
"First-rate. A brief description cannot do justice to the
richness of the data and analyses in "The Russian People and
Foreign Policy," Moreover, Zimmerman knows the literature on U.S.
public opinion and he succeeds admirably in making comparisons
where it is appropriate to do so."--Ole R. Holsti, Duke
University
"This is an important book for Russianists and those interested
in the effects of democratic transition. It presents very rich and
interesting data and a really important new source for
understanding the changes in Russia through the 1990s. Given the
central role of the debate over democracy assistance within the
U.S. government and NGO circles, the arguments and evidence it
offers will also have appeal to policymakers and others involved in
fostering the Russian transition."--Regina Smyth, Pennsylvania
State University
"This book is of such high quality that I would not be surprised
if its publication will depress future scholarship on the subject
for some time to come. The standard it sets is simply too high for
others to match."--Micahel McFaul, Stanford University
