This book tells the untold story of how ordinary Russian people
experienced and coped with Russia's transformations after the end
of communism. Unlike most studies of the subject which focus on
high politics, developments in the elite and events at the centre,
this book, which includes findings from interviews, memoirs, public
opinion surveys and press articles and documents from the regions,
portrays a multi-ethnic, multi-confessional society with different
groups affected by the deep and varied changes in diverse and
different ways. The book covers economic developments, social
changes, how official policies played out at the grass-roots level,
the psychological impact of the changes and the impact on public
opinion, and how different regions were affected differently.
Overall, the book reveals the hidden dynamics of Russian society,
including its formal and informal mechanisms and rules for relating
to the state and other citizens, and shows how millions of Russians
coped, despite all the odds, and maintained the integrity and
stability of the country.
