  • Postsocialism

    Ideals, ideologies and practices in Eurasia

    Edited by C.M. Hann ...
    Social scientists did not predict the collapse of the socialist system in 1989-91 and their attempts to explain postsocialism have not been comprehensive. Economic disintegration and political instability have been documented, but the deeper causes have often gone unnoticed. Consequently the solutions proffered, such as the promotion of non-governmental organisations as the foundations of 'civil ... Read more

  • National Minorities in Putin's Russia

    Diversity and Assimilation

    by Federica Prina ...
    Series series Routledge Contemporary Russia and Eastern Europe Series
    Using a human rights approach, the book analyses the dynamics in the application of minority policies for the preservation of cultural and linguistic diversity in Russia.

  • Civil Society in Putin's Russia

    by Elena Chebankova ...
    Series series BASEES/Routledge Series on Russian and East European Studies
    Unlike other books on civil society in Russia which argue that Russia’s civil society is relatively weak, and that democratisation in Russia went into reverse following Vladimir Putin’s coming to power, this book contends that civil society in Russia is developing in a distinctive way. It shows that government and elite-led drives to encourage civil society have indeed been limited, and that the ... Read more

    Issue 39: Shifting Territories: Feminism and Europe

Both the revolutions in Eastern Europe in 1989 and the breaking of economic boundaries in 1992 are creating a new Europe; a Europe in which old questions have to be re-asked and old assumptions revaluated. This Feminist Review special issue, Shifting Territories explores these political changes ... Read more

    Edited by Vladislav Inozemtsev, Piotr Dutkiewicz ...
    Series series BASEES/Routledge Series on Russian and East European Studies

Over the past years, there has been a tendency in the global policy community and, even more widely, in the world’s media, to focus on democracy as the "gold standard" by which all things political are measured. This book re-examines democracy in Russia and in the world more generally, as idea, desired ideal, and practice. A major issue for Russia is ... Read more
