Synopsis:

This is an analysis of the transformations occurring in Russia's provinces following the collapse of the Soviet Union. The author brings his perspective as a survivor of the authoritarian system in East Germany to topics such as the spatial context of intended regional transformation, traditional Soviet regional policy, asymmetric federalism, the revitalization of nomenklatura power in the Altai, and the rise of authoritarian power in Russia's gateway to Pacific Asia. The focus is on the tension between economic efficiency and social equality during the process of regional development. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
