Summary

The transformation from Communist rule towards democratic development in Russia cannot be fully understood without taking the elites into full consideration. "Elites and Democratic Development in Russia" examines how elites support and challenge democracy and why they are crucial to Russian democracy in particular.In this innovative volume, twelve respected scholars investigate how elites have affected the transition from Communist rule towards democratic development in Russia. They discuss how the elites' degree of integration on national and regional levels may constitute the main condition for the consolidation of the emerging political regime and interpret the complex post-communist elite patterns of behaviour and attitudes into a theoretical framework of elitist democracy.This book will appeal to those interested in democratization, elites, post-Soviet Russia and post-communist studies.
