Russia’s Road to Democracy

Victor Sergeyev and Nikolai Biryukov

in Books from Edward Elgar Publishing

Abstract: Russian democracy in the post-totalitarian era is intimately bound up with the fate of its representative institutions. In Russia’s Road to Democracy, Victor Sergeyev and Nikolai Biryukov assess why the Congress of People’s Deputies, and the other newly elected institutions founded under perestroika, not only failed to prevent, but also seemed to speed up and provoke, the disintegration of the Soviet Union. By studying the early history of the Congress, the book seeks insights on the prospects for democracy in Russia.
