Measuring Social and Economic Change in Rural Russia
O'Brien, David J. / Patsiorkovsky, Valery V.
Measuring Social and Economic Change in Rural Russia is based upon nine household surveys in seven rural regions of Russia from 1991 to 2003, including a four wave panel study over an eight year period. The findings that O'Brien and Patsiorkovsky share in this important work are the only long-term indicators of how ordinary people have learned to adapt to an economic system that was thrust upon them when the Soviet Union collapsed.
