    Cambridge University Press 2002; US$ 32.00

    Russians want both free elections and order. Russia's political elites have had no difficulty in supplying a great choice of candidates and parties, but order has been in short supply.

  • When Majorities Failby Josephine T. Andrews; Randall Calvert; Thrainn Eggertsson

    Cambridge University Press 2005; US$ 30.00

  • Why not Parties in Russia?by Henry E. Hale

    Cambridge University Press 2005; US$ 30.00

    It brings the case of Russia to bear on theories of democracy.

This book demonstrates why Russia stands out as a preserve of nonpartisanship. more...
