| Summary: | A study of the prospects for further democratization in the Russian Federation. Analyzes various indicators of the degree of socio- economic modernization across 89 regions of the Federation, and examines evidence of sufficient social capital to make democracy work. By focusing on social and economic factors which help serve as the basis for democracy, this study readily lends itself to usefulness in comparing Russia with other political systems. Marsh is associate director of Slavic and East European studies and assistant professor of political science at Baylor University.
