Homo Post-Sovieticus
The surveys that VTsIOM [the Russian Center for Public Opinion Research] has conducted every five years since 1989 as part of the Soviet Man Program, like the center's other surveys, provide scholars with huge amounts of material to consider. Among this abundance of material, a special place is held by findings that indicate what fundamental changes have taken place in the last decade in the behavior, habits, and the very nature of Soviet Everyma…
Soviet Man Ten Years Later, 1989-1999
In March 1999 VTsIOM [the Russian Center for Public Opinion Research] completed its fieldwork on the third research cycle of the Soviet Man Program (which surveyed 2,000 people).1 The first survey in this program was conducted in November 1989 (on a representative sample of the Soviet population; the Russian sample was 1,325 persons), and the second was conducted five years later, in November 1994 (2,957 respondents).2 (The present article compar…
Social Types in the Transitional Period
The purpose of the present article is limited to a discussion of possible ways and means of building a typology—more accurately, various alternative typologies—of the social characters who are active in contemporary Russian society; that is, "Soviet man" and products of his "semidecay." The problems involved in the classification or hierarchical ranking of such phenomena are considered primarily on the basis of individual examples

On 7 December 1987 the Presidium of VTsSPS [the All-Union Central Trade Union Council] and the USSR State Committee on Labor signed a resolution "On the Creation of an All-Union Center for Public Opinion Research on Socioeconomic Issues." This date formally marked the birth of VTsIOM. In reality, of course, its work began later and not on a single day: the selection of staff, the formation of an all-union (at that time) regional network, the deve…
"Homo Sovieticus" Five Years Later
The analysis of economic, social, and political changes taking place in the country should be accompanied by an analysis of changes taking place (or not taking place) at the human level, the level of the person. After all, the strength of the human "material," in the final analysis, determines any society's resources for stability, its capacity for change, and its ability to resist change
Vectors of Change
The results of mass public opinion surveys, both foreign and our own, are most often used to obtain information about real or potential reactions of people to certain events, to changes in the economic, political, and cultural situation, and to the actions of political leaders or the mass media. However, the potential of surveys as an instrument of social knowledge is not limited to this. Under certain conditions—the presence of meaningful concep…
