The dynamic nationalisation of voting for United Russia: The Stability / Instability of Regional Deviations From National Results
Based on the results of Duma and Presidential elections over the period 2003–2016, this article examines cross-regional variation in static and dynamic nationalisation of voting for United Russia (UR). The main finding is that in an overwhelming majority of Russian regions, a high level of static nationalisation is accompanied by a high level of dynamic nationalisation. In most of the regions, voting for UR rises or falls in a consistent manner a…

Russia after the Cold War
The tortuous path of local government reform in the Russian federation
This is an account of the evolution of Russian local government since the emergence of the Russian Federation as a sovereign state in 1991. The three major reforms of local government, in 1991, 1995 and 2003, are discussed in detail, showing how the notion of local autonomy and local government competences received recognition in the law of 1991, and how the principle of separation of local government from the administration of the state was ensh…
Federalism and democratization in Russia
The scholarly literature on democratic transitions has largely ignored developments at the local level and the relationship between federalism and democracy. In this work I examine the development of federalism in Russia and I assess the impact of Russia’s highly asymmetrical form of federalism on democratisation. The study shows that federalism far from promoting democracy has allowed authoritarianism to flourish in many of Russia’s eighty nine …
The CPSU ruling elite 1981–1991: Commonalities and divisions
Based on detailed study of the career paths of 85 party secretaries and heads of departments of the Central Committee of the CPSU, in post between 1981 and 1991, distinctions are made between different types of officials and levels of personnel renewal in various sectors of the party's top administration. The communist party elite was not unitary but segmented, with important divisions and interests. A systemic characteristic of Soviet state soci…
Limitations of party control
This paper demonstrates that the communist party, in terms of personnel, only partially penetrated the government bureaucracy in the USSR. Detailed biographies of 212 members of the Soviet government of ministerial status were analysed into four groups depending on their degree of party work experience, and further analysed in terms of their participation by type of ministry, including the military industrial complex, and by the time and tenure o…
