The Parliament and the Cabinet: Parties, Factions and Parliamentary Control in Russia (1900-93
The six dialectical contradictions of 'developed socialism': 1. we do not know unemployment, but no one is working; 2. no one is working, but all production plans are invariably fulfilled; 3. all production plans are invariably fulfilled, but shops are empty; 4. shops are empty, but people manage to get all they want; 5. people manage to get all they want, but they are all discontented; 6. people are all discontented, but when it comes to voting,…
The Crisis of Sobornost: Parliamentary Discourse in Present-Day Russia
Russian political culture has always rejected parliamentarianism. Following the collapse of the Soviet regime, this culture is now in crisis.

The argument is supported by the…
