Iuzovka and Revolution, Volume II
In 1870 the Welsh ironmaster John James Hughes left his successful career in England and settled in the barren and underpopulated Donbass region of the Ukrainian steppe to found the town of Iuzovka and build a large steel plant and coal mine. Theodore Friedgut tells the remarkable story of the subsequent economic and social development of the Donbass, an area that grew to supply seventy percent of the Russian Empire's coal and iron by World War I…

Local Power and Post-Soviet Politics
Professor Jonathan Frankel (1935–2008)
A man of his country and his time
Lev Semionovich Vygotsky created the cultural-historical school of psychology, yet all too few of those writing about his work take into account the family, education, and cultural tradition from which he came. The authors contend that the Jewish nature of these elements was of some importance in forming his personality and his consciousness. The 1st part of the article traces his early upbringing, describes the Jewishness of his environment, not…
The Rise and Fall of Russia's Bourgeoisie
More Power to the Soviets
Workers, Strikes, and Pogroms
Soviet Social Problems
Iuzovka and Revolution. Vol. 1
The Soviet Union
Perestroika from Below
In the wave of social activism that has washed over the Soviet Union in recent years, the strike by some 400,000 coal miners in the summer of 1989 may be the most poorly understood of events. Inter-ethnic conflict in the Caucasus, the movements toward independence in the Baltic

Labor Violence and Regime Brutality in Tsarist Russia
Recent monographs on Russian social development have raised a number of hypotheses regarding our general understanding of processes of political and social change. In his volume on the early history of Russian workers Reginald Zelnik, for instance, proposes that moderate labor unrest reinforced traditional repressive patterns, while extreme conflicts motivated innovative reform. In the work of Robert E. Johnson and of Victoria Bonnell we find the…
Professional Revolutionaries in the Donbass
Political Participation in the USSR
Theodore H. Friedgut scrutinizes mass political participation in the Soviet system, examining in detail the electoral process, the local councils, and the neighborhood committees from 1957 to the present. Originally published in 1979. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve th…
Citizens and Soviets
The focus of this paper is the processing of the Soviet citizen's demands by local authorities, with particular attention to participation of citizens in the social and political structures utilized and the place of these structures in the governing apparatus of Soviet cities and towns. Examination of these grass roots institutions and the conditions under which they operate may yield some measure of insight as to the nature of regime-citizen rel…
Interests and groups in Soviet policy‐making
THE debate as to whether interest group analysis of the Soviet political system is either legitimate or fruitful is only one facet of the general search for political universals to serve as cornerstones for comparative politics. The debate can trace its origins back at least as far as Gabriel Almond's report on research planning by the Committee on Comparative Politics of the US Social Science Research Council. Almond, criticizing the limitation …
