Abstract
Russia’s transition from communism to democracy is proving both exhilarating and debilitating, inspiring hope and inducing cynicism and despair. For the first time, the population of that country is consciously attempting to build a Western-style pluralist, democratic system. It is a multi-faceted endeavour, in which the legacy of the past weighs heavily, notably in the field of political organisation.
