The Rhetorical Rise and Demise of "Democracy" in Russian Political Discourse, Volume 2: The Promise of "Democracy" During the Yeltsin Years

by David Cratis Williams, Marilyn J. Young, Michael K. Launer

Russia in the 1990s had a "Wild West" vibe, as reformist and conservative elements struggled for ascendancy. It was a time of heightened media freedom, a burgeoning civil society, and a quest for a new national identity. This volume examines the arc of official political rhetoric during this critical period.
