The Republics and Regions of the Russian Federation: A Guide to the Politics, Policies and Leaders

A presentation of political, economic and demographic data on every territorial unit of the Russian Federation, its local government structure and electoral history. Each entry includes a profile of the president, governor or prime minister, and an overview of local trends.

Russia is divided into seven federal districts encompassing 89 units -- regions (oblasts), territories (krais), and republics. As central power has weakened, the importance of these units and their local leadership has increased commensurately.

This work brings together in one volume all basic political, economic, and demographic data on every territorial unit of the Russian Federation, its local government structure, and electoral history current through the spring 2000 elections and the summer 2000 reorganization. Each entry includes an extensive profile of the president, governor, or prime minister, and an overview of local political trends, policies, economy, and business conditions.
