What do Russians think about transition?

Abstract

How do Russians assess the past 16 years since the collapse of the Soviet Union and what is their outlook for the future?

According to new research commissioned by the EBRD to assess public attitudes toward transition, Russians most prize the economic and political stability the country currently enjoys. What worries them the most: low living standards, corruption and the decline in health care and education.
