Political Culture under Institutional Pressure [electronic resource] : How Institutional Change Transforms Early Socialization /
Bennich-Björkman, L.author.

This book seeks the answer by revisiting an aged political generation growing up in historically unique interwar Estonia but living their adult lives in exile.
