Description: Attitudes toward redistribution of wealth in Russia tend to reflect expectations of future mobility, in both directions.  Few Russians expected rising living standards in the 1990s, and most expected a decline in living standards, so there was strong demand for redistribution, even among those currently well off but fearful of the future.
