Description: "This book is an investigation of how various enterprises in the Russian province of Volgograd (formerly Stalingrad) have responded to the fundamental changes which Russia has experienced over the last decade, and is based primarily on interviews with local managers and other decision-makers. The changes have affected the political and economic systems and the everyday life of Russia's citizens. The book presents the background to these changes and focuses on the regional impact of the transition to capitalism and the market."--BOOK JACKET.
