Publisher's Synopsis
Ages 7 to 14 years. After enduring crushing inflation and unemployment, Russians are looking to the future with hope of a new prosperity. This colourful revised edition takes a look at the new middle class and how the culture has been changing since the change from a state-controlled economy to a free market over the last few decades. New topics include: ethnic nationalisms and instability, life in rural Russia, and games, food, and activities Russians share.
