Psychological Factors of Development and Stagnation of Democratic Reforms

The book is a psychological study of socio-political processes in Russia in 1985-2013 through the prism of the traditional Russian mentality. In fact, this is the first book in Russian psychological literature to pose the question of how an individual lived and thought in a specific historical period, and to touch upon a number of socio-psychological problems that seem self-evident to everyone and yet traditionally escape from academic science’s reflection and critical analysis.
The publication is intended for psychologists, sociologists, political scientists and a wide range of readers, it can also be of interest to state, public and political figures of all levels.
