Abstract

Sample populations of three areas in Moscow, broadly representative of élite, lower class and central city social-class structures, are surveyed for their attitudes and opinions regarding quality of life issues and matters of governance. The survey is placed in the context of recent reforms of local administrative structures which have been imposed by administrative decree. Political preferences and opinions about local governance are set in the context of reactions to the process of economic reform in terms of the impact on the material circumstances of daily life in Moscow. Results of the recent, 12 December 1993 elections to the new City Duma are set against the results of the survey conducted in October 1993.
