Abstract
This article illustrates some of the transitions in the Russian media from authoritarianism to democracy within a new information order. The goal is to outline the general trends in mass media transitions across the media industry in Russia. The outcomes of perestroika and glasnost policies and the changes in media policy since the collapse of the Soviet Union are examined. As it is much easier to discuss the elements of Soviet control that have been removed, but much harder to define that which has replaced the old ways, a projection of the future role of the mass media in securing democracy and in the forming a new national order is also discussed.
