| Abstract |
The major issue of the
project is focused on the study of the autonomy of local government in
Russia's cities (regional capitals) in the wake of the reform of the local
government after 1993. Despite the very fact that 1993 the Constitution of
Russia proclaimed autonomy of local government from the state, practices
of the political development across Russia's provinces show a quite
diverse picture. Thus the understanding of causes and consequences of this
diversity is the major "puzzle" of the research. The analysis is
based on the neo-institutional perspective, compares and combined two
research approaches: The structural and procedural. Structural approach
takes into account objective constrains of the development of local
autonomy in Russia's cities while the procedural approach focuses
attention on interaction of federal, regional and local political and
economic actors during the period of the reform. The case selection
represents different outcomes of local reforms based on the " most
different system" method of the comparative case study. The
preliminary analysis will be ready by October 2000, final results - by
late 2001.
