A leading American specialist on the Soviet Union and Russia reports on results of a massive (N = 33,869) nationwide survey of a random sample of the adult Russian population in 69 provinces and republics of the Russian Federation. The survey was administered during the three-week period preceding the elections of December 12, 1993. This article focuses on mass attitudes toward economic, political, and ethnic-national issues, exploring as well the demographic correlates of attitudes.2 JERRY F. HOUGH mind. It contained over 60 questions on the socioeconomic position and family background of each respondent, in order to highlight the demographic correlates of attitudes and voting decisions. When combined with aggregate data on the pattern of regional voting, and individual roll-call data on the newly-elected deputies in the Duma, the survey permits us to examine the patterns of thought and the dilemmas of democratization in Russia in far greater detail than ever before.
