Abstract

In a chapter based on empirical research carried out by the authors in rural areas of Russia in 1991-2010. shows how ordinary people and authorities reacted to the rapid changes that took place in the country during the period under consideration. Central thesis is that the process of institutionalizing market reforms, which began in the Yeltsin period and continued during the Putin Presidency, has over time created an environment in which rural households could move from “survival” to the development of more “sustainable” household economies.  There is a strong positive correlation between the “legitimizing” of reforms at the grassroots level and support for the general direction of the country. This circumstance serves as a reliable indicator of the support of the authorities on the part of the population
