Khabarovsk Across the vast land of Russia are scattered a numerous number of large cities and small towns where we can see legendary buildings dating back from the long past. Although much of the invaluable property of the country has been lost, there still remain more than forty thousand officially-recorded historic sites. These historic places vividly demonstrate architectural talents of Russians. Through strenuous recovery efforts, many of the ancient Russian buildings including 12th and 13th century white stone chapels have been restored to their original beauty to charm visitors. In addition, frescos, ornaments and artistic handicrafts worked out in a variety of styles by great artists that typically adorn the medieval Russian churches, and superb architectural examples of ancient Russia displayed at open-air museums all demonstrate their inestimable aesthetic value. The historic, architectural and artistic heritage is the glory and pride of Russia. With an elevated pride in their tradition, the Russians have overcome tumultuous periods. Today democratic Russia is ready for a new transition, mentally sustained by its history and culture, together with its spiritual advancement for more than one thousand years.

Extractions: In the past in Central and East Europe, the state and the Communist Party commanded not only the economy and the usual range of public-sector activities (eg., education), but also controlled almost all other group activities outside the family (Kornai 1980; Nove 1986). After the Soviet collapse, individuals have begun to emerge as basic actors, as in Western market democracies, and the state has begun to be controlled by people rather than controlling them. This lengthy and difficult transformation has proceeded unevenly across the 15 Soviet successor states (Oberschall 1966; Szelenyi and Kostello 1996; Walder 1966; Rona-Tas 1994). Abundant contemporary research is assessing objective changes in post-Communist countries (World Bank 1996; Belarus 1996; Commonwealth of Independent States 1996; Estonia 1995; Lativia 1996; Lithuania 1996). In most of the Soviet successor states, the collapse of the command economy led to a large drop in GNP and the demise of many enterprises. Guaranteed employment, once universal, has vanished (Connor 1991). The market economy has begun to offer attractive opportunities for some, but more so in some industries, and in some of the successor states, than in others (Gellner 1991). As a result, inequality has grown rapidly (World Bank 1996; Kelley and Zagorski 1995), as it generally does after radical revolutions (Kelley and Klein 1982). Thus the differentiation of opportunity is an important feature of the emerging societies.
