Moscow Maps

Currently, with colleagues Jim Bell (IBS), Vladimir Kolossov, Yelena Shomina and Olga Vendina of the Russian Academy of Sciences, I am investigating the nature of civic engagement in Moscow. A large survey of 28,000 Moscow residents will be completed in Spring 2000. This research, titled "Can Democracy Be Sustained? Civic Engagement, Social Capital and the Future of Democratic Governance in Moscow" is funded by the Geography and Regional Science program of the National Science Foundation.
