This book, first published in 1981, represents a systematic attempt to describe and analyse the evolution of Soviet trade union organisations. It examines union activities both at the national level and on the shop floor. The main focus is on the development and workings of the Soviet trade unions, but their history throughout the Soviet period is also covered.

Money Sings explores the sweeping reorganization of Russian life during the initial post-Soviet era by examining the politics of property in the city of Yaroslavl. Through case studies of housing privatization, historic preservation and urban planning, this volume investigates systemic change in post-Soviet Russia.
