analysis, historical context, alternative academic perspectives, and
discussions of emerging solutions from the public, private, and

(Kluwer Law International 2002)

One
of the great transitions as the Soviet Union dissolved involved the
transformation of state broadcasting in Russia and the newly

struggles in Post-Soviet Russia: struggles for journalistic
editorial autonomy, the bloody media wars between the Yeltsin
government and the Russian parliament, the role of the media in the
1993 coup, and the role of the United States, other governments and
non-government organizations in shaping the new media. The story in
which the media oscillates between independence and renewed modes of
control. The book includes more than 200 pages of documents
including decisions and recommendations from the now-defunct
Judicial Chamber for Information Disputes, media statutes and
decrees, and reports and comments by the U.S. State Department and
other media watchdogs.
