A Social Portrait of the Young People of Russia: General Features and Regional Specifics of Property Status
Pasovets, Iu. M.
Russian Education and Society, v53 n6 p66-75 Jun 2011
Survey data on young people in Russia show that there is a weak relationship between their assessment of where they are in the system of stratification and their position according to material indicators. Young people are in general optimistic about improving their position and see upward mobility as possible for those willing to work hard. (Contains 2 figures, 1 table and 1 note.)
