- Double-weighted statement
- Based on a large grant from the ESRC and several smaller grants from the BA, this 445-page volume represents the fruit of twelve years’ research by a team of ten scholars and archivists. It meets the REF panel’s requirements for double-weighting in two ways. First, drawing on over 5,000 files, most from remote local archives, it compares thirty widely scattered Soviet regions over a thirty-year period. Second, it engages with a voluminous scholarly literature on dictatorship, offering a new perspective on how dictatorships change, on how conflicts within them are resolved, and on how their policies are implemented.
