Jeffrey Hahn examines the degree to which citizens who are elected to local government in the USSR can successfully represent the interests of those who elected them. More specifically, how effectively do the mechanisms available for citizen participation in local government work in practice? What can elected deputies do to respond to the expressed needs and preferences of their constituents? Basing his conclusions on interviews with local deputies, observations of local soviets at work, and the analysis of a wide range of primary source material, the author finds that Soviet citizens do have some chances to participate meaningfully in local government and that a basis exists for the continued expansion of such participation. The elected deputy can and occasionally does play an active role as an ombudsman for those who choose to use opportunities for citizen input. Soviet Grassroots not only contributes to our empirical knowledge of political participation in the USSR but also provides a basis for speculation about the nature of political change in the Soviet system. If opportunities for effective participation in local government do exist, and they can be shown to have grown over time, then one precondition for the emergence of a "civic culture" in Soviet society already exists.Originally published in 1988.The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press.

In Communes and Workers' Control in Venezuela: Building 21st Century Socialism from Below , Dario Azzellini offers an account of the Bolivarian Revolution from below. While authors on Venezuela commonly concentrate on former president Hugo Chávez and government politics, this book shows how workers, peasants and the poor in urban communities engage in building 21st century socialism through popular movements, communal councils, communes and fighting for workers' control. In a relationship of cooperation and conflict with the state, social transformation is approached on 'two tracks', from below and from above. Azzellini’s fascinating account stands out because of the extensive empirical examples and original voices from movements, communal councils, communes and workers.

La 4ème de couverture indique : "Images d’Épinal de la révolution russe de 1917, les soviets restent mal connus. Comment sont-ils nés ? Qui en était membre? Quels étaient leurs rôles? Que voulaient-ils? Nés de la volonté des ouvriers, dans une situation de guerre et de marasme économique aigu, de contrôler la production contre le sabotage des patrons, ils se sont vite heurtés à leur hostilité ainsi qu’à celle du gouvernement provisoire de Kerenski. Ils sont alors conduits à prendre des responsabilités dans la gestion des entreprises et du pays et, au paroxysme de la crise sociale, politique et militaire, à se poser en alternative d’un appareil d’État déliquescent. Ils suivront ainsi un chemin hésitant jusqu’à la crise révolutionnaire d’octobre 1917 où surgit le mot d’ordre bolchevique « Tout le pouvoir aux soviets ! ». L’ouvrage nous propose une radiographie sociale et culturelle des ouvriers de Petrograd, fer de lance de la révolution. Il offre de nombreux témoignages des acteurs de l’époque, y compris ceux d’éléments hostiles à la révolution. Portée par les damnés de la terre, la révolution des soviets a ouvert un immense arc d’espérances dans le monde, avant que la contre-révolution stalinienne ne vienne la saccager et la détruire."
