Follow us Changing Social Priorities and the Increased Salience of the Economy in Estonia
Anderson, Barbara A., and John H. Romani. 2005. "Changing Social Priorities and the Increased Salience of the Economy in Estonia." Nationalities Paper, 33(3): 303-314.
Since 1991, throughout the former Soviet Union marketization has increased, and much of the social safety net has disappeared. Compared with other former Soviet republics, Estonia has fared well. In this paper, we examine the salience and seriousness of various social issues for groups in Estonia in 1996, and we compare the 1996 results with those of a survey that took place in Estonia in 1991 shortly before the coup. We also reflect on the findings in light of opportunities and challenges for Estonia.
