What is Democracy and environmental movements in Eastern Europe : a comparative study of Hungary and Russia about?

Democracy and Environmental Movements in Eastern Europe: A Comparative Study of Hungary and Russia is a systematic comparison of environmental activism - and more broadly, collective democratic action - in two former state socialist societies. Based on extensive research, Katy Pickvance offers us a study in contrasts: Russia stands as an example of continuing state centralization, while Hungary has democratized more successfully, which has encouraged citizen action. The book sheds light on the differences between these relatively antithetical regimes and shows how such differences shape broader trends of civil and social action in democratizing nations.
