Solomon and Todd S. Foglesong  aColorado :bSweet and Maxwell Asia,c2000  axii, :b: 222 p. : illus. ;c23 cm.  aIndeks : p. 215-222  aIt is hardly a revelation to say that in the Soviet Union, law served not as the foundation of government but as an instrument of rule, or that the judiciary in that country was highly dependent upon political authority. Yet, experience shows that effective democracies and market economies alike require courts that are independent and trusted. In Courts and Transition in Russia, Solomon and Foglesong analyze the state and operation of the courts in Russia and the in some ways remarkable progress of their reform since the end of Soviet power. Particular attention is paid to the struggles of reformers to develop judicial independence and to extend the jurisdiction of the courts to include constitutional and administrative disputes as well as supervision of pretrial investigations. 4aLaw reform--Russia (federation) 4aCourts--Russia (federation)0 aand Todd S.
