The capital cities and the provinces: Images and the possibilities for self-realization
Article Abstract:
A comparison of the images of Moscow and the provinces reveals that there is a kind of 'line of tension' that runs through the basic contradiction in today's Russian society between the rich and the poor. Inspite of this variation, it is cannot be said that there are great gaps that would provide reason to assert an opposition between 'two Russias' that of the capital cities and that of the provinces.
