Abstract

This article considers the publication and distribution system for newspapers, periodicals and journals in the former Soviet Union and how this has changed since December 1991. It looks at the break up of monopoly control, and the progress and problems involved in establishing a democratic and independent publications industry. It covers the problems of the supply of western material into Russia and the CIS, and the supply of Russian and CIS material to customers in the west.
