This book examines some of the linguistic changes that have taken place in Eastern Europe since 1991. Most of the papers deal with Russia, which has undergone a particularly complex process of re-adjustment. Though it is early to draw definitive conclusions, the contributions provide a preliminary understanding of the language situation of post Soviet Russia. Of the remaining papers one compares Russian, Ukrainian, one examines Komi Permiak, while one looks more generally at language and society.
