How Russia is ruled. Revised edition. Cambridge Ma.: Harvard University Press, The search for background literature was in this case a little difficult. Many people have experienced the changes in Latvia in different fields and in a corresponding way as we have. Therefore, many publications cover basically the same, but with different penetration and with different time spans of observation, according to the year of printing. Among the works we have had in our hands, almost all of them have been directly cited in the text, but we have also included some more general texts which showed to be useful. 174
