The book explores the challenges of establishing effective and democratic governance in Russia, emphasizing the importance of local self-government. It traces the reform of local governance back to the early 1990s, highlighting the significance of the 2003 Federal Law No. 131, which aimed to enhance the autonomy of municipalities. Despite the proliferation of local governments, the reforms have not fully succeeded, leaving institutions weak and limiting their role in socio-economic development. The text advocates for a robust legal framework to foster improved local governance and address pressing municipal issues.
