Local Government in the Soviet Union (1987) analyses the Soviet Union's limited success in improving local government. It examines the institutional framework and changes in crucial policy areas, and argues that a fragmented vertical power structure was unproductive.

Offers evaluations of the multiple deficiencies to be found in Russia's sub-national authoritarianism, including: principal-agent problems in the relations between the layers of the 'power vertical', unresolved issues of regime legitimacy resulted from manipulative electoral practices, and the inefficient performance of regional governments.
