 | Everyday Law in Russia Everyday Law in Russia challenges the prevailing common wisdom that Russians cannot rely on their law and that Russian courts are hopelessly politicized and corrupt. While acknowledging the persistence of verdicts dictated by the Kremlin in politically charged cases, Kathryn Hendley explores how ordinary Russian citizens experience law. Kathryn Hendley is William Voss-Bascom Professor of Law and Political Science at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. She is the author of Trying to Make Law Matter: Legal Reform and Labor Law in the Soviet Union and more than fifty scholarly articles addressing various aspects of how law works in contemporary Russia. |
