Abstract

The article reports on new initiatives in Russia to provide state aid for education and social issues. Building renovations and computers in the classroom are among the changes reported in remote towns. Most surveyed are skeptical the programs are politically motivated to keep President Vladimir Putin in office, yet tax revenues have risen in the last six years to $240 billion along with consistent economic growth. It is hoped that the money for education will be sustained past elections.
