Abstract
Marie-Rose Belgodere, Social transformations and transition in Russia: "intelligentsias" and employment, 1988-1994. This paper, which examines the job behaviors of the "professionnels" since the 1970's, uses data from the Sociological Institute of the USSR/Russian Federation Academy of Sciences, interviews conducted by the VCIOM, national statistical data and the press. The turning point in employment was seen in 1988 with the adoption of legislation authorizing the first non-state employers since the NEP. In the result three types of behavior are preliminary distinguished: limited protest behaviors, dominant waiting behaviors and significant mobility behaviors, occurring on a small scale with respect to generalized economic depression. These types of behavior are in line with previously observed strategies and expectations, particularly among youth.
