Notes
This article is based on a major section ("Media Policies") of a study, “Recent Trends in Soviet Policy Towards Printed Media in the Non‐Russian Languages,” which appeared in Radio Liberty Research, Supplement 2184, 7 November 1984. It has been updated to cover the rules in effect for 1986. The statistical tables have also been rearranged and updated to include the 1984 data which became available late in 1985.
