The Russian Population's Attitude Toward the President's Activities

Abstract

Data from mass surveys on the situation within our country, on popular attitudes toward the activities of this or that political leader, on the ratings of politicians, and so on, appear regularly in newspapers and on television. However, these data are very fragmentary. As a rule, there is no information about where and how the survey was conducted. Usually just the name of the organization doing the study and the size of the sample are given. Therefore, it is impossible to follow the dynamics of these assessments. A series of repeated investigations is necessary.
