Russian perception of oligarchs

[Rozov, Mr. Aleksander]

You can begin your reserach with Russian anecdotes. They tend to depict Russian depiction of variety of topics. Try anecdotes.ru. Also go to yandex.ru and type anekdotes. Do the same on rambler.ru, aport.ru and oman (or omen).ru

Subject: [SEELANGS] Russian perception of oligarchs

I'm an undergraduate student looking to do research for a senior year comprehensive
exercise on the perception that Russians have of oligarchs through their emergence in the
1990s and today, and wanted to see if any of you knew of any good sources to begin
looking at for this topic.

I was thinking particularly of any effects that oligarchs have had culturally on the rest of
Russia/normal Russians, and also anything regarding similarities between the oligarchs and
the boyars in ancient Rus' and Muscovy, but in general anything regarding perceptions of
oligarchs would be helpful.

Any thoughts on sources you might know of would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

Brian Mason
