Soviet sociolinguistics

[Alina Israeli]

The most famous socio-linguist in Soviet times was Bondaletov, as far  
as I know.: http://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D0%91%D0%BE%D0%BD%D0%B4%D0%B0%D0%BB%D0%B5%D1%82%D0%BE%D0%B2,_%D0%92%D0%B0%D1%81%D0%B8%D0%BB%D0%B8%D0%B9_%D0%94%D0%B0%D0%BD%D0%B8%D0%BB%D0%BE%D0%B2%D0%B8%D1%87

He studied ARGO languages, that is professional and secret languages  
of various professions (including blatnaja muzyka, of course).

To my chagrin I don't know of any socio-linguistic studies of  
phonetics in Russian. I would love to see the description of various  
social groups in one city, let's say Moscow, "valley girls" vs.  
working class vs. market salesmen/women.
