- Abstract
Just five years ago, at the end of 1999, Russia celebrated the seventy-fifth anniversary of the inception of regularly scheduled radio broadcasting in the country. The landmark offers a good occasion to reflect on the past and present of Russian radio. For most of the twentieth century the medium operated in a totalitarian state characterized by profound social stagnation. For the past dozen years-and at an increasing pace since the anniversary -- the situation has been quite different. This article briefly explores the past differences and the growing present-day similarities between Russian and American radio.
