Tendencies of development of fragmentary political culture

The fragmentary political culture has no any steady tendencies. Process of its development and transformation in democratic culture is inconsistent. On the one hand, tendencies to self-organising, formation of groups are appreciable by interests, industrial, financial, agrarian lobbies, national movements, the religious organisations. On the other hand, various strata of society still too assign high hopes to the strong state. Acknowledgement of it is the growing requirement of an establishment of "the strong power», putting in order and safety in a society. Judging by polls spent to 1995 to connect the well-being with the strong state 64 % of Russians are inclined. Only 26 % interrogated believe that their financial position depends on them. Among the population demand for social guarantees that is shown in nostalgia on доперестроечным to times considerably increases. So, 65 % interrogated believed that the relation of the power to people has worsened in comparison with times of the USSR, and only 4 % have considered that it has improved.

Such moods are a natural consequence of an adverse social and economic situation in the country. By results of the same inspection of 25 % of adult population of the country recently are actually in a stressful condition, constantly having feeling of a hopelessness, fear and melancholy, and 40 more % often happen in a tension, sicken. The mentioned facts explain the reason of mass protest voting of voters on the all-Russian and regional elections against all candidates.

Considerably the tendency of decrease in interest to a policy amplifies. On the first free elections of 1989 more than half of voters in this or that form participated in promotion and discussion

Nominees, 70-80 % knew or represented in general platforms of candidates of the district, more than 30 % got acquainted with the corresponding information. Directly on polling district the decision on voting was accepted by 20 % of voters. On elections of 1990 of such voters one third was already, and on elections of 1993 every second voter has made the decision for whom exactly will vote, is direct in the election day.

At the same time, judging by election campaign of 1995, inclusiveness level in selective process and degree of interest in results of voting have enough increased. So, only 11-15 % of voters were going to come for sites «on a habit», «for the company» and on other little significant motives. 15-20 more % were going to vote to vex the political opponents. Remained two thirds of voters intended to vote, proceeding from motives of performance of a civic duty, desire to support "the" party or "the" candidate. Approximately 25 % of voting voters have declared that will not test any emotions concerning a victory or defeat of this or that candidate. Hence, approximately two thirds of voting voters carry out the choice on the basis of personally significant values and installations. Though not always level of competence of voters, their political sophistication allow them to make a correct choice.
