Status of Moscow in Decisions of the Union and Russian Authorities. 1990-1991
The historical period 1990-1991 in the history of Moscow is full of events, because of which there have been changes in the political, socio-economic and cultural life of the city. In the USSR there was a situation when various political forces were at different levels of government. They could not coexist with each other, because the political system of a totalitarian state was designed for strict subordination, and when they tried to reform this mechanism, a crisis of power at all levels began. The result of such a crisis was at the highest level a «war of laws» between the Union Center and Russia, and local authorities joined this war.
