Seth Mydans

2004

• March 9 -- Still Missing the Soviet Union
Russia reporter Seth Mydans again notes how much is missed from the days of Communism: "Job security and free vacations disappeared, along with subsidized housing, education, medical care and social services."

• February 16 -- "Stalinist Ideals of…Social Equality"
Seth Mydans has another odd take on Russian history.

• February 9 -- Goodie for Gorby
Seth Mydans' story on a Moscow subway bombing plugs a liberal hero: "The glasnost--or openness--that Mikhail Gorbachev brought to the Soviet Union does not run deep."

• February 5 -- Seth Mydans in Stalinland
The last surviving resident of a central Russian village longs for the good old days of the Soviet Union, writes Seth Mydans: "In his younger years, Mr. Bykov was a soldier, a janitor and a plumber, and the world wasn't such a bad place." Bykov grew up under Stalin.
