I was in Eastern Europe only a few years after 1989. One of the most interesting things to see was the variety of resistance that's possible to despotic regimes. Alcoholism, feigned stupidity (learned helplessness), work-to-rule, sabotage of equipment, etc., etc. There are a thousand ways for a subject population to dig in its heels. I suspect the Russians know every one of them.
