Abstract
The paper investigates oblast-level variations in employment structure accompanying shifts from industrial to services and information-related economic activities in the European regions of the former USSR over the period 1959-1985. Quantitative indices of secondary, tertiary, and quaternary development form the basis for a typology of sectoral development coincident with post-industrial transformation, with 10 categories being identified in the study region. The spatial character of diffusion of higher-level activities is assessed and some factors believed to be relevant to the situation in 1993 are outlined. 8 figures, 27 references.
