This program was originally developed by a collective under the direction of the academician Tatyana Zaslavskaya's in 1992–1993.

The journal consists of essays, describing and analysing the results of the different projects. In addition to that there is a tabular part in each issue of the journal to illustrate the outcome of the surveys.

On several pages of the journal, statistics, theoretical articles, discussions and analytical materials of other researches are also being displayed. Another part of the journal examines scientific articles, devoted to the basic aspects of the Russian society. Yuri Levada's articles were constantly published in the journal, often concerning the general idea of "The Soviet Person" (Homo Soveticus), a topic which is still of high relevance for the Levada Center today.
