Abstract

Post-communist Russia is an instance of the phenomenon of authoritarian modernization project, which is perceived as a set of policies intended to achieve a high level of economic development, while political freedoms remain beyond the current modernization agenda or are postponed to a distant future. Why did Russia (unlike many countries of post-communist Europe) pursue authoritarian modernization after the Soviet collapse ? What is the ideational agenda behind this project and why does it dominate Russia's post-communist political landscape ? What are the mechanisms of political governance, which maintain this project and how have they adopted and absorbed various democratic institutions and practices ? Why has this project brought such diverse results in various policy arenas, and why have the consequences of certain policies become so controversial ? Why, despite so many controversies, shortcomings and flaws, has this project remained attractive in the eyes of a large proportion of the Russian elite and ordinary citizens ? This volume intends to place some of these questions on the research agenda and propose several answers, encouraging further discussion about the logic and mechanisms of the authoritarian modernization project in post-communist Russia and its effects on Russia's politics, economy, and society.

Abstract

This book explores how far messianism, the conviction that Russia has a special historical destiny, is present in, and affects, Russian foreign policy. Based on extensive original research, including analysis of public statements, policy documents, and opinion polls, the book argues that a sense of mission is present in Russian foreign policy, that it is very similar in its nature to thinking about Russia's mission in Tsarist times, that the sense of mission matters more for Russia's elites than for Russia's masses, and that Russia's special mission is emphasised more when there are questions about the regime's legitimacy as well as great power status. Overall, the book demonstrates that a sense of mission is an important factor in Russian foreign policy.
