Abstract

The author follows here the lives of four people born at what promised to be the dawn of democracy. Each of them came of age with unprecedented expectations, some as the children and grandchildren of the very architects of the new Russia, each with newfound aspirations of their own as entrepreneurs, activists, thinkers, and writers, sexual and social beings. The author charts their paths against the machinations of the regime that would crush them all, and against the war it waged on understanding itself, which ensured the unobstructed reemergence of the old Soviet order in the form of today's terrifying and seemingly unstoppable mafia state. Powerful and urgent, this is a cautionary tale for our time and for all time.

Abstract

"This book builds on the strengths of the previous volumes by the same author to provide the most detailed and nuanced account of the man, his politics and his profound influence on Russian politics, foreign policy and society. However, this is not a new edition of the earlier books but is an entirely new work. The focus now is on the dilemmas of power since 2008. There is a brief biographical sketch of Vladimir Putin and much analysis of his ideas and policies, but the book now focuses on the systemic contradictions that have created a blockage on modernisation and a stalemate in politics, Putin's role as Prime Minister since 2008 and his political successes and failures, analysis of the implications of Putin's third term as President and the 2011-12 electoral cycle and the ensuing crisis which led to thousands protesting on the streets This work assesses the achievements and failing of Putin's rule, but above all tries to make sense of contemporary developments. This is the definitive account of Putin and is essential reading for all scholars and students of Russian politics"--

Abstract

Be it for the annexation of Crimea in 2014, the intervention in Syria or the alleged interference in the US presidential election, Russia has been increasingly under the spotlight over the last years. In 2018, the world's eyes will be upon two events: the presidential elections taking place on March 18, and the World Cup, which will kick off in June. While the outcomes of the latter are still uncertain, President Vladimir Putin's victory looks like a safe bet. Even so, these elections bear important consequences for both Russia's domestic and foreign policy, since they will affect Putin's ability to both cement his power at home and pursue his objectives abroad. What are the main domestic and international challenges facing Russia? Will Putin continue to question the Western-championed liberal order or seek reconciliation with the West? The authors of this Report address these key issues, offering in-depth analyses of Russia's political system, economy and society, as well as tracing their evolution and pointing at future scenarios for the EU-Russia relations.

Abstract

"Since its independence in 1991, Russia has struggled with the growing pains of defining its role in international politics. After Vladimir Putin ascended to power in 2000, the country undertook grandiose foreign policy projects in an attempt to delineate its place among the world's superpowers. With this in mind, Robert Nalbandov examines the milestones of Russia's international relations since the turn of the twenty-first century. He focuses on the specific goals, engagement practices, and tools used by Putin's administration to promote Russia's vital national and strategic interests in specific geographic locations. His findings illuminate Putin's foreign policy objective of reinstituting Russian global strategic dominance. Nalbandov argues that identity-based politics have dominated Putin's tenure and that Russia's East/West split is reflected in Asian-European politics. Nalbandov's analysis shows that unchecked domestic power, an almost exclusive application of hard power, and determined ambition for unabridged global influence and a defined place as a world superpower are the keys to Putin's Russia"-- "A look at Russia's foreign policy under Vladimir Putin, analyzing Russia's foreign policy priorities and actions and examining the country's identity construction as a way to understand its political culture"--

Abstract

La politique etrangere de Vladimir Poutine est interpretee a tort comme celle d'un pouvoir sur de lui-meme. En realite, elle ne fait que refleter les fragilites de la Russie depuis l'effondrement de l'Union sovietique. C'est la these de cet essai : bien que conscient de ses faiblesses, le pays ne parvient pas a depasser les complexes qui le hantent. Sur la scene internationale, Vladimir Poutine a certes rendu la Russie incontournable. Secretement, sa force et son insolence seduisent. Mais que cherche-il au juste ? Restaurer l'empire dechu ? Disputer aux autres civilisations le controle du monde ? Quelles sont les vulnerabilites qu'il essaie de masquer ? Comment dechiffrer l'ideologie et les principes directeurs de sa politique etrangere ? Les reponses a ses questions permettent a l'auteur de donner un nouvel eclairage au positionnement de Moscou sur les grands dossiers d'aujourd'hui : la bataille pour l''etranger proche', la rivalite avec le monde occidental ou encore la lutte d'influence dans l''etranger lointain'. Une synthese indispensable pour comprendre les ressorts de la politique etrangere russe contemporaine.
