Abstract

In this comprehensive introductory textbook, the author lays the foundations for understanding Russian politics, outlining key individuals and developments in the country's political history to reveal how contemporary Russia has come to be shaped. Taking a critical approach, the book offers an extensive evaluation of the various components of modern-day Russian government in a clear and accessible format, covering everything from its executive, legislative and judicial branches, to its political parties, parliamentary elections and communication strategies. The third edition has been fully updated and draws on recent events, including Russia's ongoing conflicts near its borders, in-country political opposition, the controversial 2020 constitutional amendments, and other newly established security, economic, social and foreign policies, to highlight the domestic and global challenges facing Russia today.

Abstract

Short chapter-opening cases followed by basic facts, key developments related to the chapter's theme, and related theoretical approaches help students understand key content. Insightful coverage on how the various approaches work together shows students how theories can be applied in a range of contexts. Discussion of empirical studies outside the Western cultural tradition and across a wide range of countries contributes to students' understanding of cross-cultural influences. A separate chapter on gender discusses traditional and evolving views of sex, gender, and sexual orientation. An entire chapter on the clinical domain covers mental health, personality disorders, treatments, and applications relevant to students. Check and Apply Your Knowledge boxes include critical thinking questions that ask students to apply relevant theories to their everyday experiences. Self-reflection boxes ask students to think critically about their own lives, activities, accomplishments, and setbacks-all in the context of chapter content. Chapter-ending Visual Reviews help students understand each chapter's key concepts.
