Developments in Russian Politics 10, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

The 10th edition of this go-to-text offers critical discussion of contemporary Russian politics and its fundamental principles. It covers established topics such as executive leadership, parties and elections, and also newer issues of national identity, protest, and Russia and Greater Eurasia. Taking a bottom-up approach, Developments in Russian Politics analyses the political system in which Putin's influence can be understood and covers frequently overlooked topics like informal economy, climate change, and gender. The book is organised around the informal politics of hybrid regimes and authoritarianism and accounts for how Russian history impacts contemporary politics in counterintuitive ways, addressing notions of hybrid warfare, disinformation, and election meddling. The chapters have a modular quality, and are designed to correspond to course teaching. Compiled by an international team of specialists and offering key questions, further reading suggestions and a list of up-to-date repositories of video material, the edition will appeal to undergraduate and postgraduate students a from across the world.
