Beskrivning
Russian Politics Today: Stability and Fragility provides an accessible and nuanced introduction to contemporary Russian politics at a time of increasing uncertainty. Using the theme of stability versus fragility as its overarching framework, this innovative textbook explores the forces that shape Russia's politics, economy, and society. The volume provides up-to-date coverage of core themes - Russia's strong presidency, its weak party system, the role of civil society, and its dependence on oil and gas revenues - alongside path-breaking chapters on the politics of race, class, gender, sexuality, and the environment. An international and diverse team of experts presents the most comprehensive available account of the evolution of Russian politics in the post-Soviet era, providing the tools for interpreting the past and the present while also offering a template for understanding future developments.

Recensioner i media

'One of the most comprehensive compilations on Russian politics, this richly illustrated textbook that features outstanding contributions from well-known scholars will be of great value to students and teachers. It offers a holistic take on Russian politics going beyond key political institutions and power dynamics. Refreshingly, it covers issues that have been often neglected in mainstream accounts of Russian politics, offering new perspectives on race, class, gender, sexuality, and the environment. The power elite and the socially marginal, the metropolitan centers and the rural backwaters, all come together in this wonderful new volume to give us a nuanced set of perspectives as we grapple with the realities of an autocracy waging a brutal war in Ukraine.' Tomila Lankina, London School of Economics and Political Science
