Description
Explore the intricacies of modern Russia with 'Power in Modern Russia', a compelling analysis that reveals the strategic agenda of the Russian leadership. This insightful book delves into the complexities and challenges faced by Moscow in a world that is increasingly competitive and unstable. With a focus on the concept of 'mobilisation', the author scrutinizes how the Russian government navigates its domestic and foreign policies, offering readers a nuanced understanding of contemporary Russian politics.
Unlike many publications that concentrate solely on the conflict in Ukraine or focus exclusively on public figures like Vladimir Putin, this book provides a fresh perspective. It uncovers how issues are intertwined within the fabric of Russian society and governance, making it essential reading for anyone interested in geopolitics, international relations, or Russian studies. This detailed exploration also critiques Western interpretations of Russia, claiming that many analyses fail to accurately capture the nature of the challenges faced by the Russian state.

Description:
The book explores the Russian leadership's strategic agenda and illuminates the range of problems it faces in implementing it. Given these difficulties and the Russian leadership's concerns about an unstable and increasingly competitive world, the Russian official and expert community often use the term 'mobilisation' to describe the measures that Moscow is increasingly resorting to in order to implement its agenda. The book explores what this means, and concludes that many of the terms used in the Western debate about Russia both misdiagnose the nature of the challenge and misrepresent the situation in Russia. At a time when many of the books about Russia are focused specifically on the war in Ukraine and the deterioration in relations between the Euro-Atlantic community and Russia, or are biographies of Vladimir Putin, it offers a new and unique lens through which to understand how Russia works and how Russian domestic and foreign politics are intimately linked. -- .
