Explore the complexities of Russian politics with this essential guide from ‘The Bookish Owl’. This Very Short Introduction cuts through the headlines to reveal the deep-seated forces shaping Russia’s trajectory, from its vast geography to its position in the global arena. Understand the impact of powerful leaders like Gorbachev, Yeltsin, and Putin, and the often-manipulable nature of its formal institutions. Delve into key themes including the dominance of the state, the historical relationship with the ‘West’, and the enduring consequences of the 1991 Soviet collapse. For anyone seeking a clear, context-rich overview of Russian politics beyond the daily news, this book offers vital insights into a nation in constant transformation.
