Description
This scholarly work explores the intricate relationship between the development of authoritarian governance in Russia and patterns of contentious political action among its citizens. Bogdan Mamaev provides a comprehensive analysis of how Russian authoritarianism has transformed over time, examining the structural and institutional factors that shape both state repression and citizen mobilization.
The book investigates the mechanisms through which authoritarian regimes maintain control while simultaneously analyzing how populations resist or challenge state authority through various forms of contentious politics. Drawing on historical evidence and contemporary case studies, Mamaev demonstrates the dynamic interplay between authoritarian evolution and popular contention. This Element contributes to broader understandings of political contestation in non-democratic regimes and offers insights relevant to comparative politics and Russian studies.
