Description
Highly regarded for its comprehensive coverage, up-to-date scholarship, and comparative framework, Politics in Russia is an authoritative overview of Russia’s contemporary political system and its recent evolution.
Area specialist Thomas Remington focuses on four areas of change in this text—state structure, regime change, economic transformation, and identity—to offer a dynamic context for analyzing the post-Soviet era. With a consistent emphasis on the intersection of politics and economics and the tension between authoritarian and democratic trends, no other text guides students through the complexities and ambiguities of Russian politics today like Politics in Russia.
“If you want a single book for teaching Russian politics, this book is it. Remington’s comprehensive and nuanced knowledge of the Russian polity is matched by few scholars.”–John Willerton, University of Arizona
