Krátky popis
A lively, inside account of Putin's years of rule and the impending
crisis that threatens his tsar-like regime ",A beautifully written
and very lively study of Russia that argues that the political
order created by Vladimir Putin is stagnating-undermined by
corruption and a failure to modernise economically.",-Gideon
Rachman, Financial Times ",Ben Judah, a young freelance writer,
paints a more journalistic-and more passionate-picture in Fragile
Empire. He shuttles to and fro across Russia's vast terrain,
finding criminals, liars, fascists and crooked politicians, as well
as the occasional saintly figure.",-The Economist From Kaliningrad
on the Baltic to the Russian Far East, journalist Ben Judah has
travelled throughout Russia and the former Soviet republics,
conducting extensive interviews with President Vladimir Putin's
friends, foes, and colleagues, government officials, business
tycoons, mobsters, and ordinary Russian citizens. Fragile Empire is
the fruit of Judah's thorough research: a probing assessment of
Putin's rise to power and what it has meant for Russia and her
people.Despite a propaganda program intent on maintaining the
cliche of stability, Putin's regime was suddenly confronted in
December 2011 by a highly public protest movement that told a
different side of the story. Judah argues that Putinism has brought
economic growth to Russia but also weaker institutions, and this
contradiction leads to instability. The author explores both
Putin's successes and his failed promises, taking into account the
impact of a new middle class and a new generation, the Internet,
social activism, and globalization on the president's impending
leadership crisis.Can Russia avoid the crisis of Putinism? Judah
offers original and up-to-the-minute answers.
