Krátky popis
WINNER OF THE 2016 ORWELL PRIZE ",FINANCIAL TIMES", BOOK OF THE
YEAR Fast-paced and excellently written A much needed,
dispassionate and eminently readable explanation... ",The New York
Times", [A] bold new book [filled with] sparkling prose and deep
analysis. ",The Wall Street Journal", A highly original narrative
history by ",The Economist s", Moscow bureau chief The breakup of
the Soviet Union was a time of optimism around the world, but
Russia today is actively involved in subversive information
warfare, manipulating the media to destabilize its enemies. How did
a country that embraced freedom and market reform 25 years ago end
up as an autocratic police state bent once again on confrontation
with America? A winner of the Orwell Prize, ",The Invention of
Russia", reaches back to the darkest days of the cold war to tell
the story of Russia's stealthy and largely unchronicled counter
revolution. A highly regarded Moscow correspondent for the
",Economist,", Arkady Ostrovsky comes to this story both as a
participant and a foreign correspondent. His knowledge of many of
the key players allows him to explain the phenomenon of Valdimir
Putin - his rise and astonishing longevity, his use of hybrid
warfare and the alarming crescendo of his military interventions.
One of Putin's first acts was to reverse Gorbachev's decision to
end media censorship and Ostrovsky argues that the Russian media
has done more to shape the fate of the country than its
politicians. Putin pioneered a new form of demagogic populism
--oblivious to facts and dangerously manipulative - that has now
been embraced by Donald Trump.",
