Unfortunately we do not have a summary for this item at the moment

Table of Contents

Part 1 Power: almost too Russian; the most important thing now is reform; this disastrous, vicious circle; what is the alternative?; Tsar Boris. Part 2 State: the law as a tool of dominance; the Russian army is past reforming; a real underground empire; eaten by corruption from top to bottom; they labour in vain that build it; you are the masters of the country; Chechnya is just an excuse. Part 3 Economy: releasing the human factor; the very edge of the precipice; reforms, but not at the people's expense; the creation of a bourgeoisie; a creative period of transition; White Nights; money; the most vigorous and progressive section; who cares anyway?. Part 4 Near and far: the Russian state will never be an empire; a state which only says yes; do no harm. Part 5 Culture: an attempt to be optimistic which failed; the sweet aura of the forbidden; is it a Russian playing?; everything will be OK; the restoration of Russia - that's what art is for.
