Summary:
"For decades, the West has struggled to reconcile Russia's 'greatness' with its barbaric behaviour. This is a unique, multi-faceted dissection that strips away the Kremlin's propaganda and reveals Russia's people as well as its psychopathic vertical autocracy--from the chilling legacy of the USSR to the modern petro-tyranny of Putin's regime.Authoritative and sobering, this is a concise guide to understanding Russia and the inventive ways in which Ukraine has neutralised Russia's cultural sabotage - how we can do the same. 30 pre-eminent voices capture Russia's soul--top Kremlin dissidents, key NATO commanders, investigative journalists, leading historians, human rights specialists, a Nobel laureate and the only Duma deputy to vote against the invasion of Ukraine"-- Back cover.
