The term "tandem" was used to describe the Putin-Medvedev
combination which ruled Russia from 2008 to 2012, when Medvedev was
president and Putin prime minister. Many people saw Putin as the
real wielder of power, with Medvedev as his puppet. Others,
however, saw Medvedev as a visionary, someone who envisioned large
scale schemes - even though these schemes have not yet come to
fruition. At the same time, many in the West regarded Medvedev
favourably, and gave him credit for raising expectations among both
the elite and the middle classes in Russia in such a way as to make
it difficult for the Russian state to return to its old ways. This
book presents a comprehensive survey of the Medvedev presidency,
covering all areas including politics, the economy, international
relations and social developments. The author concludes that it is
still too early to assess Medvedev's achievements definitively.
