Russia's provinces have long held a prominent place in the nation's
cultural imagination. Popular culture has increasingly turned from
the newly prosperous, multiethnic, and westernized Moscow to
celebrate the hinterlands as repositories of national traditions
and moral strength. Lyudmila Parts argues that this change has
directed debate about Russia's identity away from its loss of
imperial might and global prestige and toward a hermetic national
identity based on the opposition of "us vs. us" rather than "us vs.
them." In Search of the True Russia offers an intriguing analysis
of the contemporary debate over what it means to be Russian.
