Securitising Russia shows the impact of twenty-first-century
security concerns on the way Russia is ruled. It demonstrates how
President Putin has wrestled with terrorism, immigration, media
freedom, religious pluralism, and economic globalism, and argues
that fears of a return to old-style authoritarianism oversimplify
the complex context of contemporary Russia. The book focuses on the
internal security issues common to many states in the early
twenty-first-century, and places them in the particular context of
Russia. Detailed analysis of the place of security in Russia's
political discourse and policy-making reveals nuances often missing
from overarching assessments of Russia today. To characterise the
Putin regime as the 'KGB-resurgent' is to miss vital continuities,
contexts, and on-going political conflicts which make up the
contemporary Russian scene. Securitising Russia draws together
current debates about whether Russia is a 'normal' country
developing its own democratic and market structures, or a nascent
authoritarian regime returning to the past. -- .
