Vladimir Putin has explicitly based his nation-building initiatives
on the assumption that there exists a vast pool of common values in
Russia that cut across ethnic and regional divides. Nation-Building
and Common Values in Russia explores whether Putin is correct in
his assumption, and to what degree a "commonality of values" among
the citizens of a country is a crucial element in the establishment
of a common identity among them. The study raises two basic
questions: Which values are actually common among various groups in
Russia's population? And which nation-building strategies are the
Russian authorities actually pursuing, centrally and locally?
Sociological and political approaches to the study of
nation-building and national cohesion in Russia are employed to
answer these questions, and the findings contribute to a better
understanding of nation-building processes in post-Communist Russia
in general and of Putin's strategies in particular.
