Youth Social Activists in the Media Environment
The article considers the role of social activity of young people implemented through the media space. The issues of volunteer activities in the virtual space are studied, allowing to judge the prospects for changing social communications and transforming everyday life through the prism of the virtual space of the media environment. Domestic and foreign areas of studying the media environment are analyzed as indicators of diff erent strategies fo…
The Russian War Machine Fails the Tests of War
The Russian military has failed the tests of the Ukraine war, and its leadership and chain of command are seriously compromised. A costly modernization program failed to deliver the promised superiority in key weapon systems, offensive capabilities are exhausted, and the quality of manpower has deteriorated. The ill-fated reliance on the Wagner Group was a result of this degradation. Nuclear weapons cannot be used to break the pattern of slow-mov…
Russia’s Ambivalent Status-Quo/Revisionist Policies in the Arctic
Russia has been following an Arctic policy that is highly heterogeneous, combining efforts at preserving cooperation with Western neighbors with commitment to building up its own strength. Three distinct policy modes can be identified: realist/militaristic, institutional/cooperative, and diplomatic management. Each mode is based on a particular interpretation of Russia’s various interests in the High North/Arctic: nuclear/strategic, geopolitical,…
Three turns in the evolution of C hina– R ussia presidential pseudo‐alliance
The unique quality of relations between Russia and China cannot be captured by the term “partnership,” but the development of high‐level ties does not signify a process of alliance building. The two states stand, in geopolitical terms, back‐to‐back to each other, as Russia gives priority attention to the confrontation on its Western theatre and China focuses of security matters in East Asia and trade relations with the United States. The China–Ru…

What Drives Moscow's Military Adventurism
Moscow may not be very good at learning lessons from setbacks, and certainly tends to exaggerate its successes, but it has few doubts about the feasibility of ‘military solutions’ and even fewer reservations about reaching for them
Russia's pivot to China goes astray
High-level declarations in Moscow and Beijing on the steady progress in upgrading their strategic partnership depart increasingly far from the reality of shrinking economic ties and diverging political perspectives. In late 2014, the dynamic development of this partnership appeared to have the potential of becoming a major shift in the fluid security balance in the Asia-Pacific region; in late 2015, however, the concerned neighbours have more rea…
Can Russia keep its special ties with Vietnam while moving closer and closer to China
While entering into a deep confrontation with the West in the context of the Ukrainian crisis, Russia has sought to uphold its international profile by upgrading its strategic partnership with China and adding new economic content to it, first of all in energy deals. At the same time, Moscow is aware of the risks related to becoming a minor partner to powerful China and to diminishing its ability to make its own contributions to forming the globa…
Russia's Arctic Ambitions and Anxieties
[P]olicies based on the delusional but popular perception of the Arctic shelf as a ‘treasure chest’ of high-value resources that must be protected by military means have arrived at an inevitable dead end
How Afghanistan was broken
The self-propelling dynamics of violence in Afghanistan, which appears set to outlast the as yet on-going peace-making, is rooted in the impact of the Soviet intervention, in which fighting was only an element of the complex political drama of destruction of the Afghan state. The intervention was launched in response to the escalation of domestic crisis in Afghanistan, about which the Soviet leadership knew much but understood little. The Soviet …
From European to Eurasian Energy Security
Political attention in Europe and the US to the problem of energy security has significantly diminished, and there is more to this shift that just the impact of financial crisis in the EU and the effect of the ‘shale gas revolution’. In the middle of the past decade, some fundamental decisions were made in the European Commission regarding the liberalization and diversification of the energy supplies, but the economic underpinning of these decisi…
A Matrix for Post-Soviet ‘Color Revolutions’
The spectacular and unexpected explosion of revolutionary energy in the Arab world since the start of 2011 makes it more relevant to re-examine the chain of attempts to depose the quasi-democratic regimes in the states that emerged from the break-up of the USSR. Often called “color revolutions”, these attempts brought some remarkable results in the mid-2000s, but—against common perceptions—continue. The analysis shows that the rate of success in …

The South Stream versus Nabucco pipeline race
The plan for the southern energy corridor delivering a new secure supply of natural gas to the European Union is shaped by projects for two pipelines—Nabucco and the South Stream. Economic rationales for both projects are far from solid as the prospects for returns on massive investments are doubtful due to uncertainty about demand. Much political effort has nevertheless been expended on advancing these competing ‘mega-projects’, which have acqui…

From West to South to North
It is hardly surprising that Russia's foreign policy is to a very large degree concerned with relations with its immediate neighbourhoods, which are uniquely diverse and often rich in violent conflicts. This short-range policy is a direct consequence of the country's enormous longitude, which provides it with more neighbours than any other state in the world. Obsession with relations with the United States constitutes an important exception to th…
Defining Civil War by Examining Post-Soviet Conflicts
Great many violent events happened during 1991–2005 in the 12 states that emerged after the collapse of the USSR but only a few civil wars are registered in the major datasets. That brings up a number of questions about the operational definitions of civil war that generally point in the direction of shifting the research attention from refining the quantitative parameters to grasping the essense of the phenomena in question. It is proposed that …

Russia's Restless Frontier
Instrumentalizing Counterterrorism for Regime Consolidation in Putin's Russia
Since the late 1990s, Russia has been among the countries most painfully affected by terrorism and President Putin has shown little doubt and even much enthusiasm in joining the U.S.-led "war" against terrorism. Intertwined as they are, counterterrorism and Chechnya are still significantly different matters in Russian security policy, and this article aims at examining how the struggle against terrorism shapes essential features of Russia's forei…
Putin's Counter-Terrorism
Russia’s struggle against terrorism has been used instrumentally by President Putin for achieving a range of international and domestic political goals. This trademark instrumentalization, however, has been stretched beyond its limits. The stagnant and deeply criminalized hostilities in Chechnya are now resonating across the North Caucasus; for a long time, Chechnya has been an isolated ‘black hole’–but now it is rather the eye of the storm engul…
Russia's experiments and experience in conflict management and peacemaking
The emerging pattern of Russia's peacemaking in the former USSR raises a number of issues. First is the conflicting trajectories of official rhetoric on the one hand, and the military realities of intervention on the other. While in 1992 the rhetoric was quite restrained and the Russian military adopted an interventionist posture, by 1994 the former had become remarkably bellicose and the latter had turned somewhat cautious. The second issue is t…

Assessing Russia's cards
Moscow's growing influence in Central Asia stems from the evolution of the region's five states in close correspondence with Vladimir Putin's semi‐authoritarian model. Absent adequate resources and consistent policies, however, Russia must engage in complicated manoeuvring in order to advance its interests. The result is not overt geopolitical competition with the West—often defined by the tired notion of the 'Great Game'—but rather a series of a…
Examining the ‘terrorism–war’ dichotomy in the ‘Russia–Chechnya’ case
Terrorism has become a part of our habitat but conceptualization of this phenomenon, as well as formulation of a coherent counter-terrorist doctrine, are lagging behind. One reason for this may be a common linking of terrorism with war which reduces the complex dichotomy of these two phenomena to a simple two-step sequence. The article introduces a schematic model of the external formatting context of the ‘war–terrorism’ dichotomy and applies it …

Russia's stance against secessions
Russia's policy towards, and interventions in, secessionist conflicts inside the state, in the immediate neighbourhood, and in Europe generally, has changed profoundly from the early 1990s. It is the fear of disintegration that is now the major factor in Moscow's policy making. Russia is set on the path of strategic retreat, which still allows for some interference, but hardly for constructive engagement. In the near future, there are several spe…

A New Look at Russia in Transition
While at times Post-Soviet Puzzles may be inconclusive or lack coverage of some important issues, it nevertheless presents valuable new perspectives. The low explanatory power of mainstream political studies on Russia and other post-Soviet entities is directly linked to their state-centered approach, so the need for different perspectives is growing. One perspective explores regional processes: these do not necessarily bring about disintegration,…
