“Proud of the Past, Aiming for the Future”
The article, using the example of the Russia International Exhibition and Forum at VDNKh, examines the features of multimedia exhibitions as an instrument of the political communication. It presents an original methodology of studying information content of such exhibitions that adapts the principles of multimodal analysis. According to the authors, assessing characteristics of the communicative resources and their available usage scenarios allow…
Are We Getting Back to the 1990s?” Reframing Russia’s Traumatic Past in the Context of Western Anti-war Sanctions
The article analyses the patterns of framing the 1990s in the discourses circulating in the official Russian public sphere in the first year after the entry of Russia’s troops in Ukraine, that is officially called the ‘special military operation’, and the unprecedented retaliatory sanctions imposed by the West. It seeks to identify probable transformations of the myth that contrasts the turbulence of the early post-soviet period with the stabilit…
Soviet Memories as Part of Regional Repertoires of Usable Past in Contemporary Russia
This article reveals how the official patterns of commemorating the Soviet historical past in Russia match its local projections. Based on interviews with experts from 27 regions and some other field materials, the article maps the diversity of commemorative agendas across Russia. Focusing on the violent aspects of Soviet history, it outlines current configurations of the usable past important for local identity and notably used by regional autho…
Memory of the 1990s as Resource of Adaptation to New Crisis
The article is devoted to the problem of memory functioning as a symbolic resource for adaptation to a crisis as a situation of high uncertainty. The author analyzes public practices of articulating memory about the early period of the post-Soviet transformation when discussing social and economic problems associated with the special military operation in Ukraine, that was declared by president Vladimir Putin on 24 February, 2022, and subsequent …
On Methodological Difficulties when Working with the Concept “Ideology”
The article discusses the methodological issues involved in using the concept of “ideology”, which arise from its complex character. “Ideology” cannot be easily reduced to one single meaning, as far as it bears trails of multiple (and sometimes opposite) meanings that it had got through its long intellectual history. As a result, this concept has a common semantic kernel and varying periphery. While using this concept, one needs not only to sti…
Вспоминая август 1991-го
В статье исследуется роль теледокументалистики в конструировании медиатизированной культурной памяти об одном из ключевых моментов новейшей истории России – попытке отстранить от власти президента СССР М.С. Горбачёва в августе 1991 г. На основе анализа документальных фильмов, которые демонстрировались по центральным российским телеканалам в 2001-2021 гг., прослеживается трансформация интерпретации августовских событий. Авторы предлагают методолог…
Constructing the Collective Trauma of “The Hard 1990s” as a Disregarded Tool of Legitimation for Putin’s Authority
The book The Red Mirror: Putin’s Leadership and Russia’s Insecure Identity by Gulnaz Sharafutdinova is a valuable contribution to the literature on post-Soviet Russian politics, as well as to identity studies. Scholars of international relations largely succeeded in demonstrating the relevance of national identities for foreign affairs. However, there are not so many works exploring their effects for domestic political regimes. Sharafutdinova exp…
Legitimizing Putin’s Regime
This article follows the transformations of the official narrative about Russia’s post-Soviet transition over 20 years of Putin’s stay in power. To detect how the gradual evolution of political regime toward authoritarianism was legitimized, it focuses on comparison of concise narratives articulated in the Presidential Addresses to the Federal Assembly between 2000 and 2020. The method of research is computer-assisted qualitative content analysis…
Celebrating 100th Issue of Politeia
This work represents the views of the prominent Russian political scientists about the past and the future of Politeia. O.Gaman-Golutvina identifies several dimensions that together, from her point of view, define the face of Politeia and allow the journal to fulfill the mission of a development institution. A.Melville pays attention to the continuity and dynamics in the development of the journal and outlines a number of promising directions for…
Конституционный процесс как символическая политика
Конституция – не только политико-правовой документ, но и политический символ, выражающий сложное содержание и порождающий разные интерпретации. В статье дан обзор различных подходов к политико-символическому анализу конституций. Сосредоточившись на изучении соперничающих интерпретаций, автор анализирует старые и новые дискуссии о поправках к Конституции РФ. Исследование основано на материалах официальных сайтов и публикациях печатных и электронны…
Politics of Memory and Nationalism
Scholars of nationalism knew about the role of memory and forgetting in nation building long before the contemporary boom of memory studies. Still, they can learn a lot from this relatively new research field. This article offers an overview of the literature on the politics of memory, focusing on different patterns of dealing with a dark past of genocides, civil wars, and political repressions, on the one hand, and on the observations derived fr…
Yuri Pivovarov’s 70 Year Anniversary
Ключевые слова: Юрий Сергеевич Пивоваров От редакции.Мимо этого юбилея «Полития» пройти не могла.Не только потому, что Юрий Сергеевич Пивоваров входит в наш Редакционный совет.Не только потому, что он стоял у самых истоков нашего издания, возникшего в 1996 г.Не только потому, что еще за десятилетие до того он стал одним из основателей Межинститутской группы сравнительной и ретроспективной политологии «Полития», из которой вырос и журнал, и много …
Memory about the 1993 Crisis and Emergence of the Russian Constitution in the Political Discourse of 2000—2010s
The article continues the project devoted to framing the memory of the “nineties” in the Russian political discourse. It examines one of the most dramatic moments in the history of the post-Soviet transformation — the political crisis of 1993, which resulted in adopting the Constitution that formally is still in use today. The author examines the process of framing the memory of the events of 1993, analyzing publications of the federal print medi…
Framing the Collective Memory of the 1990s as a Legitimation Tool for Putin’s Regime
The article reveals how a sharp contrast between the “turbulent 1990s” and the “stable 2000s” was constructed and exploited by Vladimir Putin and Dmitry Medvedev for shoring up the regime. Using a qualitative content analysis, I demonstrate how Putin’s power was legitimized through three discursive mechanisms of re-presenting the recent past: the coining of buzzwords that became symbolic descriptors of the 1990s; the populist framing of the regim…
Russian Identity and the “Pivot to the East”
The article tests the extent to which Russia’s “pivot to the East” was supported by shared visions of the American and the Chinese “Other” after the annexation of Crimea in 2014. It compares representations of the United States and China as Russia’s Others in discourses of Vladimir Putin, major political parties, and policy experts at a time when Russian–American relations experienced a considerable downturn and relations with China surged. The m…
The embarrassing centenary
This article traces the reinterpretation of the Revolution(s) of 1917 in the official historical narrative of post-Soviet Russia. Its construction is an essentially political process, as its discursive hegemony depends on how it fits into the symbolic landscape created by various social actors. The task of reinterpretation of the revolution is complicated by its centrality for two conflicting patterns of memory politics – the critical “working th…
Rhetoric of Political Leaders as an Indicator of Significance of the Other
Obsession with status and ressentiment
This article analyzes the role of ressentiment in the long-term historical process of Russia’s collective self-identification vis-à-vis “the West”. It argues that ressentiment was persistently generated by the structure of this relationship as long as Russia’s aspiration for an equal status continually proved to be unrealistic. This induced different discursive strategies that are described by social identity theory (SIT) as social mobility, soci…
Creating meanings and traps
To use Benedict Anderson's metaphor, there are different ways to ‘imagine’ the nation. This means that in the same community there might be various competing interpretations of ‘an idea of nation’. They contribute to some kind of ‘repertoire of meanings’, to which participants of nationalist discourses consciously or unconsciously appeal. If so, it is useful to explore the process of shaping and interaction of competing interpretations of ‘an ide…

Ideological Pluralism and the Transformation of the Public Sphere in Post-Soviet Russia
Динамику политических идей в постсоветском обществе трудно понять без исследования той среды, в которой эти идеи производятся, распространяются и соперничают друг с другом. Рассмотрев траекторию развития публичной сферы в России за последние 20 лет и показав, сколь непростым было движение от непризнанного дуализма официальной и неофициальной публичных сфер в СССР к перестроечной публичной сфере, а затем – через конфликтный плюрализм 1990-х годов …

Citizenship and Politicizing of Cultural Differences (Reflections a propos of Some Tendencies in English-Language Political Philosophy)
One of the aspects of modern theories of citizenship comes to attempting to adapt this institution — which traditionally would present one of the principal mechanisms of “universalizing” the status of individuals — to the challenges that have ensued from politicizing of cultural differences. Basing on the analysis of English-language politico-philosophical literature, with, also, some sociological and historical works considered, the author demon…
