Putin recentralized policy-making and political power through administrative reforms that reduced the power of the regions and shifted that power to the center. Sent to try to manage Russia's Southern Federal District, which includes the particularly troubled republics of the North Caucasus, and then as the Minister for Regional Development, Dmitriy Kozak developed a series of recommendations that, in effect, rejected Putin's recentralization. This article draws on newspaper coverage, World Bank and human rights organizations' documents, and the political science literature to explore the impact that "going South" had on Kozak's policy prescriptions. Chechnya is considered as an approach quite different from the one Kozak sought to put in place
