description | The evolutionary principle the leaders of this country place, at least in theory, at the core of their action, cannot hide the fact that Russia is in full process of building a new type of state. Stability, preventing sudden changes, security and a peaceful shifting of power are the most important attributes of contemporary Russia. Being convinced they are meant to innovate in matters of political organisation and social construction and especially frightened by the West’s intention to quarter them to the periphery of the world system, the Russians channel a large part of their national energy to trying to avoid classical routes of development. By putting in circulation the concept of ‘sovereign democracy’, Russia, in reality, is building a new type of authoritarianism, exercised in democratic forms but with authoritarian content. |
