| Summary / Abstract (Note) | Sovereign democracy" carries two simultaneous messages to Russian society. The first message says that we are a party wielding state power and a sovereign elite, and the sources of our legitimacy are found in Russia, not in the West, like it was during the 'guided democracy' of the Yeltsin era. Second, being a power-wielding force, we are the guarantors of Russia's sovereignty and survival in the context of globalization and other external super-threats |
