| Summary/Abstract |
This article examines the emergence of a mobilisational authoritarian regime during Putin's second term. It argues that this development was shaped by the repercussions within Russia of 'velvet revolutions' in former Soviet republics. On the one hand, it traces the growth of the perception that Russia faced an imminent revolutionary threat. On the other, it shows how the Kremlin's counter-measures-the creation of the youth movement Nashi, the imposition of controls on the NGO sector, and the elaboration of 'sovereign democracy' as an unofficial state ideology-were directed against a domestic threat.

| Summary/Abstract |
Russia’s emergence as a leading opponent of universal human rights is one of the defining features of the Putin era. Under the banner of ‘traditional values’, Russian diplomats and clerics have re-forged cultural relativism into a weapon that can be used by repressive regimes to deflect criticism of their human rights records. This article examines the contribution of Nataliya Narochnitskaya, a historian and nationalist politician, to this exercise in authoritarian soft power. By tracing the formation of Narochnitskaya’s ideas and their adoption by state institutions, it demonstrates that the ‘traditional values’ campaign was intricately bound up with the collapse of Russian democracy.
