Militant Russia / Malle, Silvana   Article
Malle, Silvana Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract Ostracism from the advanced international community pursued through a number of measures from early 2014 is largely responsible for the rise of a "militant Russia" whose features mirror patriotic sentiments and attachment to the country's own values, interests and goals. Resentment over the diminished status of Russia and the will to restore the image of a great nation are shared by a large majority in society. Support for the leadership is considerable, though not blind, as suggested by occasional shifts in ratings. The nation withstands external and internal disruptions, changes in foreign policy and economic uncertainties with remarkable endurance and cohesiveness.

Military face of "Militant Russia / Cooper, Julian   Article
Cooper, Julian Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract There is no dispute that present-day Russia is a more assertive power than it was a few years ago. This assertiveness and willingness to stand firm in the face of Western criticism and sanctions has become especially evident since the onset of the crisis and conflict over Ukraine. However, it could be argued that this turn to a more assertive, indeed militant, stance began before 2014. Perhaps the Ukraine crisis simply served to accentuate a trend of development that was already present. Here we explore this issue by looking in some detail at the military face of what can be termed 'militant Russia.'
