| Summary/Abstract |
Is the topic of populism relevant to modern Russia? Can our conditions
produce the phenomenon that is currently observed in Europe and the
United States, and is generally spreading around the world? And is it
not time to abandon the model based on political parties? These issues
were discussed at a roundtable held in the office of the Russia in Global
Affairs journal and attended by Yuri Vasilyev, Gleb Kuznetsov,
Vitaly Leibin and Oleg Kharkhordin. Fyodor Lukyanov, Russia in
Global Affairs editor-in-chief, moderated the discussion.

| Summary/Abstract |
Equality is one of the key social values in the modern world. It featured
prominently in the foreign policy of the former USSR and great importance is
attached to it in post-Soviet Russia as well. Equality as a principle, value and
purpose is mentioned in all of Russia’s fundamental documents —from the
Constitution to concepts and strategies. But what are the real manifestations
of equality in interstate relations?

| Summary/Abstract |
The West firmly linked the concept of ‘hybrid war’ to Russia after it had
reincorporated Crimea. This happened largely due to the myth that
Russia had a special strategy of confrontation known as the “Gerasimov
Doctrine.” Its existence has already been denied by the authors of the
myth themselves. But the “Gerasimov Doctrine” story is quite indicative:
a similar U.S. hybrid war strategy was passed off as the Russian one. The
main features of this strategy have been studied by the Russian military and
politicians through the lens of “color revolutions” of the 2000s and the Arab
Spring of the early 2010s.

| Summary/Abstract |
In traditional understandings of classical populism, power is commonly
defined as being in need of devolving from the corridors of power and
out to a more grassroots foundation. At its core, populism was usually
seen as a belief in empowering regular people. ‘Regular people’ were
typically defined as being disconnected, if not outright disenfranchised,
from central power and outside the realm of the ‘elite.’ This paper
investigates the modern phenomenon in Russia and America that turns
these traditional concepts completely on their head. Rather than being
a movement engineered against elite political insiders, populism in
America and Russia currently seems to be occupied by the elites of
society. Ironically, these elites position themselves as the chosen
representatives of the disenfranchised. These strange bedfellows have
arguably produced a new form of ‘power populism’: instead of being
focused on removing power from the state, this populism is founded
more upon strengthening the global position of the state while tacitly
dismissing/attacking the perceived intellectual elite of each society.

| Summary/Abstract |
What should one do if he is interest-
ed in world issues, but international
life is basically coming to a standstill,
trying to shy away from a pandem-
ic? To us, the answer is obvious: read
Russia in Global Affairs and use the
intermission to think about what is
happening on planet Earth.
