Insecurity & the Rise of Nationalism in Putin's Russia : Keeper of Traditional Values Paperback / softback
by Suzanne Loftus
Paperback / softback
Description
This book offers an analysis of Putin's approval ratings from the fall of the USSR to the present day.
It considers contemporary materials, statistics and a discourse analysis to assess how Putin's approval ratings have stayed so high despite the current economic turndown.
Through a comparative analysis with Yeltsin's time in office, the author demonstrates that higher levels of security, a better standard of living, increasingly assertive foreign policy and greater centralization of power led to positive approval ratings for Putin—absent characteristics during Yeltsin’s terms—and fostered 'positive national self-esteem' in Russia, a national sentiment that has persisted through current economic difficulties.
Recommended reading for academics and students of Russian studies in the field of International Relations, Foreign Policy and Comparative Politics.
