  1. Putinism

    Putinism (Russian: путинизм, romanized: putinizm) is the social, political, and economic system of Russia formed during the political leadership of Vladimir Putin. It is characterized by the concentration of political and financial powers in the hands of "siloviks", current and former "people with shoulder marks", coming from a total of 22 governmental enforcement agencies, the majority of them being the Federal Security Service (FSB), Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia, Armed Forces of Russia, and National Guard of Russia. According to Arnold Beichman, "Putinism in the 21st century has become as significant a watchword as Stalinism was in the 20th."The "Chekist takeover" of the Russian state and economic assets has been allegedly accomplished by a clique of Putin's close associates and friends who gradually became a leading group of Russian oligarchs and who "seized control over the financial, media and administrative resources of the Russian state", and restricted democratic freedoms and human rights. According to Julie Anderson, Russia has been transformed to an "FSB state".Mass de-politicization has been described as an important element of Putinism's social course. The mass social involvement being discouraged, the politics are reduced to "pure management" left to those who are in power, free from the interference of the masses. In exchange for non-involvement in the politics, Putinism's social contract offers limited amount of freedom in the private life.

  1. Putinism

    Putinism, like Putin regime and the Russian mafia state, is a term used in the Western press and by Russia analysts to criticize Vladimir Putin. The terms are used, often with a negative connotation. to describe the political system of Russia under President and, in between his second and third terms as president, Prime Minister Vladimir Putin, where much of political and financial powers are controlled by siloviki, i.e. people with a state security background, coming from the total of 22 governmental security and intelligence agencies, such as the FSB, the Police and the Army. Many of these people share their career background with Putin, or are his personal friends. The political system under Putin was primarily characterized by some elements of Economic liberalism, a lack of transparency in governance, cronyism and pervasive corruption, which assumed in Putin's Russia “a systemic and institutionalized form”, according to a report by Boris Nemtsov as well as other sources. Between 1999 and autumn 2008 Russia's economy grew at a steady pace, which some experts attribute to the sharp rouble devaluation of 1998, Boris Yeltsin-era structural reforms, rising oil price and cheap credit from western banks. In Michael McFaul’s opinion, Russia’s “impressive” short-term economic growth “came simultaneously with the destruction of free media, threats to civil society and an unmitigated corruption of justice.”
