Третий путь …к рабству

by Andrei Piontkovsky, Андрей Пионтковский

This is a collection of political essays about modern Russia by Andrei Piontkovskii, a bright publicist and analyst, a member of "Iabloko" for many years until he was expelled for joining the movement "Drugaia Rossiia". He was one of the very first politicians who defined "Putinism as the utmost and the final degree of bandit capitalism in Russia". The author sees as the main problem that Russian rulers have given up on any modernization projects. "We no longer build the Kingdom of God, Communism, or a Market Economy. We are not even going to double our gross domestic product. We are the Great Energy Power. That is all." (0.625 kg.)
