Trade paperback. Zustand: Very good. [12], 286 pages. Translator's Note. Glossary. Notes. Index. Part of the New Russian Thought Series. Winner of the 2020 Pushkin House Book Prize. Preface to the English Edition. Translator's Note. Russia's relationship with its neighbors and with the West has worsened dramatically under Vladimir Putin's leadership. In this book, Sergei Medvedev argues that this new wave of Russian nationalism is the result of mentalities that have long been embedded within the Russian psyche. Whereas in the West, the turbulent social changes of the 1960s and a rising awareness of the legacy of colonialism have modernized attitudes, Russia has been stymied by an enduring sense of superiority over its neighbors alongside a painful nostalgia for empire. It is this infantilized and irrational world view that Putin and others have exploited, as seen most clearly in Russia's recent foreign policy decisions, including the annexation of Crimea. Sergei Aleksandrovich Medvedev (born December 20, 1966) is a Russian journalist. He is currently an affiliate professor at the Charles University in Prague, and he has previously worked at the Marshall Center for Security Studies in Germany, the Finnish Institute of International Affairs in Helsinki, the Istituto Affari Internazionali in Rome, and the Institute of Europe of Russian Academy of Sciences in Moscow. Medvedev won the 2020 Pushkin House Russian Book Prize for his book The Return of the Russian Leviathan. The book was translated by Stephen Dalziel, and was widely praised in the US and UK. Under Vladimir Putin's leadership, the country has annexed Crimea, begun a war in Eastern Ukraine, used chemical weapons on the streets of the UK and created an army of Internet trolls to meddle in the US presidential elections. How should we understand this apparent relapse into aggressive imperialism and militarism? In this book, Sergei Medvedev argues that this new wave of Russian nationalism is the result of mentalities that have long been embedded within the Russian psyche. Whereas in the West, the turbulent social changes of the 1960s and a rising awareness of the legacy of colonialism have modernized attitudes, Russia has been stymied by an enduring sense of superiority over its neighbors alongside a painful nostalgia for empire. It is this infantilized and irrational worldview that Putin and others have exploited, as seen most clearly in Russia's recent foreign policy decisions, including the annexation of Crimea. This sharp and insightful book, full of irony and humor, shows how the archaic forces of imperial revanchism have been brought back to life, shaking Russian society and threatening the outside world. It will be of great interest to anyone trying to understand the forces shaping Russian politics and society today. English Edition [stated]. Third printing indicated.

Hardcover. Zustand: Very good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Good. 1st Edition. [6] 479 [11] pages. Illustrations (many in color). Some wear and a small tear in dust jacket. Alexei Anatolyevich Navalny (4 June 1976 - 16 February 2024) was a Russian opposition leader, anti-corruption activist and political prisoner. He was recognized by Amnesty International as a prisoner of conscience and was awarded the Sakharov Prize for his work on human rights. Navalny and his team published material about corruption in Russia and organized political demonstrations. In a 2011 interview, he described Russia's ruling party, United Russia, as a 'party of crooks and thieves', which became a popular byname. Navalny and the FBK have published investigations detailing alleged corruption by high-ranking Russian officials and their associates. Navalny twice received a suspended sentence for embezzlement, in 2013 and 2014. Both criminal cases have been widely considered politically motivated. He was barred from running in the 2018 presidential election. In August 2020, Navalny was hospitalized after being poisoned with a nerve agent. He was medically evacuated to Berlin and discharged later. He accused President Putin of being responsible, and an investigation implicated agents from the Federal Security Service. In January 2021, Navalny returned to Russia and was detained. Navalny's suspended sentence was replaced with a sentence of over 2+1 2 years' detention. In March 2022, Navalny was sentenced to an additional nine years in prison after being found guilty of embezzlement and contempt of court. In 2024, the Russian prison service reported that Navalny had died. Patriot is Alexei Navalny's posthumously published memoir, completed from his writings, interviews, courtroom speeches, and letters from prison. It traces his evolution from a young lawyer and blogger exposing corruption to Russia's most prominent opposition leader and ultimately a political prisoner who refused to be silenced. The book is both a personal story and a political document. It is a New York Times bestseller, a National Book Critics Circle Award Winner, and named a best book of the year by The New Yorker, The Atlantic, and NPR. In Patriot, Navalny details his life and career. The first portion of the book is in narrative form about his life and career, while the second portion is in the form of a prison memoir, some of it describing the boredom, isolation, and suffering living in such a prison, but also including reflections on a variety of topics, "from 19th century French literature to Billie Eilish". It also demonstrates his long fight against giving in to despair despite the authorities' punishments, and gives advice on how not to lose hope. The book also includes a manifesto for transforming Russia, which include "free elections, a constitutional assembly, decentralisation, and a European orientation". The last entry in the memoir was made on January 17, 2024, a few weeks before his death. This is a powerful and moving memoir of a fearless political opposition leader who paid the ultimate price for his beliefs. Alexei Navalny began writing Patriot shortly after his near-fatal poisoning in 2020. It is the full story of his life: his youth, his call to activism, his marriage and family, his commitment to challenging a world super-power determined to silence him, and his total conviction that change cannot be resisted--and will come. In vivid, page-turning detail, including never-before-seen correspondence from prison, Navalny recounts, among other things, his political career, the many attempts on his life, and the lives of the people closest to him, and the relentless campaign he and his team waged against an increasingly dictatorial regime. Written with the passion, wit, candor, and bravery for which he was justly acclaimed, Patriot is Navalny's final letter to the world: a moving account of his last years spent in the most brutal prison on earth; a reminder of why the principles of individual freedom matter so deeply; and a rousing call to continue t.…
