{"product_id":"civil-society-in-putins-russia-elena-chebankova-9781138950504","title":"Civil Society in Putin's Russia","description":"\u003cp\u003eUnlike other books on civil society in Russia which argue that Russia's civil society is relatively weak, and that democratisation in Russia went into reverse following Vladimir Putin's coming to power, this book contends that civil society in Russia is developing in a distinctive way. It shows that government and elite-led drives to encourage civil society have indeed been limited, and that the impact of external promotion of civil society has also not been very successful. It demonstrates, however, that independent domestic grassroots movements are beginning to flourish, despite difficulties and adverse circumstances, and that this development fits well into the changing nature of contemporary Russian society.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Elena Chebankova\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1138950505\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781138950504\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/23\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 240\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.90lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 6.10w x 0.60d","brand":"Elena Chebankova","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43924224639231,"sku":"9781138950504","price":64.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_c947aeb2-4875-4cd7-92bc-286e06171508.jpg?v=1681069211","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/civil-society-in-putins-russia-elena-chebankova-9781138950504","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
