Description
Vladimir Putin's leadership has shaped Russian politics over the past two decades. This book explores how his mentality, known as the code of Putinism, has influenced Russia's political system, economy, and foreign policy. The code of Putinism is rooted in conservatism, anti-Americanism, and a strong sense of state power. It also emphasizes control, order, and loyalty among those close to Putin. Taylor draws on interviews, speeches, and Russian media to analyze the mentality of Team Putin, revealing how their thoughts and emotions have driven key aspects of Russia's politics. By examining the code of Putinism, readers can gain a deeper understanding of Putin's motives and actions, as well as the consequences of his choices for Russia.
