The Rhetorical Rise and Demise of "Democracy" in Russian Political Discourse, Volume 2
The Promise of "Democracy" during the Yeltsin Years
Samenvatting
Russia in the 1990s had a “Wild West” vibe, as reformist and conservative elements struggled for ascendancy. It was a time of heightened media freedom, a burgeoning civil society, and a quest for a new national identity. This volume examines the arc of official political rhetoric during this critical period.
