Abstract

The author asserts that the Russian state is incoherent and that the increasing authoritarian government should not repeat the mistakes of the old Soviet Union. Topics discussed include the rise of bureaucracy in the elite class, forms of resistance from Russians although they do not actively protest, and parallel processes that make an incoherent Russian state including the government's withdrawal from its social protector role, state paternalism and the exploitation of ordinary people.
