The Code of Putinism Audiobook (Free)

What’s Vladimir Putin up to? This book shows how the mentality of Putin and his team-the code of Putinism-has formed Russian politics over the past 2 decades. It clarifies not only the thoughts and suggestions that inspire Putin’s decisions, but also the group of emotions and habits that impact how Putin and his close allies watch the world.

Taylor pulls on a large number of interviews, the speeches of Putin and other top officials, as well as the Russian press to investigate the mentality of Group Putin..LEARNING MUCH MORE about The Code of Putinism Key top features of Russian politics today-such as authoritarianism, Putin’s reliance about a small band of loyal friends and affiliates, state domination of the economy, and an assertive foreign policy-are traced towards the code of Putinism. Crucial ideas of the code consist of conservatism, anti-Americanism, and the importance of a state that is powerful both in the home and overseas. Dominant practices of Putin and his affiliates include control, purchase, and loyalty. Important feelings driving Russia’s rulers are the need for respect, resentment about dropped status and mistreatment from the Western world, and vulnerability.

While some observers portray Putin as the cold-blooded pragmatist or a strident Russian nationalist, Taylor provides a even more nuanced and compelling interpretation of Putin’s motives and actions.
