Stoliarov reviews the state of affairs in today's Russia as it strives to become a federal democracy securing the rights and liberties of its citizens, contrasting the two ideas of federalism and dictatorship of power.
Stoliarov presents an analysis of the historical traditions and distinctive features of modern Russian federalism. He reviews the state of affairs in today''s Russia as it strives to become a federal democracy securing the rights and liberties of its citizens. By tracing two contrasting ideas - federalism and derzhavnost (dictatorship of power) - in the legacy of the Russian state, and in relations between the modern federal government and the regions, he demonstrates the need for balance in the delimitation of power. The election in 2000 if Vladimir Putin as President raised doubts about the future of federalism among politicians and citizens, but Stoliarov believes that the development of federalism is the only way forward for this multi-ethnic and multi-religious society. He shows that the strengthening of ''vertical power'' and ''dictatorship of the law'', despite their patriotic appeal, are likely to have a negative effect on the building of democracy and federalism in Russia.
