Given Russia's shocking invasion of Ukraine in spring 2022, this new, up-to-date edition of a popular textbook on Russian politics under Vladimir Putin is a timely endeavor, shedding light on the Putin regime for students of Russian politics…. As with earlier editions, this volume stands out for its broad scope and updated individual chapters, which are of consistently high quality. It also adds a chapter situating Putin's rule within Soviet and post-Soviet history, strengthening the volume's historical perspective. This volume presents compelling, comprehensive analyses of the Putin regime's deepening authoritarianism and Russian aggression. It will be a top choice for classes on Russian politics at undergraduate and graduate levels for years to come. Highly recommended. Undergraduates, graduate students, and general readers.
