Synopsis

A timely look at Russia’s fragile shift to democracy and what it will take to keep it on track.

This hearing gathers expert testimony on the current state of democracy in Russia and the prospects for its future, with a focus on institutions, elections, and the balance of power.

Two sessions explore how post-Soviet reforms, constitutional questions, and regional dynamics shape Russia’s political path. The discussion weighs risks, reforms, and the hard choices leaders face as the country moves from totalitarian legacies toward democratic procedures.
  • How a new constitution could stabilize or destabilize Russia’s political system
  • The role of elections, media access, and public legitimacy in a credible democratic process
  • The tension between central authority and regional autonomy, including potential subdivisions
  • The challenges of building democratic institutions amid economic upheaval and transition
Ideal for readers of contemporary politics, policy analysts, students studying Russian history, and anyone tracking the evolution of post‑Soviet democracy.
