{"product_id":"a-war-made-in-russia-9781509558407","title":"A War Made in Russia","description":"In this timely and incisive book, Sergei Medvedev argues that Russia's war in Ukraine was not merely a whim of Putin's obsession: rather, it was the result of two decades of authoritarian degradation and post-imperial ressentiment, a culmination of Putin's regime and of Russia's entire imperial history. Building on his prize-winning book \u003ci\u003eThe Return of the Russian Leviathan\u003c\/i\u003e, Medvedev argues that it was not only Putin that started this war, but Russia itself, which, by and large, has imagined and embraced it with enthusiasm, seeking to relive its own military glory and colonial past.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Polity Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/12\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781509558407\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 192","brand":"Sergei Medvedev","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43103848431797,"sku":"9781509558407","price":16.96,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/img_f32a6e49-a71b-40d3-bc48-406e24b28e4a.jpg?v=1693281236","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/a-war-made-in-russia-9781509558407","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
