Description
Summary:The liberal ideology that prevailed in Russia in the 1990s has almost disappeared from both official and public discourse. Back then, there was probably too much freedom without order. However, today both the government and the opposition swear by the ideology of conservatism. It seems that president Putin and the government use conservative discourse to achieve concrete political goals, including the modernization of the country, but under strong leadership, and restoring social order (state, family, religion). They are not criticized for being too conservative, but for not being conservative enough. Where does this criticism come from and what does the conservative opposition in Russia want if it comes to power? If you look more closely, you may be surprised and observe the unlikely synthesis between Soviet ideology and the ideology of the Tsarist Empire.
