This edited volume provides the first comprehensive analysis of the nature of the relationship between the military and society in post-Soviet Russia. It brings together a multidisciplinary group of leading Western and Russian experts, to investigate both the ways in which developments in the Russian armed forces influence Russian society, and the impact of broader societal change on the military sphere. The outcome of the re-negotiation of Russia's socio-military relationship has been, and will continue to be, a major factor in Russia's democratic transformation and in the evolution of its role on the international stage. This book will provide an invaluable source of material for those interested in all aspects of Russian Studies, as well as student of Security and Military Studies.
