Our dear friends in Moscow : the inside
story of a broken generation
by Andreæi Soldatov

era imploded and a future full of potential, and uncertainty, stood
in front of them. By the time of Vladimir Putin's second term as president, the country had embraced a kind of ethno-nationalism
and was heading for war at home and abroad. The group is torn
apart by the shift in Russia. Some flee; others become sinister
agents of the ever more aggressive state.
