Fiona Hill, Clifford G. Gaddy

Mr. Putin: Operative in the Kremlin

Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Many Putin watchers believe that being able to anticipate the quixotic Russian president's next move depends on uncovering the "real” Vladimir Putin. In this revised and updated edition, Fiona Hill and Clifford Gaddy argue that Putin is in fact a man of many complex identities. Drawing on a range of sources, including their own personal encounters, they describe six that are most essential: the Statist, the History Man, the Survivalist, the Outsider, the Free Marketeer, and the Case Officer.
