This book explains the complex reasons behind Russia's turbulent transformation since the dissolution of the USSR. It looks at inconsistent economic reforms, and the failure to establish democratic institutions. It also examines how the US and its allies missed opportunities to support Russia's integration into the global economic system. Drawing parallels with post-WWII Germany and Japan, the book argues that a different approach could have altered Russia's trajectory. With the West facing a prolonged hybrid war with Putin's Russia, it is crucial to understand this history to shape future policies.
