Putinomics: The Price of Power in Russia

  • September 22, 2017

The Kremlin has managed to deploy power so ruthlessly at home and abroad in part because of its surprising ability to muster economic resources. In this talk, Miller analyzes the secret to Putin’s success.

Chris Miller is the Research Director and a Fellow in the Foreign Policy Research Institute’s Eurasia Program. He is also Assistant Professor of International History at the Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy at Tufts University. His research examines Russian history and political economy.
