Two scholars dare to publish an analysis based on facts rather than emotions and are open to reasonable debate about their interpretations of those facts. Drama ensues.

The level of absolutism + vitriol is way too high on far too many natsec issues these days--at precisely the time we need more nuance, pragmatism, and humility. This is a thoroughly unfair attack on a moderate + balanced piece trying to get at historical facts

As they used to say in communist Eastern Europe, you always need three security officers: one who knows how to read, the second one knows how to write, and the third one is there to supervise the two dangerous intellectuals

I never questioned the existence of Russian imperialism, but the number of "Russia decolonizers" resorting to racist attacks for questioning their dogma is abysmally depressing. But hey, if this helps expose the tribalist racism at the core of this ideology, maybe not all is lost

To be fair, this is not wrong. Non-ethnic Russian regions are among the poorest, which means that people are a)more incentivized to volunteer and b)have fewer resources to avoid forced mobilization. But this is about poverty, not Russian vs non-Russian, and won't be fixed by DEI

This precisely. As a minority (Jewish/Armenian) in both Russia and the US who knows what it's like to be "othered", I've always found this academic attitude a bit insulting, a white-savior/liberal-guilt patronization that feels worse than the "othering" it purports to correct

I agree that there is value in all of these cultural niceties - I also believe that Russia and those in Russia who are oppressed have much bigger problems than those that can be fixed by the right pronouns and inclusive language

I fear that the whole 'decolonize Russia' discourse was born when American academics discovered that Russia consists of other ethnicities and in their usual way felt compelled to teach Russians this discovery they made that they are so proud of
How classy, demonstratively alienating natural allies against your common foe right at the time when your country needs all the support it can get. This will go great in an increasingly skeptical Washington.

What a moment.
The hearse carrying Navalny's coffin has arrived at the Moscow church where his funeral ceremony will be held shortly. Mobile coverage has reportedly been disrupted. Huge crowds chanting Navalny’s name and saying “we’re not afraid” #AlexeiNavalny
Thousands of Russians lining up in Moscow to say goodbye to Navalny, a leader who loved his country and showed millions of people a Russia that is worth loving and worth believing in. Thousands of Russians are now showing that hope will never die.

Yulia Navalnaya has already made enormous sacrifices, and thus has no need for virtue signalling or empty promises. In her speech, she pretty much tells it like it is. Alas, that may disappoint a lot of folks, which says more about the state of discourse than it does about her.

The trouble is, while more weapons and aid will help Ukraine defend itself, there can be no guarantees that a country of some 37 million people can ultimately defeat an adversary of more than 140 million...

“But when political and economic constraints limit the resources the West is prepared to deploy, continuing to insist on it may well back Kyiv into a corner, forcing it to choose between peace and a forever war in pursuit of an unclear notion of “victory.’”

Ukraine’s Western allies signal resolve to “defeat” Russia without actually knowing what they mean by defeat. Strategic ambiguity masks what they understand too well: their maximalist goals are unrealistic. Moscow sees this as weakness. My latest in @CNN amp.cnn.com/cnn/2024/02/28…
It is great fortune that Steve continues to work in Russia and the West may yet realize that not all Russians are Putinists, that civil society in Russia is numerous and heroically resisting, and that the war on Putin's second front - with his own people - is very fierce.

Whether they specifically support Navalny or not, whether they have fled the country or stayed, whether they protest or quietly hold on to their hope – millions of other Russians believe that their country has a future. Navalny showed the way. My latest. spectator.co.uk/article/navaln…
This is so true. Vague but bold declarations completely divorced from resources or intent have already done unspeakable damage: making the West look weak in the eyes of the Kremlin and unreliable in the eyes of Ukraine

I am disappointed. Disappointed that the old man droned on for hours without saying anything, but most of all, that Карлсон, a little man who lives on the roof, flying around thanks to a propeller on his back who befriends an imaginative little boy, has not been memed

This is an extremely important book and I’ve been waiting for its publication for the last 3 years. Denys Gorbach will present it online at our CEES seminar at Glasgow on 3 April.
Whichever superlative you want to use, it won't do justice to how important this book is: The Making and Unmaking of the Ukrainian Working Class: Everyday Politics and Moral Economy in a Post-Soviet City | Berghahn Books berghahnbooks.com/title/GorbachM…
@scrawnya I also think that this discourse blossomed because it was a promising grift for otherwise mediocre academics. What better way to gain internet clout and research grants than by trying to fuse woke identity politics and NATO-hawk Russophobia?
@scrawnya @mikkupriyanov Just a continuation of the last 40 years, like trying to convince people the importance of freedom of the press and political competition when they're struggling to put food on the table and may not have indoor plumbing. (Slight exaggeration for illustration purposes)
@scrawnya Also leading to an unfortunate and uncritical acceptance of ethnic and national primordialism as well.
@scrawnya @mikkupriyanov "Complete restructuring(s) of society" also tend to be rather violent affairs, not least because the utopian vision they promise make practically any means justifiable on utilitarian grounds. Can't make a full communism omelet without breaking a few (million) bourgeois eggs, etc.
Absolutely, the whole discourse is replete with flaming illiteracy about history and demography
I fear that the whole 'decolonize Russia' discourse was born when American academics discovered that Russia consists of other ethnicities and in their usual way felt compelled to teach Russians this discovery they made that they are so proud of
@scrawnya It has been strange to see some historians fall into this -- people whose academic training should have equipped them to historicise and situate categories of analysis, rather than extend contemporary American analysis to other parts of the world.
Maybe European politicians can just, you know, be quiet for a bit and talk amongst each other? Just a thought. #EuropeanDefence #StrategicAmbiguityshouldntbediscussedtodeath

1/17 Exactly three years ago, I came back to Russia after treatment following my poisoning. I was arrested at the airport. And for three years, I've been in prison. And for three years, I've been answering the same question.
My piece in today’s @FT ft.com/content/a7a185…
Folks, as you're spinning your quips about Navalny and the Putin regime in your reactions to today's news, please remember that Alexey's family and millions more people are in mourning.
@neil_abrams I find @scrawnya's account on what happened on the Russian side in the early months fairly convincing. Putin didn't commit himself, but gave far right underlings free reign to see what they could achieve cheaply. Russia is responsible, but local participants were necessary.
A few thoughts on the Tucker-Putin interview: Having watched the interview last night, I've been very interested in seeing the reaction here on this site. A lot of people have focused on 'Putin as an autistic history nerd' (good memes here), while others have stuck to variations…
