Experts Address Russian Democracy
Wed, May 12th, 2004
Is Russia a democracy? Will Russia be a democracy in ten years? How has Vladimir Putin's rise to power influenced the course of democratic consolidation or the lack thereof? This event will launch the new Carnegie book, Between Dictatorship and Democracy – Russian Post-Communist Political Reform, by Michael McFaul, Nikolai Petrov and Andrei Ryabov, which seeks answers to these difficult, controversial questions.
Michael McFaul , senior associate with the Carnegie Endowment and author of Between Dictatorship and Democracy – Russian Post-Communist Political Reform
Leon Aron , resident scholar at the American Enterprise Institute
Stephen Sestanovich , senior fellow for Russian and Eurasian Studies at the Council on Foreign Relations
George Perkovich , Carnegie Endowment vice president for studies, will moderate the discussion.
