Description: The New Kremlinology is the first in - depth examination of the development of regime personalization in Russia. In the post - Cold War period many previously democratizing countries experienced authoritarian reversals whereby incumbent leaders took over and gravitated towards personalist rule. Scholars have predominantly focused on the authoritarian turn as opposed to the type of authoritarian rule emerging from it. In a departure from accounts centred on the failure of democratization in Russia this book's argument begins from the assumption that the political regime of Vladimir Putin is a personalist regime in the making. Focusing on the politics within the Russian ruling coalition since 1999, The New Kremlinology describes the process of regime personalization that is the acquisition of personal power by a leader. Drawing from comparative evidence and theories of personalist rule the investigation is based on four components of regime personalization: patronage networks deinstitutionalization media personalization and establishing permanency in office. The fact that Russia has gradually acquired many but not all of the characteristics associated with a personalist regime underscores the complexity of political change and the need to unpack the concept of personalism. The lessons of the book extend beyond Russia and illuminate how other personalist and personalizing regimes emerge and develop. Furthermore the title of the book The New Kremlinology is chosen to emphasize not only the subject matter the what but also the how the battery of innovative methods employed to study the black box of non - democratic politics. Comparative Politics is a series for researchers teachers and students of political science that deals with contemporary government and politics. Global in scope books in the series are characterized by a stress on comparative analysis and strong methodological rigour. The series is published in association with the European Consortium for Political Research.
