The Quest for an Ideal Youth in Putin`s Russia I - The Search for Distinctive Conformism in the Political Communication of Nashi, 2005-2009

Bok av Jussi Lassila
Government-organized yet scandal-stricken, Nashi inspires everything from broad support to a reluctance to accept all implications of Putin's political system. This volume shows how Nashi conceptualizes an "ideal youth" within the framework of an official national identity politics and as an attempt to mobilize apolitical youth.
