Following the collapse of the Soviet regime and its widespread rejection by the Russian people, a new form of narrative was needed, one which both explained the state of existing society and gave a sense of its direction. By examining the imagery contained in presidential addresses, the political system, the public sphere and the urban development of Moscow, Graeme Gill shows how no single coherent symbolic programme has emerged to replace that of the Soviet period. Laying particular emphasis on the Soviet legacy, and especially on the figure of Stalin, Symbolism and Regime Change in Russia explains why it has been so difficult to generate a new set of symbols which could constitute a coherent narrative for the new Russia. 517 3 $aSymbolism & Regime Change in Russia 606 $aRegime change$zSoviet Union 607 $aSoviet Union$xPolitics and government 607 $aRussia (Federation)$xPolitics and government$y1991- 615 0$aRegime change 676 $a320.947 686 $aPOL040020$2bisacsh 700 $aGill$b Graeme J.$0766722 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910822892103321 996 $aSymbolism and regime change in Russia$93963516 997 $aUNINA
