As elsewhere in the world, these protests had unlikely origins, in Russia's case spearheaded by the 'creative class'. This book examines the protest movements in Russia. It discusses the artistic traditions from which the movements arose; explores the media, including the internet, film, novels, and fashion, through which the protesters have expressed themselves; and considers the outcome of the movements, including the new forms of nationalism, intellectualism, and feminism put forward. Overall, the book shows how the Russian protest movements have suggested new directions for Russian - and global - politics. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBirgit Beumers\u003c\/strong\u003e is Professor of Film Studies at Aberystwyth University, Wales, UK.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAlexander Etkind\u003c\/strong\u003e is Professor of the History of Russia-Europe Relations at the European University Institute, Florence, Italy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOlga Gurova\u003c\/strong\u003e is a Research Fellow in the Department of Social Research at the University of Helsinki, Finland.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSanna Turoma\u003c\/strong\u003e is a Senior Research Fellow at the Aleksanteri Institute, University of Helsinki, Finland.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 248\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.55 x 9.21 x 6.14 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e December 12, 2019\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51792159375648,"sku":"9780367874148","price":102.04,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0974\/9764\/5344\/files\/466345986bac3a7304919aabeaba048f.webp?v=1780695474","url":"https:\/\/ebocreations.com\/products\/cultural-forms-of-protest-in-russia-paperback","provider":"The E-Book Oasis LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
