The Russian Mentality: As a Fundamental Factor in Russian Management Methods - Paperback

by V. V. Kozlov (Author)

An exploration into the birth processes of the Russian mentality set in juxtaposition to Western mentalities, V. V. Kozlov draws on the works of many eminent philosophers, historians, sociologists and authors in his research. In analysing how the Russian state has changed over the course of millennia, the author focuses on the influence the Russian mentality has had on the development of modern Russian society, including the issues of management and governance, legal nihilism, various types of rights and freedoms, corruption in power structures, personnel policy, and Russia's place an increasingly contradictory world. With interesting arguments on the roots of 'Russophobia' and possible avenues for the future development of civil society, Kozlov's The Russian Mentality is at times illuminating, at others controversial, but never dull.
