Rezensionen

This in-depth research into one of the Kremlin's most cherished secrets - namely its collaboration with violent Russian neo-Nazis with the aim of strengthening its authoritarian grip on power - demonstrates two major intrinsic features of the Putin regime: its malevolent cynicism closely intertwined with ultimate disregard for human life, and its inexorable drive towards political spectacle that blurs the boundaries between truth and deception. - Anton Shekhovtsov, author of "Russia and the Western Far Right: Tango Noir", Director of the Centre for Democratic Integrity, Austria.
