The Russian Army in a time of troubles
In: International Peace Research Institute, Oslo (PRIO), v. 13
This study of the Russian Army and how it has fared in the uncertain transitional period since independence in December 1991 provides the basis for understanding its present and potential future role in the new political developments within Russia. Starting with a historical overview of Russia's security agenda and an examination of the Russian/Soviet army's tradition of involvement in politics, 'The Russian Army in a Time of Troubles' examines Russia's current security interests and the role of the army in protecting them.
