This article addresses the key features and the state of research in Russian higher education establishments. It examines measures taken to support research in universities and to integrate R&D with higher education since the fall of the Soviet Union.

Corps analyses

The article shows that both the potential and efficiency of research in Russian universities remain rather weak. Recent government initiatives to create a network of elite universities have not been accompanied by the creation of the incentives for institutional change that would promote the development of scientific research in universities.

This article formed the basis for the author's presentation at the seminar "Research Universities: Prospects and Challenges. The Russian and French Experience crossed," organized by IFRI in Paris on 15th December 2010, in close partnership with the New Eurasia Foundation (Moscow).

Commanders of Putin's Long War: Purged, Reshuffled and Disgruntled

Date de publication
10 December 2024
Accroche

The trend of reshuffling the Russian top military command in the course of a fast-evolving and far from successful war has progressed unevenly both across the Armed Forces’ structures and in time. The rationale for and timing of the abrupt cadre decisions made by Commander-in-Chief Putin often defy logical explanation, and the rare official clarifications are no more informative than the usual information blackout.

In addition to a military victory in Ukraine, the Russian leadership is planning to build up sizable troop formations for a possible conflict with NATO in the Baltic region and the Kola Peninsula. In particular, current plans aim for the military manpower to grow by about 350,000, reaching a total of 1.5 million soldiers and commanders. In the context of the current conflict in Ukraine, this cannot be accomplished without a new wave of mass mobilization.
