4.3.13 - Resovietization of Russia: News Review

4.3.13 - Resovietization of Russia: News Review


Sovietization

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Sovietization is term that may be used with two distinct (but related) meanings:
  • the adoption of a political system based on the model of soviets (workers' councils).
  • the adoption of a way of life and mentality modelled after the Soviet Union.
...
Most recently the term "Sovietization" is applied in a derogatory sense to processes in Russia 
under Vladimir Putin, with various authors putting various, often mutually contradictory, 
meanings in the word referring to various attributes of the former Soviet Union.
