Managing regime stability: The 2018 presidential elections in authoritarian Russia
(University of Tartu Press, 2018) Rogova, Vera
On 18 March 2018, Vladimir Putin was reelected for a fourth term as president of Russia, receiving 77 per cent of the votes. He will remain in office for another six years, up to 2024. While this result did not come as a surprise, political events in the run-up to the election require more attention. Not only did protests take place in cities all over Russia; liberal elites were also strikingly present in both political and economic discussions, occasionally openly challenging the existing system. At the same time, the regime demonstrated a high level of tolerance vis-à-vis such challengers. These observations appear surprising in the context of Russia’s authoritarian political system. The paper analyzes two cases of political confrontation in the context of the 2018 elections: Xenia Sobchak’s presidential campaign and the competition between the economic groupings around the liberal Kudrin and the statist “Stolypin Club”. It can be shown that in both cases, the roots of the seemingly independent political debates can be traced back to initiatives of the existing regime. On the basis of this observation, the paper comes to the following two conclusions: First, a certain level of political controversy is regarded as important for legitimizing the regime. This shows, secondly, that the “electoral authoritarian” regime in Russia has to respond to expectations of its citizens, which include the demand for political options. Overall, this paper suggests that despite its turn to increased authoritarianism and repression in the last years, the Russian government attempts to manage political stability by applying a mix of certain freedoms as well as restrictions.

Securitisation and human rights discourse: violations of freedom of expression during Covid-19 in Central Asia

The purpose of the research is to analyze the legal criteria for constitutionally permissible methods of restricting freedom of expression when combating a pandemic in Central Asian countries. Central Asian states continue to control the flow of information as well as conceal the scale of damage caused by the pandemic, even at such difficult times. Author argues that states have used the pandemic as an excuse to suppress public debate and criticism and to control the media using securitisation discourse. Therefore, this thesis relies on the framework of securitization to understand how the discourse is constructed to legitimise the emergency measures taken under the pretext of stopping the spread of "false" information about Covid-19. An exploratory approach is used as there is limited information on the topic. The author hopes to contribute to the existing literature on securitisation as well as regional studies in the context of the pandemic. The study shows that Covid-19 and the associated state of emergency have been used to divert attention from passing controversial laws and using emergency measures that would be unacceptable in normal times. Furthermore, study explains that people accept the government's rhetoric without suspicion because of the corollary of the historical memory of the Soviet Union, its legacy and its influence on people's perceptions of power. As a result, the laws passed have led to regulations restricting freedom of speech and expression, and freedom of the press becoming excessive and going beyond what is permissible. The author claims that the main problem is that these laws have no time limit and will have a long-term effect. In essence, the research and its method revealed the hidden aspects of political discourse - identifying opportunities for abuse of power.
