The prognostications and forecasts concerning Russia, the nature of the Russian
state and its socio-political life are frequently characterized by the extreme or even dichotomous
polarization, contradiction and volatility. The reasons and explanation for
this can be sought both in the objective (the features of Russian reality) and subjective
(the ways of how it is perceived, conceptualized and problematized) factors, which coexist
and mutually define one another.
