The Vladimir Putin regime has framed the Russian national idea in terms of
security and militarization, both domestically and internationally. This unifying
vision emerged as a reaction against the 1990s and blended together a cultivation
of militant and anti-Western patriotism, Soviet nostalgia, and religious
orthodoxy. Emphasis on cultivation of the youth has been another key defining
feature of these efforts. This vision required a growing Russian presence
regionally and globally, which in turn necessitated restoration of Russian
military power. It resulted in growing self-confidence, internal repressions, and
external military interventionism. There are glimmers of hope, but the Putin
regime has shown that it will fight to stay in power, and the cult of
militarization which has permeated multiple aspects of the Russian society will
influence Russia's uncertain future.
