Russian ‘Liberal’ Opposition: The Divide Be-Tween ‘Radicals’ and ‘Moderates’?

Russian ‘Liberal’ Opposition: The Divide Be-Tween ‘Radicals’ and ‘Moderates’? The paper reflects on the divide emerged amidst the liberal opposition in Russia between the left liberals and the right liberals. The divide is not just about split-up between the radicals and the moderates. It re-flects the crisis of liberal ideas as formed in the 1990s, when the tran-sition to economy based on private property was seen as necessary and sufficient condition for dismantling the command economy and the one-party state. The ultimate issue at hand is the notion of the rule of law and a possibility of wider social consensus on the minimal rule of law threshold. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Transcultural Studies: A Series in Interdisciplinary Research Brill

Abstract

The paper reflects on the divide emerged amidst the liberal opposition in Russia between the left liberals and the right liberals. The divide is not just about split-up between the radicals and the moderates. It re-flects the crisis of liberal ideas as formed in the 1990s, when the tran-sition to economy based on private property was seen as necessary and sufficient condition for dismantling the command economy and the one-party state. The ultimate issue at hand is the notion of the rule of law and a possibility of wider social consensus on the minimal rule of law threshold.
