Elections, the Ethnic Factor and Patronal Politics in the Russian Regions by Stanislav Shkel
This book focuses on the intricacies of elections within Russian ethnic republics and political loyalty in these regions. Many of the ethnic republics support the Russian president and the ruling party to a significantly greater degree than the national average and serve as crucial regional pillars in maintaining the stability of electoral authoritarianism in Russia. Why are non-Russian voters so supportive to the Russian president? How does the ethnic factor contribute to the situation and what are the specific mechanisms involved? Through a comparative analysis of five ethnic republics - Tatarstan, Bashkortostan, Komi, Chuvashia, and Yakutia - the author addresses these questions and uncovers the specific mechanisms of electoral loyalty alongside some erosion of electoral support for the authorities in recent years. This volume will be of interest to readers seeking to improve their understanding of contemporary Russia's political regime, the logics of its sustainability, and potential points of vulnerability, as well as academic scientists and students of modern authoritarianism, ethnopolitics, elections, and Russian politics.| SKU | NLS9781032967691 |

"I was paying $11.99/month for Kindle Unlimited but realized I was renting books, not owning them. Bought this PDF and it's mine forever. Never going back to Kindle."
"Switched from Kindle to these PDFs. Same book, but I actually OWN it now. No monthly fees, no app required. Worth every penny."
"Kindle Unlimited kept raising prices. This is a one-time purchase and the file is permanently on my iPad. Best decision I've made for my reading habit."
"I compared Kindle vs this store. Kindle is cheaper monthly but you don't own anything. Here I paid once and the PDF is mine for life. Highly recommend."
"Left Kindle behind after they removed a book I was reading mid-series. With this PDF, nobody can take it away from me. True ownership feels good."
"Was skeptical about paying $18.95 when Kindle shows $3.99, but then I did the math — Kindle Unlimited is $143/year! This is way better value long term."
"Love that I can read this on any device without installing the Kindle app. The PDF works on my laptop, phone, and tablet seamlessly. So much freedom."
"My Kindle subscription was getting expensive. Switched to buying PDFs here and I'm saving money while actually building a permanent digital library I control."
