The Russian Presidency of Dmitry Medvedev, 2008-2012

The term "tandem" was used to describe the Putin-Medvedev combination which ruled Russia from 2008 to 2012, when Medvedev was president and Putin prime minister. Many saw Putin as the real wielder of power, with Medvedev as his puppet. Others, however, saw Medvedev as a visionary with great plans. Meanwhile, many in the West regarded Medvedev favourably, giving him credit for raising the expectations of the Russians, making it difficult for the Russian state to return to its old ways. This book presents a comprehensive survey of the Medvedev presidency, covering all areas including politics, the economy, international relations and social developments.
