In Moscow's Shadows

De: Mark Galeotti
  • Resumen

  • Russia, behind the headlines as well as in the shadows. This podcast is the audio counterpart to Mark Galeotti's blog of the same name, a place where "one of the most informed and provocative voices on modern Russia", can talk about Russia historical and (more often) contemporary, discuss new books and research, and sometimes talk to other Russia-watchers.

  • In Moscow's Shadows 190: Sanctions, Spies, and Suspect Legitimacy
    Mar 9 2025

    Reflecting the chaotic and fast-moving nature of the times, another podcast of two parts. In the first, looking at various issues of the week, from Trump's apparent threat to increase sanctions on Russia to a spy case in the UK.

    In the second half, I look at two recent books, Political Legitimacy and Traditional Values in Putin's Russia, edited by Helge Blakkisrud & Pål Kolstø (Edinburgh UP) and Jeremy Morris’s Everyday Politics in Russia. From Resentment to Resistance, (Bloomsbury) and use them to spin off a discussion about legitimacy in modern Russia.

    The piece ‘Recycling to resist,’ I mentioned by Alexandrina Vanke, is in the Sociological Review here.

  • In Moscow's Shadows 189: Oval Office Mugging and Russia's Police in Crisis
    Mar 2 2025

    Much as I would love not to have to keep talking about Trump, it's inevitable that I cover the extraordinary events of this week: Trump as King Lear, demanding obsequious flattery, Zelensky perhaps ought not to have made the trip to DC. So where now?

    And in the second half, the Russian police in crisis, demoralised, under-strength and with corruption again on the rise. Another very real success story of early Putinism, police reform, being devoured by the war and late Putinism.

    The video of the Global Strategy Forum event I mentioned is here, the Sunday Times article (paywalled) is here.

  • In Moscow's Shadows 188: War and Peace and Trump
    Feb 23 2025

    In a more-freeform-than usual episode, I consider the aftermath of the Munich Security Conference, why Trump is such a Putin fanboy (more about being a wannabe strongman than because of any kompromat), and what this means for peace in Ukraine. The summary? There is no deal on Ukraine, and we shouldn't get ahead of ourselves, but there is at least a chance for some kind of a deal. Maybe.

Well researched and well told

It is far between podcasts that are well researched, well presented and without any extraneous fluff. This is right to the point, and the highlight in my podcast queue every time it pops up. Well worth the time spent.

love it

Discovered this two weeks ago and now I'm addicted and happily going through back episodes. Thank you Dr. Galeotti!
